    Forrest disappointed me in his second fight against Mayorga. He fought scared and I think that's one reason why he lost that fight. But things are different now, Mayorga took a brutal beating from Trinidad that probably has effected him physically and mentally. Forrest seems to be in better shape (mentally) than Mayorga now. I think Forrest would out point Mayorga but I don't see it being easy.

      I can't remember, I last watched it a long time ago...

      115-113 if I recall correctly. Forrest didn't help his case any by flying across the ring with every punch that Mayorga landed. Obviously he wasn't hurt everytime that happened. Obviously he was hurt at other times. It's hard to take credit away from Mayorga for those shots considering it was Forrest who was willingly flying across the ring.

      Even so, it might have been bad scoring, but it wasn't a robbery. Robbery = foul play. I don't think there was any before their second fight.

        But it's true that it probably didn't matter in the first fight. Forrest didn't try to box, he tried to slug with Mayorga. So, so, so ****** on his part. Just ridiculously dumb.
        Yeah, he should have started boxing when he felt Mayorgas power at the end of the first. L. Lewis made the same mistake against Mccall. **** happens. lol

          Mayorga has been stopped about 2 or 3 times since he fought Forrest so i don't think hes the same. and Forrest look like hes still in his prime judging by the way he beat Boldimer.
