    Could Vernon Forrest Beat Floyd Mayweather

    would Vernon Forrest Beat Floyd Mayweather ? this is a guy who knows how to neutralise speed ,he did it against Mosley & proceeded to dominate the fight with his JAB

    Floyd was troubled by the Jab against Oscar ,although i do attribute a lot of Dela Hoya's fatigue to Floyd's brilliant defence

    I think Forrest has a better chance than any other fighter currently to beat Floyd.

          After watching his last 3 fights,no,he cannot,the best fighters who have the chance to beat Floyd are Cotto & Paul Williams,i think Williams has a better chance then Cotto,just because of his size,amount of punches he throws and chin,hard to beat the guy

            Mosley had a **** defense and wasn't nearly as elusive/accurate Floyd is.

                    I think it has been established that Vernon Forrest has the best style to foil Floyd. To bad that fight won't happen.
