After the Contender, he was dropped by Archak, then beat Eric Regan, drew with Ayala, and beat some Ruvalcaba guy coming off a first round KO to Jose Luis Zertuche.

    To defend that record against a former Fighter of the Year who beat former world champs Piccirillo and Baldomir in his last 2 fights is difficult to do. If anything, Forrest has been fighting at a much higher level and performing more consistently.

    Forrest was the FOY over five years ago in 2002. If you discount the very dubious Quartey win, he hasn't beaten anyone of note since Mosley. While I can't quite pick Mora to win at 154, I'll stand by this being a tough fight for VF.

    Forrest has been flattered lately by made to order competition. I think Mora makes him work hard for the win. BTW, Mora won his last fight by TKO.

    Are you serious?

    Unfortunately, my best that I need to cover have me left at only about 90,000. How about 100K?
