    How do you rate Forbes at 147?

    Would you say he's a contender? He carried the 150 lbs weight REALLY well, much better than I thought. If he stays at 147 then there is another good fighter right there.

    140 is his best weight. I don't think he'll be a title holder at 147, a contender probably.

      I think he may be able to capture a title at 140. ODLH shoulda fought collazo instead, that woulda been a much better tune-up. ODLH reallly had no respect for Forbes' power and kept his gloves really low almost the whole fight. So forbes should definitely stay at 140.

        he kind of reminded me of Clottey with his defense but didnt have enough pop to his punches,if he did he couldve just stayed at 147.

          I can't think of one top welterweight I'd pick him against. He just doesn't have the firepower to back any of them up at that weight.
