    Deandre Latimore Targets a Vernon Forrest Clash

    LAS VEGAS, NV - World ranked junior middleweight Deandre “THE BULL” Latimore, training diligently in the summer heat of Las Vegas, took a break recently and headed to the nearby MGM Grand Garden Arena for the second junior middleweight clash between Vernon Forrest and Sergio Mora on September 13th.

    Has Forrest said anything lately about who he wants to fight other than
    Juan Manuel Marquez?

    I would think he would want a money fight and Latimore is somewhat of an unknown to this point.

      Latimore is right those 2 fights were HORRIBLE. I'm sure Vernon won't fight him due to the fact there is no money in it and it's a dangerous fight. These are the fights we need though in Boxing old guard vs the new guard. If this don't go off why not have P-Will fight Vernon at 54 for the belt. 54 could be very exciting in the coming years tons of prospects coming through in the 54 pound class.

        Sechew Powell was too busy gettin high to take Lattimore seriously.
        But if Lattimore has another fight like that, he could be a new name in the division.

        You're right I don't see Forrest taking this fight.

          Forrest and Williams have the same manager and won't fight each other. Aside from that, Forrest refuses to fight southpaws. Check his record.

            I wouldn't mind watching the viper take on Santos...Interesting fight. Fighting against Latimore is unlikely

              Well Santos is a southpaw, and Scott9945, Vernon's Forrest's manager
              says he doesn't fight lefties

                    What about Verno Philips? Not to risky for Vernon. I rather put Vernon with Santos but won't happen.
