    Why won't Vernon Forrest fight Sergio Martinez?

    He seems to be ducking him.

    Judging from the last performance by each, Martinez is much, much better than Sergio Mora.

    Will we ever see Martinez vs. Forrest?

    Martinez would destroy Vernon Forrest. I don't like to call fighter's ducking each other, but this might be the case.

      Tough fight for little money, would be my guess for him not wanting to fight Martinez.

        Martinez would make Forrest look his age basically. Martinez is a bad mofo. I think he may have screwed himself putting on a performance like he did.

        On another note, is Joe Greene really 5'10? The times ive seen him fight, he's always looked 5'7 - 5'8

              They should probe Margarito's chin for steroids.....or titanium.

                    Martinez is young and has a good chance to beat Forrest.

                    Forrest doesn't want it to be over yet.

                    Simple as that.
