      flame me but this was ******ity. A guy pulls a gun out on you and you go chase him with your own gun. Someone was going to die! Forrest took a big risk and was careless in his actions. IF he thought with his head on straight he'd realize he has enough money to not even worry about a ***en wallet and let them run off. He couldn't control that he was a target of a robbery but it was clear that the people stealing his wallet did not want to kill him or the killer would have shot him point blank there and take his wallet. Chasing him brought on a whole new event.

        Unfortunately true. Vernon died over a wallet. Tragic and needless.

              Easy to say what he should have done when not in the situation. You never know, you could of did the same thing he did. It's a split second decision.

                Haven't seen him fight for full 12 rounds though. Sad day for boxing. RIP Vernon.

                  You do have a point there. He would still probably have a lot of money if he would've tried to keep a more level head. It's hard to do in those situations and I am not the one to pass judgement. I wonder why the robber went back after him and shot him though if he had no intention of killing him in the first place. I think he may have had that intention all along anyway. It's hard to say how the event played out. We'll have to let more details come out. I think it is possible that the robber was afraid for his life and felt like he had to ambush Forrest or his life would be endangered. That's the best conclusion I can come to. But then again who drove the red Monte Carlo? Obviously it looks like more than one accomplice was involved.

                    If that was his mom he wouldnt be so quick to judge.
