    THis bum did nothing but sit on the wbc belt for a few, and went 1-1 with sergio mora and robbed quartey. I wish he would just retire man, he is a boring ass fighters these days:tired

    The rematch with Mora wasn't boring at all.

    Agreed, the rematch was a good fight.

    I like Vernon, but injuries have taken a toll on him.. and he beat Mayorga in the rematch in my eyes, so the Quartey fight was just karma coming back at him.

    He lost the Mayorga rematch, Forrest didn't look like he wanted to be there that night.

    He has one or two paydays left in him I think he is 39 years old. Those injuries 5 years ago took a lot of time out of his prime.

    forest is a quality fighter but he needs to stay busy. he's the king of a very weak division (in general) and needs to get some wins and call it a day
