    It was a great performance. The punch he hit Mosley with in the 2nd round to start the wheels in motion for him to eventually floor him was a beauty!

    It was the 10 round, the body work by Forrest starts at 5:30

    Mosley took a brutal beating, this guy can take damage man. Really physically strong.

    I remember watching this fight when it actually happened. I always thought it was the head butt that helped the knock down. After watching it again, he was just caught by some clean shots. Mosley is and always will be a warrior, but he's one deminsional. He don't adjust well either. Winky fight and Forrest fight shows that. Mayweather will take advantage of that for sure.

    That Vernon Forrest wouldv'e given Maywweather lots of problems. But, of course, Mayweather would have avoided him.

    I remember thinking at the time he was on the verge of being stopped in that 10th round...I remember the break but I didnt think it was that long..Shane was reeling big time.

    WOW IT WAS A LOW BLOW!!

    Holy ****, did you see the reply at the end of the round? It was a clear low blow, Foreman and Lamply acknolwedge it.

    I always gave Forrest credit for hurting shane to the body and making him scream like a girl. all this time and it was a low blow...Wow

    that was some serious punishment. a lesser fighter would have never made it through that round on his feet. mosley looked crippled after those body punches. i've never heard a professional fighter scream like that when getting hit to the body.

    it was low, but it's not like it was that low. not at the hip or in the nuts or anything. it was a legitimate punch to shane's body, even though it was below the belt. still very impressive.
