Forrest - Mayorga 2

Id be interested in seeing anyone who scored it for forrests actual score card round by round, thats just bizarre to me to be honest. There wasnt even a question if i can recall of it being that big of a mystery who was going to win after the 12th round. If someone has the time who scored it for forrest and give a round by round score of who won which round id love to see it.

 

Forrest gets excused out of his Mayorga losses more then anyone ive ever seen :-(

- "Oh... oh, for the first fight, he didnt show Mayorga enough respect''
- "Oh.... those were just big choke jobs"
- "Mayorga had him mentally beat in the second fight, he didnt really beat a good forrest''


Bull****.

Forrest came out to blaze Mayorga in the first fight, and got dealt with. He came to try and box mayorga in the second, and got dealt with. An in shape, prime mayorga will always be Forrest's nemises.

And yes, the mayorga that showed up in the Forrest 1, Forrest 2, and Spinks fights would be competetive with just about any welter outside a few ATG's.

 

If that was the case, every boxer with good skills (forrest, spinks) should have had an easy time with Mayorga.... but saying hes got wide shots, and actually dealing with him in the ring are two different things. Mayorga would give Mayweather hell on his aggression, heavy hands, strength size and stamina alone. Mayweather would have to be the favorite, but it would be competetive.

And IMO, theres little, little chance Pac stops Mayorga had they fought.....

Mayorga didnt even get phazed till he fought a 160lb Trinidad.... in a fight Mayorga was dealing with jail, leaving nicaruaga and a **** case. And it took Tito a whole fight of pure flush power punches to wear Mayorga down and he still couldnt put Mayorga to a the canvas until he started going for his body.

If Pac is able to utterly destroy Margarito, Mosley style.... I might change my mind, as of now, no way do i see Pac stopping a primed, in shape, 147lb Mayorga.

 

When was Forrest mentally beat? Sure as well not before their first fight when he came out about as happy and confident as any fighter ive seen, having a minny concert on his way to the ring and going right at Mayorga with an onslought most other opponents would have crumbled under.

If he was beat for the second fight, its only because he knew Mayorga had already tasted his best and he knew it deep down. And so who cares?

The better fighter settled. Period.

- If someone wants to say Forrest was beat for the second fight, its only because he had it beat out of him in the first. In which, Mayorga showed he was more then Forrest could handle, so the point is mute.

- If someone wants to say that Forrest didnt take Mayorga seriously in the first, then he would know that, and would have no reason not to think he couldnt beat Mayorga in a rematch, and wouldnt have been beat in the second. In which, Mayorga still won. So the point is mute.

Any way someone wants to slice it or excuse it, Mayorga beat him twice, against two different gameplans, and there is little left to the imagination on how these two fair against eachother.

imo

 

My bad man not trying to come off as defensive :good I just dont understand the constant excuses and posturing that comes when this fight gets mentioned.... But i guess there will always be excuses for every fight and every fighters loss for the most part, i know ive made them here and there so i suppose its just a natural thing and i should know this by now.

anyways, both fights are good, Forrest really came to bang in the first one and of course Mayorga made the second one entertaining.... underrated little gem that first one.
