    Both fighters have an option of tune-up fight looks like like forrest will take one against TBA. Very intresting matchup I have to slightly favor Martinez becuase his youth and energy and speed and hes a lefty. but i thinks its a pretty even fight with alotta meaning.:good

    sigh...forrest needs to sail off into the sunset gracefully. martinez is too fast for him at this point. damn. bad fight for forrest.

    But is Martinez that much better than Mora? More power.but probably just as awkward.

    much better mechanics, footwork, power, slicker. i see 4 competetive rounds, then him wearing down poor vernon, taking a ud.

    Very possible outcome. U think the tune-up fight is a good idea? for Forrest

    postponing the inevitable. martinez vs forrest will be like jones vs calzaghe. maybe not as severe but it will feel the same. flashes of his former self, false hope, then destruction

    Wow this is really intriguing. Can Forrest get Martinez out of his comfort zone or is he too far gone to be able to take out such a good defensive fighter?

    Fun stuff.

    Does Martinez have the power to get Forrest's respect? Can Martinez push Forrest off the Cliff and finish the old veteran? I lean towards yes.
