Vernon Forrest's Future

It's just you.

 

Forrest can become an elite member of the Jr. Middleweight division late in his career if he can land a big fight. Already a title holder, Forrest can make a mark in this division with a big win, but needs a big name big money fight to do so.

 

He should fight Spinks or DLH and then move up to MW division, where the real matchups are.

 

who is his mandatory????

 

What real matchups? Pavlik/Taylor will move up. Miranda has left.

 

Unless he plans on fighting Spinks or unifying the Titles - there's not really any big fights out there for him.

He's too big and too old to more back down in weight. So either Unify or move up and challenge - Sturm or Abraham for a title.

 

Pavlik will not leave this soon. Then there is Winky, Abraham, Sturm, and upcomings Lee and Duddy. Definetelly better than Jr. MW.

 

Pavlik, with a second win over Taylor, should move up to Super Middle, to make a mega fight with Calzaghe, if Joe C beats B-Hop. I agree with Randeris.

 

okay, oscar is the mandatory.......but he wont fight forrest.

that means sergio gabriel martinez is next mandatory.

and martinez can beat forrest imo. he THE darkhorse at 154.

 

Winky won't fight Forrest - because they are friends (straight from Wink's mouth) - but I agree with the rest of the options.

 

Its just you. Quartey beat him just a couple of fights back.

 

But got shafted by the judges of course..

 

its just you

 

Yes, Forrest has looked good of late. I think part of that has to do with the fact that he's recovered from his shoulder injuries.

All you people talking about him fighting JT or Pavlik need to stop. I don't see it happening. Those guys are a bit too big for Forrest and i think Forrest knows this.

The best fight for Forrest and for Mayorga is to do a triology. There is money in that fight. And i KNOW that's why Mayorga fights and i'm sure Forrest would love to avenage those two losses.
