Thread: Forrest Vs. Baldomir RBR

You guys hopefully know both of these guys, Baldomir is a straight forward no-nonsense type of scrapper, Forrest is more of the pugilist as Lennox would say. I think this fight will actually be good, even tho it doesnt have action written all over it. These guys have 2 different styles and only one is going to be able to make the other play his game. I think the action is gonna depend on Forrest, he can pull a Floyd and just jab move potshot all night if he has his legs...or he can choose to get in there and mix it up,like he did in the Mayorga fights. If he does mix it up more often than not, Baldomir will come out on top. Right now I'm watching the replay of the Winky-Hopkins fight, I wanna see if this holding is as bad as some say....

CC for the RbR

Steward is right on as usual, he said Winky doesnt have the legs he used to and I agree 100% hes having trouble getting set and Bernard is controlling the fight with his legs and movement. Real close, hard to score.

I didnt even notice this fight was at 154...for a title no less. Forrest is coming off some surguries shoulder and elbow, lets ee if he has recovered.

The holding wasnt as bad as the lead headbutt right cross combo...ouch. Gotta give it to Hopkins he took Wright out of his game, and roughed him up. I scored it Hopkins winning by 2 rounds, but he could have penalized twice. The ref warned him, then warned again after saying he would take a point, for the holding. Scores were way off...

So where we at now Cheif? Still the Hopkins vs. Wright?

This is for thw WBC belt...vacated by Mayweather...wow. the fight is about to satrt soon, pre-hype stuff.

Cool, Thxz!

Baldy is 5'7 Forrest 6'0 , Im kind of pulling for Baldomir, but I think Forrest is gonna coast if he holds up with the injuries.Definately a crossroads fight for both, Ref is Micheal Ortega. Baldy is 43-10-6 13 kos
Forrest is 38-2 28kos.

I’ rooting for Baldmoir because of his Cinderella story, but I cant see Baldmoir winning actually.

Just by looks right now, does either men look impressive?

Round 1 of 12 lead left hooks by baldy , posturing. jab ffrom forrest. Lead right by baldy then a clinch with inside fightin...Forrset is standing his ground atm, baldy lunging with the hook leads...Forrest left hook counters, dips and 2 hooks to baldy...combo by Vern, double jab left hook..Baldy is pressing a bit, bit low with a shot...another lead right by baldy,and jab meets from Forrest. Looks pretty even 10-10 Forrest is looking to mix it up, could be great fight.

Thanks for the coverage bro, I'm sure someone will sticky it sooner rather than later. v And ome on Forrest!

Round 2 of 12
Forrest pushes Baldys head down when he comes in...trade jabs,Forrest does leave his left a little low Baldomir has the right lead IMO...Exchangr pretty even, both mixing shots. Baldomir is loading up on the lead right. Missed Lunging hook by Baldy, jab right cros from Forrest I will refer to as v. Big right hook by Baldy on v against ropes. winging hooks i think Baldomir got the better shots off 10-9 Baldomir 20-19Baldy

i got forrest winning the first 2 rounds

20-18 forrest
