Gyrokai and POB go to the prediction thread I made and you will see. The mods have arranged these type of bets for me before.

No, no... I said ,"how's that?" cuz I repped him so he wouldn't be negative when the bet goes down...

Re: Mora won't beat Forrest...
For people that are totally confident that Forrest will win you have to remember that he's old and could be slowing down.
On the other hand you can't forget Mora's a bit shitty.

Fixed it for you.;)

Re: Mora won't beat Forrest...
Oh nevermind POB. I just saw where someone negative repped him -30. Which I knew it wasn't you because of your strong negative repping muscles.

Re: Mora won't beat Forrest...
Poor guys taking a beating just for saying what MAY happen... Had to rep him to take the edge off... He's getting knocked around right now:puncher:
-
Re: Mora won't beat Forrest...
I'll say it could happen too. And if Mora wins then everyone in this thread should give him respect and nobody better say "Forrest is old now i wont give credit to Mora for beating him despite the fact I predicted Forrest would knock him out."
If Mora wins, give him credit, as much credit as you take away from him.
So No excuses if he wins :)
That said, I'll get on my soap box and say I'm picking Mora to win.

Forrest is old, but he doesn't look it. The guy is fighting better than he has in years. He's finally injury free and I think the move to JMW has helped.

Anyone here knows that I ALWAYS give credit where it's due... I give him gredit for even taking this fight... Forrest is no joke.
If he wins he'll have all the respect in the world and more.
Would you care to have a friendly sig bet, Majesty?

Peter Manfredo, a clearly limited and ordinary fighter beat Mora in their rematch...(I don't care what the judges say)
Vernon has gone on record saying that from here on in he will be on the Attack...
Yeah Mayorga beat Forrest 6 fights ago but Mora is no Mayorga and with 5 KOs to his credit Forrest won't have to worry about making a mistake cuz he sure won't be afraid of even a lucky haymaker... That'll probably just piss him off.
Vernon by late KO or clean UD
Uh...??

Re: Mora won't beat Forrest...
Poor Pride Of Boston has to be very upset that Sergio is the REAL CONTENDER and now Sergio has done what Pedork was unable to do.
Do you think Sergio should leave his trainer and get Freddy Roach? ;D

OK F!!! it,Im saying it one time....:flamed:....Good call on Mora from about 3 or 4 people ,Diane,Danny,Bilbo, & Majesty ??...but I ate my size 11 with my pick :ziplip:...I was off .Mora took that win and Grey beard Forrest put a bow on it......Mora-less has a well earned big fight by fight future :-X

Re: Mora won't beat Forrest...
Woah! You guys are weird?! Forrest looked ok v 2 pensioners, but Mora fought bigger guys and was motivated. I picked Forrest via points but check the other threads, I knew for sure it wouldn't be a beating for Mora!Mora beat Forrest ass imo.
And I don't see Mora being champ for long. He needs big fights but he'll probably lose in the smaller fights(he comes across as the kind of guy that needs huge motivation to perform)

Oh come on... And this isn't just directed at you, it's at everyone who picked Mora to win. How could anyone have possibly known that Forrest would look like absolute garbage and have aged 10 years since his last fight, beforehand??? Based on the form Forrest showed against Baldomir and Picchirilo, Forrest would have beaten Mora handily. To pretend otherwise is completely pretentious.

Well.and this is aimed at you, I've written quiet a few times that Vernon has not looked as good as he used to BEFORE this fight took place. Just because he looked decent at best v dinosaurs didn't mean he was going to beat Mora. I wasn't going to blindly follow everyone else proclaiming Vernon was the man etc etc just because of wins over Baldo and Piccirillo,2 punching bags.
And just because Mora looked bad in his last 2 fights didn't mean he was not going to win. I've been reading ALOT about Sergio's sparring with Margarito,Angulo,Kirkland etc and how he holds his own against them all so I thought he had a decent chance of winning.
Doug Fischer is the best writer and maybe the most knowledgeable boxing fan in the world. He called Mora winning,he stated the reasons why and he was right.

I don't care what happens now. What I cared about was that he won a belt.
This might be no bigger than Floyd beating Gatti or Baldomir for thier belts.
The critics said that Sergio would never win a belt. They were wrong.
They also said Sergio would never get another title shot and how soon we all forget eh? Not only did he get another title shot, he won that son of a biatch fair and square. I said it once and I will say it again, Sergio is pretty good but he lacks experience. He might not get much further but who knows.? He proved a lot of people wrong including me. I am glad I was wrong, I really am. I thought he had the goods but once he became stagnant, I began to loose hope.

Re: Mora won't beat Forrest...
This reminds me of Gomez beating Gatti. We didn't realize how completely shot Gatti was and we didn't give Gomez enough credit. Contender guys take a lot of crap around here. Same thing with Vera and Andy Lee. Feliciano sparked out the much hyped Delvin Rodriguez. Manfredo went the distance with Lacy in a fairly close fight (Giampa had the fight even in rounds, with Lacy only ahead because of the knockdown).
Just because the show made these guys more famous than other equally good or better up and comers does not make them crap or incapable of become excellent fighters. I'm not sure any of them will be ATGs, but they are better than a lot of people think.

Agreed.Ive been guilty of taking swipes at the concept & execution of the whole Contender show,as well as the over hyping up of some guys.Ive seen people act as if These fighters first entry into the sport was with the show when in fact all of them were in the professional ring many times prior.The show was an opportunity ,a shot in the arm to revitalize respected careers & reset.Gomez ,Mora,Bundrage, etc all beat there big fight former champions and will undoubtedly be in additional big stage bouts.Manfredo,Forbes were already established fighters and used show as a springboard also.I will say with some certainty though that None of them will be ultimately remembered as all time greats,but you sure can not begrudge them for trying there arse's off & going as far as possible.I expected Forrest to crush Mora based on the big picture of careers and skillset...I was wrong.Mora did what he had to do and grabbed his moment and title..Im not sold on him as the heir apparent in the big time,way to much posturing for me.
