That would be good match. I can see Martinez winning but he better not have those hands low with Forrest because he will eat jabs like crazy.
I think it would be a good fight as well. I would give it to Martinez.

I don't think he would drop his hands with Vernon. He started the fight against Bunema with his hands up, it wasn't until about the 3rd round, when he felt extremely comfortable, and confident, that Bunema wouldn't be able to really catch him, is when the hands came down.

But I have a feeling that Vernon won't take the fight, he hates to fight southpaws, and he's looking for big money fights, and even though Martinez's stock went up with that performance, I don't think it will generate the kind of money that Vernon wants.
