Verno Phillips wants Vernon Forrest

[Andre]

I was mostly reffering to Mayorgas dismantelling of him.
I know styles make or break fights but that showed a chink in his armour that i feel is still there underneath this new and reformed Vernon.
I think he is solid ,always did, but I also think he can come unravelled if someone pulls on that thread again its not something you can train out, that type of thing is in the phyce.
Maybe its just me,but I never did see him (even as an amature) as being diverse enough to change tactics mid fight if required.

Yeah I think Mayorga got in his head that 1st fight! The 2nd could have gone either way IMO. I don't think Forrest will let that happen again. He came out with bombs in that 1st fight that woulda dropped a lota other top welters. But Mayorgas steel chin is now well documented & he caught Forrest with that big right. I can't see Forrest getting drawn into that sorta fight again he's got better skills to rely on!

I hope so;
but I fear it was a mental unravel that could occur again under other circumstances.

If anyone stood in front of any pro and lent forwards poking out a chin, you would hope the other proffesional fighter would be able to rethink his position instantly and go a slight feint,then full uppercut with full leg lift.
That should of and could of been all over ,right then and there.

But you cant do it /if you cant think it.

Easy to say when we're nice & safe outside the ring. That 1st fight was a mini war the whole 3 rounds. Forrest was bouncing bombs off Mayorga from the beginning Mayorgas chin is like granite you gotta break it down gradually. Forrest just got caught with a lucky shot IMO. I don't think there are many who would have shaken it off! But others would have avoided it!
