I think Forrest would box his ears off to be honest, but it would be a good matchup if this one doesn't come off. Don't really see the need for Angulo to step it up any further than he would already be doing in fighting Mayorga next though, that's a total pick em for me even though Mayorga is coming off the KO loss.
I dont see Angulo fighting Forrest as a step up from fighting Mayorga, more like easier to get the WBC belt than fighting a dangerous Mayorga. In other words, it will be easier to beat Forrest and get the belt than risking a non-title fight with Mayorga.
It may not be a big step in terms of class from Mayorga to Forrest at this point, generally speaking.... However from Angulos standpoint there is a massive difference. Stylistically Mayorga is a much better opponent for him than anyone who can move well. I would consider a Forrest matchup MUCH more dangerous for Angulo, even though I think Mayorga would have a good shot to. I don't think Angulo could beat Forrest at all.
