I agree Forrest won, but from pillar to post? Those were two boring fights save for the knockdown in the first. It's what made me dislike Forrest. Punch, clinch, punch, clinch, punch, clinch. It was the right strategy to beat Shane, but Mosley was by no means dominated.

I'm rooting for Shane despite my better senses. Mosley is a few fights away from retirement and it would be better for the guy who's going to be around longer to win. Maybe in this instance I'm just with the underdog.
Yes from pillar to post in the first fight he whooped Shane Mosley, like a red headed step child. He battered him in atleast 3 rounds, especially the 2nd round with the 2 knockdowns, and the 10th round where he doubled Shane Mosley over with body shots.

Vernon Forrest controlled that fight and gave Shane Mosley a throughout beating, with a couple of really dominant rounds to top it off, i agree about the 2nd fight though. That was a pretty close boring fight, which Vernon Forrest just edged out in the later rounds.
