Quote from Vernon Forrest about DLH(Anna Kournikova) V Pac

Post by DG. »

While a rematch may be on the horizon, Forrest called out—in a round-about way—De La Hoya, closing out his time center stage with what might’ve been his best attack of the night.

“And one more thing: Since De La Hoya is fighting Pacquiao, let me fight Juan Manual Marquez.

“Because it’s the same thing.”

Like De La Hoya, a junior middleweight, Forrest would be bridging three weight divisions if he faced the new lightweight champion Marquez.

I also heard that Margarito held a mock press conference to announce he was fighting Ivan Calderon!

Forrest vs Marquez wouldn't really be the same thing. I doubt Forrest could make 147 lbs. De La Hoya is smaller than Forrest and Pacquiao is bigger than Marquez.

I am sure that Forrest could make Welter if he really wanted to - he went up to chase Mosley- De La Hoya - Winky etc.

Pacman is a lightweight and so is Marquez so its debatable either way we know JMM can handle Pacman.

Forrest made 147 lbs five years ago. I really don't think he could any more.

And when did Oscar last make 147lbs? 7 years!

For $15M I am sure Forrest would make 140lbs!
