i just rewatched forrest-mosley 1 and i realized mosley did not seem like himself he just didn't look like his head was in there, but even then he could have still beat forrest if he never kept holding like a bitch, everytime mosley started going forrest would clinch.
come on man... he had 2 chances... Vernon just owns Mosley. Mosley should just feel good he didnt get stopped when vernon hurt him bad...

Mosley also would have beat him if he never got rocked, had longer arms, more speed and more power.
the if game is never ending.

I think Forrest simply had Mosley's number

Forrest would beat Mosley 9 out of 10 times.

There's no excuse in the rematch though. Just a terrible style match up for Mosley.
Mosely would have beaten forrest if forrest had lost. forrest won so mosely lost, case closed.

Yeah, and Mosley was the one with the concussion.
What are you trying to prove here?

Man, I still remember that knockdown of Mosley.
Forrest damn near took Shane's head off with that killer uppercut. Shit was brutal.

Oh come on. Would have, could have, should have BUT DIDN'T. He had three chances including the fight they had in the amateurs and he lost all three.
He simply cannot beat Forrest.

no argument there. Mosley had never been that hurt before or since. The headbutt definitely shook him up.

even though you have got to give forrest great credit, mosley did seem a bit lethargic in there first fight. I won a very good amount of money on forrest in their first fight

i always appreciated forrest for his excellent technical skills, he had a style that was just well suited for handling shane. whats so funny about the whole thing as well, is that mayorga eventually ended up becoming vernon's true dad.

headbutt that destroyed mosley......well loads were saying that forrest won only becuase he head butted mosley and stunned him and all of that shiz
maybe he got a dreadlock and cut him could of been the reason?

True, I always wondered would if that head butt never happen, what would have happen. Mosley was clearly bothered by that head butt, and Forrest saw that and attacked. Hell, Forrest couldn't even finish Mosley off when he should have.
