Boxing on HBO tonight - Forrest Vs. Mayorga
#12
The fight was close, I ain't sayin Mayorga dominated him thoroughly.

I had it 115-113, so one round goes the way of forrest and it's a draw.

But you don't come in as the former champ who was embarassed last time, looking to win the championship, and the ring belt in recognition of being the true champ of the division, like forrest came in.

You don't win the championship by running backwards.

On the scoring basis of effective agressiveness, mayorga wins, ring generalship, mayorga wins, clean punching, it's close the jabs were close with forrest having an edge. Power shots it was no contest, Mayorga had forrest hurt several times, and all those "glancing blows" they may not have all landed flush but if they did Forrest woulda been outta there in quick fashion.

Mayorga is a pure brawler in the cloth of a dempsy, duran, marciano, and tyson. The difference is that he also has great stamina and a granite chin, no way forrest won that fight going backwards hald the night. The only reason I gave forrest the bulk of the middle and later rounds was because Mayorga was bored chasing him and forrest effectively handled him by setting up his shots with the jab and attacking the body.

And all 3 judges gave forrest the last round, so it wasnt even close at that point since he won that round, I gave it to him as well.
