Our Prediction: Mora v. Forrest

We understand that Oscar de la Hoya has contacted Sergio Mora to fight him should he beat Vernon Forrest.

We don't expect that to happen. We're taking Forrest to avenge his loss to Mora, who lacks knockout power (5 KOs).

Forrest did not appear to have trained last time, and may well cut off the ring and go for the knockout this time around against the light hitting Mora. Mora is one of our favorite fighters, but he simply does not have the power to keep a fit Forrest off of him. Forrest has already beaten boxer punchers such as Shane Mosley and should be able to work off a jab to nullify Mora's speed before working his body to take away his legs.

We like Forrest in a spirited contest.
