Man Vernon had power in both hands. Rest in paradise!!!
❤🎉🎉
Yeah he did
Until he messed up his rotator cup
Steve Smogar is definitely one of the greatest refs in boxing history; he knows how to let fighters work. I always appreciate a good boxing referee.
Yes he was my favorite!!
Always a fair official. No compaints. Wish we.had more like him today along with mills lane and larry hazard.
People need to understand that at this point in time, Shane Mosley was essentially on top of the boxing world. He had already beat prime Oscar De La Hoya and was the top dog in his division. For him to give a chance to a guy like Vernon Forrest who was obviously a very good to great prime, hungry fighter with a style that was all bad for Mosley, says a lot about the guts Mosley had and how guys back then (As opposed to most top fighters today) were not ducking each other, talking about “It don’t make business sense” “it ain’t about the belts” “you on the other side of the street” etc. blah blah. Mosley didn’t duck Forrest when he could’ve had every excuse to. It was just Forrest’s night.
FLOYD was the best, and they both knew that
Mosley knew exactly who Vernon was, because they fought in the Olympics...
I don't think Shane gave anything to Forrest he hadn't earned. Forrest was the IBF champion. Shane wanted to unify and he wanted revenge for Forrest keeping him out of the Olympics. This was no charity
I couldn’t agree with you more.!!!!!!!
Twice??? V was just too good for Sugar..
Idk why Vernon Forrest isn’t more popular. I know his life was cut short but what he did to Mosley was an amazing display of skill. He would’ve given anyone in their prime a problem.
agreed
except of course Mayorga LOL
More popular in what way?
He lost 2X to Mayorga that set him back. Then he lost a decision to Sergio Mora 5 years later.
couldn't get past his first defense. Competitive sport, you have to be able to do well against all kinds of styles, not everyone can.
@atMayorga did have a problem dealing with Forrest in the second fight, he still won by points but it was a hard-fought, competitive fight. Forrest having a bad style-match up against Mayorga is not a huge knock against him. Iran Barkley twice knocked out Tommy Hearns but he was still a beast and hugely popular, Forrest's resume is not on the level of Hearns but he was still very formidable.
Vernon had Shane's number, twice. Some fighters do with certain opponents. Shame what happened to him. R.I.P. Vernon Forrest.
Just like miyorga had his and Shane had miyorgas yell
Vernon even beat his ass in the amateurs...Shane just could never beat him.
@@cboakye6980 Styles make fights. Vernon handled Shane. Mayorga beat Vernon. Shane beat Mayorga.
@@jamesbondjr.85
That's true.its funny how it's like that.
who didn't have Shanes number. he could never box, LOL
RIP Vernon- shook up the world with that one
Shane was never the same after this fight
@@p5dxw87 facts
@@viewfromvenice2912 he stop using them roids and became regular
"Styles make fights " Vernon beat Shane twice, Shane beat Mayorga twice , Mayorga beat Vernon twice… a Perfect example
And Oscar De La Hoya DESTROYED Ricardo Mayorga.
Vernon fought a much better version of Mayorga than Shane or ODLH did. His prime was very short, mostly due to his bad habits, but for a brief time he was about as dangerous a welterweight as you'd ever want to meet.
@@bernie4366 Golden Boy and sugar will still destroy the mayorga that knocked forrest out
@@ruffgodz9543 Probably, but they're ATG's man. You're not talking about two random dudes here. I don't think they 'destroy' him though. He's dangerous as fuck. They'll take their time.
@@bernie4366 Oscar and shane are more dangerous than mayorga, it's just that style makefights that's all.
The lady screaming "COME ON VERNON FUCK HIM UP!" every few seconds is all the commentary we need
Right when I read this she said it lol
Screaming like a monkey destroyed my ears...
Vernon "The Viper" Forrest was an extraordinary welterweight! He shook up boxing with this win because people didn't know how accomplished he was as an amateur, but they all knew Sugar Shane Mosley's popularity! This fight taught me to look deep into fighters' amateur careers over popularity.
Facts he had beat Shane in the ammys also so he had great confidence
Or just look at their actual boxing
@@themondoshow They'll look way better than they really are if they're fighting tomato cans
Same here especially in the 2nd fight
I remember watching this fight live. At the time, I considered Shane unbeatable.
No commentary is a beautiful thing.
R.I.P. my fellow boxer and champion Vernon Forrest.
🥊🥊🙏🏾🙏🏾✝️✝️💖💖
Trained with him in Augusta.
people don’t know what it takes to do this. a 20 second street fight is a joke to this. this is a brutal sport
The light circus of rome is the boxing
Man i just saw this fight on my home page and decided to watch it, never really heard of vernon forest aside from seeing his name when i looked up shanes boxing record awhile back. But man what a amazing fighter!!! And it's sad to learn about the tragedy that happened to him, rest in paradise brother we truly lost a great 🙏😇
Go dude
@@jeffreycurtis9075 excuse me?
Shane's had the same problem his whole career which is why he lost this fight. Mosley is a natural boxer with incredible speed but has the heart and chin of a brawler. Here instead of boxing and protecting himself hed rather brawl it out with Forrester who has much more power than Shane but doesn't have Shane's speed. Everyone knows if you hit Shane he's gonna hit you back. Forrester simply took what Shane gave him
Good analysis
Shane had an awful jab and when you're boxing against a longer fighter with a better one, then most likely you're going to lose.
Forrest did not have more power than Shane. He was a more technical boxer so he won.
..And coming off worse from the head clash which effectively set up the Knockdown 🤷🏾♂️ after that point, Shane then thought a more careless and desperate fight
Vernon was 3-0 vs Shane. Beat him once in the amateurs too…and he won me $400 on this night. RIP Champ
NOBODY EXPECTED SUGAR TO LOSE🥊🥊
Also Rest In Peace to Vernon Forrest who was killed by a coward
What happen to him?
@@woodyfaith1285 he was shot unfortunately by a coward with a weapon and didn’t survive.
RIP referee Steve Smoger (one of the best referees ever!) and Vernon Forest. 💔
That Whew Punch Shane talked about Vernon never landing, landed...🛬
It was nice watching this with no commentary whats so ever. I could hear all of the blows and they were throwing leather
RIP to Vernon Forest
This version of Vernon would have given Floyd hell.
No commentating! I love this!
No annoying commentary from ring side announcers. Great Video. 👊🏿👊🏿
R.I.P Vernon forrest.
Shane Mosley never been stopped, took some vicious shots . . doesn't get enough credit for his toughness
Rip Vernon
ROIDS
Steroids
@@WZ912 Sorry that was the second fight with Oscar at 154. he wanted to get bigger but he was stiff, I knew something was off. Before that, pure skill. His pops wanted all that money. he didnt develop a left hook til hopkins trainer came along later in his career, margarita knockout, will show you that new skill set.
🙏 Rip Vernon Forrest
Mosely got whipped in this fight Vernon Forrest just had Moselys number.
and mayorga had forrest s number as well
Feel like the headbutt changed the fight
Forrest was the only guy to ever put a good whoppin to Mosely!! Just a good beating!!! Peace brother
Why didn't Forrest at least get warned for excessive holding? Every time Moseley got close he was like an octopus and Moseley was not allowed to work inside.
He beat Shane 2 times in amateur and 2 times as a pro, has his number.
Lee Lauder.. Don't know if you seen it or not but Floyd definitely put a good beating on Mosley his self bro..
He hit Shane with such a devastating body shot Shane screamed out so loud I thought he had been shot lol
@@katanasmith Shane was holding just as much
What a fight, the ref was good two, giving two Champs the best at it
lo que se ha sido un veso grandote yo
That body shot made Shane yell in the 10th around 1:30
Had to play it back to catch it, wow!
It was a low blow.
My opinion best fighters at welterweight around that time.
1. Trinidad
2. Oscar
3. Vernon
4. Shane
5. Mayorga
ike bazooka quartey really beat oscar and forrest
Everyone talking about vernon, vernon. Yet know one is saying how the hell did mosley servive this, an still finish strong.! So Mayorga beats Vernon 2x an Shane beats Mayorga 2x. Shane was a Great fighter, RIP Vernon.
Defense was never Shanes thing and he was always ot of positon.He had that bad amateur habit.Of putting his head back.Thats perfect for someone with long reach.
Sounds like Chris Byrds wife in the background yelling 😆
I think it was her though ? 🤔
@@elizandropedraza1286 it was! I just read about it… she was at this fight yelling for Forrest to win, she was mad at Byrd after an argument and went out for the night and went to this fight!
Great to see this fight in 1080 HD
I like it with no commentary. You get tired of listening to Larry Merchant.
“Am I cut “ , “you’re cut” , “dayum” 🤣
R.I.P. Vernon. All time great!!!!!
body shot at 40:45 was extremely vicious.
Goddamn that was brutal. Shane called on the power of god and anime to stay upright. What a fighter.
10th round at 1:31 & around 1:28 you can hear Shane damn near scream 😱
No commentary is awesome! Thanks for the video
Loop loop
.9lip
They’re so quick It’s like the video is sped up
Vern's height and reach really paid dividends.
RIP Vernon
@Randall Meloncon he has been dead for 12 years
Loving the live audio without commentary. Would love to watch them all like this.
Thankful for all the great fights that did happen but so many didn’t unfortunately like Mosley vs Ike Quartey,Vernon Forrest vs Winky Wright,Trinidad vs Mosley,Trinidad vs Ike Quartey,De la Hoya vs Winky Wright and so on and so forth in so many era’s sometimes they happen when they don’t matter nearly as much due to fighter’s being past their best day’s but most often it happens due to promoters and the fighter’s who hide behind the promoters 😂 Thank God Mosley was never one of those 🙏💪😎 True warrior
I would've liked to scene Vargas vs Quartey. I think it would've been a chess match
How did you find these fights without commentary! Brilliant stuff thanks for posting this!
P.S. I love how there's no commentary.
This fight should’ve been over in the 2nd round
Facts same thing I said he was done
Facts. Definitely a stoppage
I've always wondered if Mosley would have been better off long term if he just would have been counted out in the 2nd round... instead of taking the long, drawn out beating he took over 12 rounds.
Two 30 plus win undefeated fighters. Rare indeed.
Props to Moseley for going the distance he want doing to good after the first knockdown. Both these dudes were beasts. RIP Vernon Forrest
FIGHT WAS GOING GOOD THEN ALL THE HUGGING STARTED.
Facts
If you're getting hurt or getting tired, you need to clinch in order to regain your energy lmao
I remember watching this fight live and seeing Forrest just dominate Sugar Shane broke my heart
I remember hearing about the fight the next day at school and being surprised shane lost.. he was p4p1 at the time
Shane Mosley looking like Adonis Creed in his stars and bars shorts
Fascinating to watch without the commentary.
Shane got rocked in between 9:18 and 9:30
Good evening as a fan former ref and a known stats person l respect both champs.Shane never got the credit he earned after fighting the best of his era .The only questionable decision he ever got was his second fight with Oscar l think he lost RIP Vernon
He was on peds his whole career admitted and testified so no.
*RIP VERNON AUG STAND UP*
Shane’s pops a sorry corner man my goodness he wasn’t giving him any good advice
This fick is the perfect example of a parent not giving a fuck. Shane was nearly out cold and all his dad could say is "move around the ring".
Listen in the 5th round someone in the crowd is yelling “move to your right Shane” his own corner never said that once. Corner had nothing strategy wise for Shane after the 2nd round.
I was watching Shane vs Winky wright today Vernon Forrest they both had his number in his prime but you know so what he didn't duck anybody and literally was always looking for the toughest competition to compete against and in his prime he was 38-0 35 by knockout at 135 .. you really got to put Shane in the conversation for greatest lightweight sure when he moved up to welterweight he won some lost some but the man fought everyone... I don't know why but I'm thinking about Mayweather saying he look like Shrek in his green suit at the prese conference anybody else remember that lmfao
Sugar Shane Mosley vs Forest is a classic
Ricardo Mayorga le ganó 2 veces a Vernon. En la primera pelea lo noqueo y en la revancha Mayorga le ganó nuevamente, esa vez por decisión.
Hard to believe this is shane mosley
Vernon was clever and tactical at the right time from the 4th round on until about the 9th. He was tired and hanging on. It must have taken alot out of him in rounds 2 and 3. He clinched in the beginning of the mid rounds and then he would steal those rounds in the last 45 seconds or so. Kudos to Vernon Forest for being a crafty warrior. RIP
The quality!
The head butt affected shane
Yeah for that round
I am gonna say it, Vernon beats Floyd at any point if they fought. But Floyd would NEVER sign that contract 🤔
Ok, I remember being in Vegas that weekend for a wedding. Championship Sunday was the next day as Drew Bledsoe came in for a banged up Tom Brady n led the Pats to SB win #1. The tuck rule game was 2 weeks prior to this, so it marked the beginning of the curse on the Raiders, setting off 2 decades of forgettable football by the Silver & Black.
Since the wedding & reception was Saturday, I missed this fight. As i walked into the sportsbook, I was shocked when i saw Vernon doing the post fight interview at ringside, saying how his jab nullified the speed of Shane. Now I am watching this for the first time and Vernon took it to Sugar who, to me at the time, seemed unbeatable as a pro. And VF did it twice....I really miss boxing, and the Raiders being relevant......Vernon Forrest...champ.....RIP, warrior!!!!
The ref earned his pay
The Head-butt helped Forrest.
Beat him the second time too
Shane looks cool even when he loses
Dont understand, guy is shaken up an the corner is jabbering at him, not helping him clear his head
Veron rest in heaven 🙏 u was the truth 💯
I hope so
Back when fighters used to get down to business
That was the most hurt and Trouble Ive Ever seen Shane Mosley in a fight I thought Shane Mosley was gonna get knocked out by Vernon Forrest in that Second RD but Kudos to Mosley he hung in there tough Surviving against the Talented Dangerous Vernon Forrest
I know most guys wouldn't have made it out that round
The electricity in that room
Interesting that Forrest beat Mosley 2X but lost to Mayorga a lessor fighter 2X.
He also split decisions with Sergio Mora.
Proof that styles and body types matter.
Not really that interesting. Mayorga was a good boxer and so was Mora. That fact that he was stopped by Mayorga in their first match is indeed interesting. Yet out of 41 matches, these are his only losses. I'm not sure what proof relative to body types you're talking about, unless you know some study that I'm not aware of
What? Mayorga was a bull man,a real wild and ferocious Warrior in his prime
Beware
This was a great fight but I think I should have been stopped in the second round.Shane took alot of punishment in this fight
How on earth did Sugar Shane survive that second round And finished the fight!
@@harryheath9928 alot of heart,he was undefeated at the time so he had a strong will just like holyfield vs bow 1 and people that didn't like evander before that fight I'm sure he won people over even in defeat.
when media hyped fighter meets a real deal fighter...
I had 117-109 VERNON
R.I.P VERNON FORREST
slither his way ahahahahahaha i'm dying here omg
Mosley fought everybody. Well back in these days, everyone fought everyone for the most part. But whenever Mosley had issues beating someone, he kept losing to them. This fight probably should have been over in the 2nd round. Mosley took a lot of punishment
Facts his speaks a bit punchy.
He took punches that few
Could take.tough as nails.
Mosley really fought everyone.
Beat margarita when everyone
Was ducking him.
He might have the best resume
In the era.
@@LuisHernandez-oj5bm well everybody wanted Margarito after he gave Cotto the beat down because it gave him big money superstar status. Mosley- Margarito was the biggest money fight that could be made at Welterweight. Pacquiao had gone down to 140 for Hatton and said he planned to stay there. As far as money went Mosley and Margarito really had nowhere else to look for money except Cotto and themselves. That fight had to happen.
@@LuisHernandez-oj5bm Oscar Dela Hoya had a top notched resume as well.
do u think mosely ducked mayweather (or vice versa)?? i dont remember those times good
@@austinlittke5580 I honestly dont think he gave Mayweather much thought. Because nobody in those days thought that mayweather could Knockout Mosley. I think Mosley was focused on other fighters his size or bigger than him. Would have been an interesting fight way back, but I guess it is what it is. Mosely still had a good career. He didnt duck anyone, and fought folks 10 times more dangerous than Mayweather. When he fought them. He fought them in their primes. Mosely did.
THANKS
Man did Vernon give Shane the business this night. I'm not sure this was anything other than a UD for Forrest.
Shane wasn’t the same after the cut
Wow NO commentary 2 manipulate U on who is winning and who isn’t!?!?!?
This is GR8!!!!!!!!
What a Fight!!!!!
Fantastic match up. Shane landed and Vernon was not remotely discouraged. Shanes neuro damage has some of Vernon's signature on it.
Shane wasn't ready for the bigger, stronger, faster, more talented and more determined fighter. He was in serious danger from the beginning.
Fantastic work by the ref!
This many years later I feel like Shane still great but 160 vs 147 😮
Vernon’s jab was vicious this fight he was tripling and quadrupling that jawn.
By the looks of it Forrest didn't take very good care of his belt lol 😆
For sure 😅😅😅
Vernon vs Oscar who yaw think would take that one it's obvious Oscar stayed away from a fight with Forrest
Two great wrestlers.
(40:47) I don’t think I’ve ever heard a fighter cry out in pain like Mosley did after taking that ferocious body shot from Forest! The grimace on his face tells you all you need to know! But Mosley took it like the champ he is.
Not many fighters would have survived that 2nd round to go 12. Shane had insane punch resistance and heart.
Indeed. He was extremely cleaver also. His head never really reset properly after the knockdown in the second. Yet he was able to think clearly enough to keep the distance close, so that he wasn't on the end of Vernon's punishing power. That lunging towards Vernon was a cleaver gimmick to allow Vernon to tie him up, giving him chance to survive this fight. Vernon had him where he wanted, but couldn't knock his feet out from under him and was wary of getting in trouble himself
Dont forget he use steroids
Round 10 really became a nightmare for Mosly
Vernon was a bad matchup for Shane
Back then, all boxers who contracted some match fights to HBO, all of them lost next fight of they contracted.
shane was such a jittery fighter lol, his style annoyed me but he had sum pop and pretty quick
