Summer of Fights: Vernon “The Viper” Forrest VS Carlos Baldomir

The next fight on the docket is Vernon “The Viper” Forrest VS Carlos Baldomir. This should be a classic matchup of the Boxer (Forrest) versus the Fighter (Baldomir). This fight is hard to figure out where the smart money is for a few different factors.

ATL’s Vernon Forrest is a slick deadly boxer when he was at his peak. And at his peak he was a pure killer that was thrilling to watch. He was good enough to destroy Sugar Shane Mosley not once but twice. He has had serious shoulder injuries and many wonder if he is the same fighter after being stomped on by Ricardo Mayorga twice (I made a killing on the first Mayorga VS Forrest fight…Mayorga was a 10-1 underdog. That was the night Ricardo Mayorga sparked up a smoke in the ring after the fight. I sparked up a smoke also, suited down, 2 button Ozwald Boateng, peaked lapels, Cookie Monster Blue interior, grey Brioni Pocket Square, Prada slip-ons, no socks).

Carlos Baldomir has seemed to get better as his career has gone on. He beat Zab Judah, and dismatled Arturo Gatti. Sure he lost to Pretty Boy Floyd, but then again who hasn’t? He will definitely be hungry when they step in the ring.

This fight is going to come down to how much Vernon Forrest has left. We pretty much know what Baldomir is bringing, Forrest is the question mark. His shoulder is a big question mark also. If he can’t fend off Baldomir, we might see Baldomir “Mayorga” him (although Baldomir isn’t capable fo the kind of mayhem that Mayorga can bring, he is more technically sound however). If his shoulder is 100% (which I kind of doubt) he could ginzu Baldomir. Keep in mind though, Forrest was given a Gift decision against Ike “Bazooka” Quartey.

Either way, I won’t be at this fight. I have a Big Summer Heist planned that night. But it should be well worth watching. The Rest is Up to You…
