You have a point, but how much of Forrest's career was based off his two wins over Shane Mosley, the exact kind of fighter tailor-made for his style? I don't quite recall, but who else has Forrest beaten in his career other than Mosley? He got killed by Mayorga twice, received a gift decision from a faded Quartey, and really never did all that much in his career, other than Mosley.
Yeah, he probably would have beaten Mora 5 years ago if he had gotten up for Mora the way he was undoubtedly up for Mosley. But Forrest doesn't get up for fights. And it cost him, both 6 years ago against Mayorga, and now.
