Vernon Forrest will defend his World Boxing Council (WBC) super welterweight title against former Contender champion Sergio Mora
In a spectacular world championship doubleheader, Vernon Forrest will defend his World Boxing Council (WBC) super welterweight title against former Contender champion Sergio Mora, while Carlos Quintana looks to retain his newly acquired World Boxing Organization (WBO) welterweight belt in a rematch against the boxer he dethroned, the previously unbeaten Paul Williams, Saturday, June 7, at 9 p.m. ET/PT on SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING (delayed on the west coast).
The event will be promoted by Gary Shaw Productions, LLC, and Fight Nite, LLC, in association with Tournament of Contenders, LLC, DiBella Entertainment and Goossen Tutor Promotions in association with Northeast Promotions. It will emanate from Mohegan Sun in Uncasville, Conn.
Vernon and Team Forrest
In his last start, Forrest (40-2, 29 KOs), of Atlanta, successfully defended his WBC belt with an 11th-round TKO over Michele Piccirillo Dec. 1, 2007, on SHOWTIME. A former three-time welterweight champion, Forrest won the vacant crown with a 12-round unanimous decision over Carlos Baldomir on July 28, 2007.
Mora (20-0-1, five KOs), of Los Angeles, won The Contender television series on Oct. 15, 2005, with an entertaining and hard-fought split decision over Peter Manfredo, Jr. The fight with Forrest is exactly what Mora has been aiming for and should prove to be his toughest challenge to date.
The Quintana-Williams bout is a rematch of a WBO welterweight title fight that Quintana won in a shocking upset on Feb. 9, 2008. Williams, who came into the fight confident and an 8-1 favorite, lost a 12-round unanimous decision by the scores 116-112 twice and 115-113.
Vernon Forrest and Kimbo Slice
Quintana, of Puerto Rico, is 25-1 with 19 knockouts. The only blemish on his record came in a hard-fought loss to Miguel Cotto for the WBA welterweight title Dec. 2, 2006 on SHOWTIME.
Williams (33-1, 24 KOs), of Augusta, Ga., captured the WBO belt with a close decision over Antonio Margarito, who had made seven successful defenses, on July 14, 2007.
