'The Viper' Vernon Forrest (RIP) sensationally relieved Sugar Shane Mosley of his WBC welterweight title on this day in 2002. Mosley was cut and floored heavily twice in a frantic second round, but showed incredible toughness to last the distance with the vicious Forrest at Madison Square Garden. The new champion granted Mosley an immediate rematch six months later and again was a winner on the judges' cards. #boxing #BoxingNews #VernonForrest #MosleyForrest (at The Garden)
