Vernon Forrest vs. Sergio Mora I

---

Sergio Mora becomes the first fighter from The Contender series to win a world title when he lifts the WBC Super Welterweight Championship from Vernon Forrest over twelve rounds. Forrest starts well and commands the early rounds until Mora stuns him with a right hand in the sixth. Staring Forrest down following the seventh, Mora out works the tiring champion over the second half of the fight, shouts at him after the bell to end the twelfth and takes home the win by majority decision.
