Comments Thread For: Mayweather Tabs Guerrero For Showtime PPV on May 4

yeah backfired terribly, he only set a PPV record in his fight against oscar and has been doing near 1 million each fight since.

Who the hell said anything about PPV and money?????? Floyd many times has complained about why he is not a beloved ATG and cannot understand why he does not recieve tons of adoration. All he has to do is look at how and why he changed years ago. You don't insult guys like Sugar Ray Leonard, Larry Holmes, Oscar De La Hoya and flip the finger to your fans and expect adoration.

Now, lets start the "he is ducking Alexander" train.

Wont see me doing that. Floyd needs to be honest with his intentions and not use Alexander's name as a game-playing tool.

Floyd Mayweather Jr. has finalized a deal to fight Robert Guerrero on May 4 at the Las Vegas MGM Grand, sources with knowledge of the negotiations informed CSNBayArea.com/BoxingScene.com Tuesday morning.

In a bit of an upset, Showtime will broadcast the pay-per-view event, edging archrival HBO for the rights.

Guerrero (31-1-1, 18 KOs), currently the WBC interim welterweight titleholder, will take on the full-fledged WBC champion Mayweather (43-0, 26 KOs) for the belt. [Click Here To Read More]

FINALLY!!!...HBO gets a bullet in their heart for ALL the years for taking shots at the dude....SHOWTIME is better than HBO anyway...only thing HBO has going for them is Roy

Damn near half the people on here picked Berto to whoop Guerrero and were proven wrong but they still refuse to give Guerrero the respect he deserves. The man is a good fighter.

That's the best part about this. Showtime have their own little series.

People who think this is gonna be a mismatch are in for a big surprise IMO.

Yep. I recall him fighting Salido a few years back...Guerrero is a much better fighter nowadays. He'll be a handful for Floyd.

Great to see Money back in the saddle.

Hopefully after this Mayweather will meet some worthy fighters.

Im happy for Guerrero getting such a huge fight. He didnt just sit on his @ss and beg for a fight, he went out and did his best to earn it. Cases can be made against his opposition, but regardless, he proved he could fight at 147 just as good as anyone else, and now he gets to cash in after all these years, and after all that stuff with his wife. Having said that, he will lose.
