Berto starts off fast and thinks he will make short work of the Ghost but shows signs of fatigue after the first round due to his exertion. He pulls it back a bit for the next 2 rounds and then tries to attack heavily again and he again shows signs of fatigue.
Guerrero remains evasive and works the jab as Berto attacks. Berto pins Robert against the ropes but gets tagged while trying to fight inside. By round 5 or 6, Berto is looking somewhat tired in general and only attacks near the end of the round trying to steal it away from the more active Guerrero.
By round 8, Guerrero is pressing the action heavily and he starts to drive Berto into the ropes and is bullying the bigger man. When rounds 11 and 12 roll around, Berto is completely spent and just hoping to make the final bell.
Guerrero wins a SD because two of the judges have him winning 8 or 9 of the rounds while one judge has Berto winning the fight. Questions come up regarding Berto taking Guerrero seriously and overlooking him for a Floyd fight, he denies it and says the layoff played no factor.
May of next year, Floyd wants Guerrero as an opponent.
