He was a beast in his the lower weight divisions but he lost power when he moved up in weight?
Do you think he possesses the punching power to be heavy handed?

and there is no promotion either by don king. I know people that live down there and have no idea where the fight is, no info on where to buy tickets, etc.
I'm surprised Don king must be slippin or something
Undefeated proves nothing.
This is the same Arum who will put Pacquiao against DLH...
So you'd be a fool to fall for a businessman's word.
That's 2 common sense already.
The top guys are presumed to be the ones with titles.
A presumption which cannot be overruled because one has an UNDEFEATED record nor one out of Arum's words.. It has a sterner standard that just that.
That's 3 common sense already.
Need I say more?
3 common sense......
Anyway, I'm not saying Arum doesn't lie. I think he lied about why Guzman couldn't fight Manny. But, what the truth behind his statement WAS, is that Guzman was too dangerous. That says something.
Furthermore, I don't presume that a guy with a title was anything more than a guy with the title. The only person at 135 with a TRUE title is Joel Casamayor. End of story.
Regardless, he has PLENTY of worthy challengers. Technically, Guzman could be one of them if Casa gets passed Marquez.
Somewhere along the alphabet titles... a guy names John doe ranked no.4 lurks...
DOes that mean he's a somebody? LOls
Let's use common sense...
The SOMEBODY'S OF 135 are Campbell, Casamayor and Pacquiao...
The wannabee pretenders are the rest.
Saying Guzman is a somebody at 135 without proving anything is like saying you can beat Godzilla with your fart.
Common sense dude. Use it a little bit more.
He's undefeated, ranked by most organized bodies and even Arum himself said that he's a bit too tricky to fight Manny. Wasn't worth the risk.
So, that equals somebody. You can't act like the titles make the top guys, then diss the rankings that fall under them.
Really good points.
anyone notice the "mayweather shoulder roll" when he's against the ropes in my sig? sr. must have taught him that, lol
I was even gonna mention that he has a shoulder-roll defense that doesn't allow him too many spots to throw punches that could add up. Which might ultimately lead into a KO.
I'm not fighting to prove to the fans who's the best.
I wanna fight COtto but not right now
Pissing on his pants...
Yeah...
To cowards like you gayweather is your god.
Now go suck his balls some more.
COwards prefer other cowards.
And I smell idiot fake Floyd fans like you a mile away.
COward smells stink you know.
And yours' like a rat dung.
I'm Sorry I can't take you seriously, you don't read at all do you...
Bye now
Until he does that he is a nobody.
It's just common sense.
If you have enough clout to be ranked by SOME division, then clearly someone knows who you are. So, THAT would be common sense.
Guzman has looping/wide punches because he has angles. He throws a shot to make it land, to look impressive. Not worried about the power behind it. When he was at the lower weight classes, he didn't worry about the punches and he was still developing his style. He was a little more stationary.
Now that he's more of a mover, and has a defensive-minded trainer, he has more lateral movement, more moving in general, more angles and more cleverness. Because of this, his power has faded in the sense that he doesn't do AS much overall damage and he throws trickier shots to duck or block.
However, his speed has remarkably increased as he went up because he doesn't load up at all.
I watched the Barrios fight and the Soto fight.
Dude Guzman throws a lot of hayemakers and looping punches which turn into a slap coz of the angle of the punch.
I'm just stating the obvious.
And if anyone's the coward... it has to be you.
You love gayweather am I right? lols.
Cowards prefer other cowards.
Like you.
I liked Mayweather until he retired not fighting the best at WW.
He still has great skills just won't utilize them against the best in WW, can't knock the guy because he fought great fighters 140 and below..
He is No coward.
You PHAIL
Guzman does have looping punches, but its mostly because of the positions he finds himself in through the fights.
Guzman ain't a puncher to be feared, but he's got decent pop to go wit his boxing skill. Nate's a pretty tough guy, so he should be a good gauge of Guzman's power at LW.
if you watched the Barrios fight you could see Guzman showing a little punching power on the mits but there was a graphic of Guzman's last 4 fights covering the screen so its difficult what to make out of it .
Until he beats Campbell... then he is a nobody.
The SOMEBODY is Campbell.
It's not even an argument dude so don't even try.
It's pure common sense and if you can't understand that then remain ignorant.
Guzman is going to embarrass Campbell. I really can't wait.
