He is going to need to mix it up. Pressuring floyd like he did to berto, even though floyd is leagues above berto. And boxing him too. I believe robert could have held the center of the ring with berto and won comfortably, but he chose not too. This fight will prove or disprove that mayweathers legs have slowed.
Lets get it on.
That's what has surprised me most about Guerrero in his last two fights. He is a very good technical boxer but he has out brawled these guys and I hadn't really seen him fight in that manner before.
What if he was setting Floyd up by allowing him to believe he would be facing a brawler, start the fight brawling and then switch up to slick boxing on a whim? That would be pretty cool....
Bradley is still open as far as I know, although I hear he may fight Peterson in a rematch.
I did not mention Bradley because that fight might be the hardest one to make as opposed to Guerrero or Canelo. Floyd beats all three in my opinion.

There really isn't anyone else in the WW division for Floyd to fight. Guerrero beat 2 WW's in Berto and Aydin jumping up in weight. Both fights were far from pretty, but he grinded it out for a W. The only other person out there is Paulie. Everyone else is tied up or coming off of a fight right?

They did something similar in the past that was false.
Floyd is fighting Canelo. Count on it.
i was just about to post this. I think it is going to happen and then floyd will fight Canelo in September imo
This is the way I see it too. Guerrero is one of my favorite boxers but I think Canelo with his youth, size and strength would be a bigger threat to Floyd, literally. It only makes sense for Floyd to make millions fighting Guerrero before fighting Canelo on Mexican Independence Day in September. If Canelo beats him down in May, Floyd loses out on the millions he could have made against Guerrero.
Floyd will retire for good after his first loss.
"I don't even know who Robert "The Ghost" Guerrero is."-Floyd Mayweather Jr
I'd be lying to say that i won't watch it, but I will not buy this bullsh*t sparring session.
For the record, I think Floyd will fight Guerrero next, but boxrec also had Pac vs Floyd two or three times, so they can have the wrong information too
Not the fight I wanted BTW.
But it was obvious when Schaefer shut down Canelo vs Mayweather for May 4th. Who else can it be? It won't be Trout, it won't be a Top Rank fighter Timothy Bradley, it will not be Khan who doesn't have a win over a top fighter since beating Judah last year, definitely not Pacquiao, Marquez is pondering retirement, Cotto will take a vacation and he just lost, Alexander is fighting Brook.
That leaves it at Guerrero and Maidana, and Guerrero is coming off the better win right now.
This is true and makes soo much sense, But..... No one will notice and will just say "he's not fighting the best the division has to offer, or he's ducking someone, Blah Blah Blah..."
he was smothering berto... thats not entertaining.. i wont pay to see him hug mayweather and punch for the judges... i want to see bad intentions behind punches... No way in hell am i paying 60 bucks to see the ghost fight....
Have you seen his fights before Berto and Aydin?
Boring style? Was Guerreros last fight vs berto boring to you? He fought like a possessed maniac . Of course Floyd will beat his asss but at least he will make it entertaining

BoxRec had Mayweather/Pac fight listed without the contract being signed the first time around
The Ghost is not scared of blood and needles so there is no reason the fight won't be made due to excuses.
This fight right now is the only one that makes sense if Floyd is fighting at WW.
However no fighter at 147 would be considered good enough. Unless he fights MW's or someone at JMW that sets themselves apart from everyone else (maybe Trout here soon), that's just the way it's going to be.
I'm not necessarily a big fan of this fight, but IMO Guerrero will make this a tougher fight than we're expecting. Even though that win over Berto was some rough stuff, I think he's actually a pretty smart and savvy ring pro. He may not win but he'll throw everything he ****ing can at Floyd while trying. It might be good.
Lol its obvious, its gona be Guerrero vs Moneymay, ive said it if Guerrero beat Berto it was gona be the obvious choice even do i thought Berto was gona win it, GBP moves are so obvious lol
