He already comes from the smaller weight classes, if he was to move down to 140 he'd probably be better and it's already a stacked division, plus broner will probably move down there once he KO's Paulie.
He could probably do it if he had too but he probably won't after getting accustomed to making 147 for his last 3 fights. Alot of GBP's 140 lb fighters are going to be coming to 147 so 47 is going to be really stacked. He won't have to go anywhere. The only reason I see him going is just to add a belt in another weight class but I doubt it.
I don't see Guerrero beating Garcia, Peterson, Matthyse, Khan, or Broner at 140.
He could handily beat a couple of a those. Guerrero's a good fighter, he just got outclassed by the best boxer on the planet. He's still very talented.
I remember after JMM was outclassed by Floyd and Khan said he wanted to fight JMM, people were actually accusing Khan of cherrypicking an old man and that he'd beat JMM into retirement. Search on here for it.
Losing to Floyd doesn't discard a fighters ability to beat other top contenders. Guerrero will do alright, he'd beat Peterson and Khan fairly easily and could outbox Matthyse imo
There are still plenty of fights left for Guerrero at 147. He can fight Khan if he moves up. The Maidana/Lopez winner would be perfect for the undercard of Mayweather vs Canelo. He can fight Keith Thurman, if his handlers are ready to step up. Guerrero Berto 2 hell skys the limit. Showtime is owning HBO in the matchmaking department.
I'm definately lookin foward to that !
me too...boxing will have great match-ups in the future...good to be a boxing fan...and i enjoyed 2013 so far also :boxing:
He probably could, but I'm sure he'll hang at 147. Most of the 140 lbs will come up to him. I can't see Danny, Lucas, Khan, or Rios fighting at 140 much longer. Bradley, Devon, Victor all went through the same thing. In a year or so Welterweight will once again be the premiere division. All of the above names and probably Alvarado, Ruslan, Peterson, Marquez, Pacquiao, Berto, Guerrero, and of course Floyd.
