    Should Robert Guerrero Move Up?

    Guerrero seems to be on a treadmill at 126 right now. He could possibly get a unification match against one of the other titleholders, but there ain't any big names left at featherweight. I think he should get in the mix at 130. JMM is the top guy in Pac's absence, but he'll probably move up to get the third Pac fight sooner tha later, and the division will be up for grabs. I think Guerrero can make some exciting fights with the top ranked guys at 130 and win some more belts there. He's a good boxer and a decent puncher who looks like he might have some money in his future, but I think he'll go stale if he hangs at 126 too much longer.

    I think Guerrero is just starting to come into his own. If he can make 126 comfortably, that's where he should stay for now. He hasn't even proven he's better than Salido yet, and JMM toyed with Salido.

        There are basically two fights for Guerrero at 126. Luevano and Linares. John probably will never come over here so that fight can get thrown out the door. If those fights can't be made then I see him moving up, because he could make for some exciting fights.

              I don't think Guerrero is that good. I don't even think he can rule 126, and I think he gets punished by tons of guys at 130. Hell he should pray Vazquez, Marquez, De Leon, or Caballero don't decide to move up because they all beat him.

              Maybe I'm hard on him but he has never convinced me.

                "go stale at 126". plenty of good fights where he's at.
                plus big named superbantums making their way up.
                feel querrero needs more seasoning and should only
                move up when making weight becomes an issue.

                  Vazquez and Marquez, maybe. DeLeon and Caballero? I don't think so. Actually I think DeLeon will be an ex-champion after his next fight.

                    Yeah you're being hard on him. Guerrero easily beats De Leon, comfortabley beats Caballero, and I'd give him a good chance against Vasquez and Marquez. I'd personally like to see him stay at feather and try to unify the division. Its going to be hard with two other great champions in Leuvano and Linares, but lately Guerrero has looked to be on a mission and getting better each fight. I'd like to see him avenge his loss/NC to cheat Salido then unify.
