Mayweather Sr: "Hey Nate, Guzman is No Juan Diaz"

[Boofdatruth]

huh? How did you come to that conclusion? What part of my sentence is incorrect and/or suggests I think Guzman is better?

I simply said Guzman is similar in ways (defense and natural athleticism), then went on to say guzman tends to throw more and takes more chances (the latter being a negative about his style not a positive).

You said that Guzman trades way more than Floyd. Floyd moves during a fight and he always sits center ring with his opponent and trades...EVERY fight. Guzman is constantly moving which isn't a negative. He trades at times, but does not do this more than Floyd. It's not that big a deal that you said this. It just struck my mind when I read your post...no biggie. He does not trade WAY more than Floyd. Even when Floyd fought bigger men, he sat down and traded a couple of times during a fight. Guzman has not fought many men naturally heavier than him. He does trade with you, but it's more of a in and out thing. Again, I'm not knocking Guzman in any way.

exactly. If there is any fighter out there that resembles floyd's style, I'd say it's guzman. No other name comes to mind. Obviously they are not carbon copies but it's obvious they fight in a similar fashion.

Agree...

Which is obvious anyway because of Snr training him
But he has floyds style 4sure

It makes me cringe just reading the responses on some of these threads...

"Guzrun"

The ****s not even funny...not clever...its corny. Guzman boxes his ass off and does a beautiful job of being aggressive and defensive conversely. If you guys think good ol Nate Campbell can lunge in and crowd Guzman you must be extremely confused. Guzman is not getting knocked out by Nate Campbell--who looked impressive against Diaz because Diaz is the classic mexican brawler with zero tricks up his sleeve. Nate isn't as "slick" as marketed--Guzman will win an EASY UD.

>.< Your knocking Guzman! Nah J/K. By the way I agree with what you've said. He trades more NOT by alot but by a little.
