      4. The Ghost throws close to 1000 punches per 12 round fight
      5. Guerrero is a smart fighter and doesnt lose many rounds
      6. He's got better punching power then people think which will keep Floyd honest
      7. The Ghost has one of the best jabs in boxing.

      I state my case for The Ghost and his tools. Its going to be a great fight.

      I will address your points as you numbered them
      1. Just not true and I hope you not basing this off his last 2 fights espcially Berto cause that was not great in-fighting he just mauled Berto. Besides that Guerrero not close to being a better inside fighter than PBF.
      2. Guerrero has been known as a boxer is a good boxer from the outside but he not a better boxer than PBF.
      3. Just parroting what others have said for years which doesn't seem like its true to me cause PBF has fought lefty's before and is undefeated against them so blah to that.
      4. Means absolutely nothing when landing less than 25% of them and track records show that punch outputs drop when facing PBF.
      5. Guerrero's ring IQ is not even the same league as PBF so you said that to what really when he facing PBF.
      6. That is possible but remains to be seen.
      7. I don't know about one of the best jabs in boxing but its good though.

      PBF being old and slowing down is the only thing in Guerrero's favor regarding this possible fight. Guerrero does nothing better than PBF even at this advanced stage of PBF career that doesn't bode will for Guerrero. I like Guerrero but his chances in the fight are slim and none IMO. The numbers and attributes of each fighter back up that claim.

        Robert Guerrero is a talented ring warrior. He's a man of strong character and a nice guy outside the ring too.

        Guerrero is my favorite American boxer.

          Serious question. Why does the bold matter to people(you)? I love to watch boxers box, basketball players play basketball, and the same for football, baseball and soccer(rare though). What these athletes do outside of sports means **** all to me. I just don't get needing to like the personality of an athlete to like them. Sh!+ like that is strange to me.

            *** no!!! Robert Guerrero is a sorry excuse of a welterweight.

            The minute Guerrero steps in the ring with a real welterweight (that wasn't coming off a 15 month lay-off) he's gonna get his ass beat and probably knocked out....... This is coming from a Guerrero fan.

            too bad Guerrero skipped the 140 pound division, there could of been some great fights involving him at 140.

              I find it impossible to root for boxers like Mayweather or Braehmer who beat up women.

              I like to see the good guys win and the creeps lose.

                I believe that you're extremely overreacting. There are far worse welterweights than the Ghost. As a matter of fact he's 1 of the best.

                  What woman or women did Broner beat up? Haven't heard about that. Nobody said you have to root for them. The bold is the point I am making you nor I and most fans don't know these fighters personally. So truth be told you don't really know who is a good guy and who is a creep. I don't let the media tell me who is who and what is what about peoples lives on a personal level. The media and athletes have an agenda so we never really know the whole truth or what that person is really like outside of the ring. That is why I could careless about what they do outside of boxing.

                  You entitled to your opinion and I respect that.

                    I said Braehmer, not Broner.
