Will Floyd Look Better Against Guerrero Than He Did Against Cotto?

[JRB123]

I'm actually laughing myself.

Imagine he says it and Jim Gray is like "Roger, you can't really say that" and Roger butts in with some incoherent, high pitch, shouting/mumbling followed by "I told you mother****er's, all the best fighters come from the midwest, where the **** Jesus from? It ain't the mid west. Ok then......"

He always say's "Ok then......" Get's me everytime. He'll even say it if he didn't make any point at all.

I'm a big fan of Roger I feel bad for doing this.

In regards to the fight, I say that Guerrero will end up being frustrated once the fight lingers because he won't be able to affect Floyd up close like he would prefer to do...Mayweather makes you miss in close quarters and throws effectively in close. Kind of similar to how Sweet Pea does it but Whitaker made you miss up close and at a distance by ducking and dodging at a higher rate than Floyd...

By round three Floyd will pick up his pace as he will figure out Robert's movements...and just like against Ortiz, he will embarass him...

Cotto is kind of underrated as a fighter...Other than Mosley, Cotto was one of the fighters that I thought would challenge Floyd.

He'll look about the same imo.

Both are former quitters and weak cherrypicks. Shouldn't be too hard to stunt on him.

He better, Guerrero is a Super Featherweight and Floyd is a Junior Middleweight that put on alot of muscle.

IF Guerrero takes more than 2 rounds it'll show how overrated Floyd is

[xenotactics]

He fights nothing like Margarito!
Watch his fights before his move up. Its only recently hes fought that way and he actually started out boxing against Berto before bullying him & smothering him on the inside and not allowing him to get full leverage on his punches.

He actually got his name ''The Ghost'' because he was pretty slick and very hard to catch flush.

He fights nothing like Marg...did you see how much he got tagged in the Berto fight? Did you see how his defense was non existant in the Berto fight? If the same Guerrero that fought Berto shows up for the Mayweather its going to be a lopsided victory for floyd and im pretty sure that floyd is betting on that....thats why he chose to fight him.

Guerrero is his mandatory & ranked #3 behind only Floyd & Marquez (who he already easily beat)
Most of the top 154 crop are already scheduled, inactive/in law suits or just absolutely rubbish so who would you like him to fight instead?

[KickAzz]

can't really compare the two fights.

Cotto hits harder, and has a strong jab, and is bigger and heavier.

pretty much all Guerrero has going for him is that he hasn't taken as much damage and wear and tear as Cotto and he's a decent pressure fighter / phone both grappler.

where both guys fail is their lack of stamina, but Robert has better stamina than Cotto.

I don't think it'll matter cause Floyd will still win but Guerrero's smothering style will give Floyd problems, different kind of problems than he faced against Cotto

[boliodogs]

I voted that Guerrero will give him a harder fight. Floyd will be one year further over the hill with a year of ring rust. Guerrero is dead in his prime unlike Cotto who was past prime and had taken beatings from Margarito and Pacquiao. Guerrero has a high pressure style somewhat simular to Castillo who gave Floyd trouble. He is a good natural southpaw with a rough, physical style, good stamina, and a high work rate for all 12 rounds. All of these things make me think this will be a harder fight for Floyd than Cotto was.

I wouldve loved to see may and trout/may and s. martinez. With may's picks lately i wouldnt be surprised if may challenged paul williams next, lol

[Public_Enemy]

I think the Cotto fight will prove to be tougher. Floyd should be sharper at 147. The thing that impressed me most about Cotto was how much he made Floyd miss and blocked punches with his gloves. Guerrero on the other hand will be there to be hit and Floyd should be able to exploit that.

Trout may not even get passed Canelo & Sergio is a middleweight who is tied up. Floyd can barely even make 154.

Its almost unless he goes up to heavyweight to face Wlad some people will never be happy.
