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

[radioraheem]

Here is a good highlight of Guerrero before his move up. Don't be fooled into thinking he is a brawler with a bad D.

Hes a good, solid technician.

He's not a good solid technician. He's one dimensional. If you take a look at all his difficult fights, he dogfights. Always. Against Salido, where he lost, he was dogfighting. Berto, dogfighting. Aydin, dogfighting. Plantanas Diaz, years ago, dogfighting, and he still lost.

When he's facing pushovers, that aren't that good in the first place, or over the hill, he tends to box. But by no means is he a solid technician. And he's definitely not in the same league as a guy like Cotto. Guerrero would NOT, and I mean, WOULD NOT beat Cotto if they were to face each other. Only the delusional, in my opinion, actually thinks Guerrero is better than Cotto.

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.

Floyd couldve challenged trout instead of guerrero and he couldve accepted martinez's challenge when he offered to fight floyd at 154. Instead floyd challenged some guy that just went up to147 and really isnt proven at that weight. Shouldnt floyd(self claimed to be the best) only fight the best? Trout is an undefeated champ andmartinez is currently the peoples champ...yet floyd decides to fight the little guy...hmmm, thats not the actions of a GOAT

I think Floyd will perform the same. I do believe the Ghost however, will outperform Cotto.

Guerrero has the heart, but not the ability.

Floyd is just on another level.

Unless Floyd has deteriorated a lot since his last fight this is going to be a UD12.

Guerrero was a good featherweight but it is no secret this is a just a comeback bout for Mayweather, a tune up!
Mayweather would not fight a guy like Cotto now. I think this is a mismatch and a record padder for Floyd.

he has neither. we all saw the yordan fight. when things don't go his way he quits. enjoy another quittage or at least i hope we get another sucker punch ko.

Ive been saying this to everyone I think the first round guerrero is gonna come out throwing bombs while floyd trys to find range and get his timing. I wouldnt be surprised to see a flash knockdown of Floyd in the 1st or second. Once he gets up hes going to embarass Guerrero for the rest of the fight especially at 147.

Flash knockdown???? You smoking that **** 2 huh!!!

Guerrero will be easier for Floyd. Cotto has good timing and came in with a good gameplan. Guerrero's plan will most likely be pressure and many punches, which leaves many opportunities for counter punches.

[mathed]

The Ghost is a southpaw for starters and he isn't going to show Floyd any respect. Expect Ghost to hit on the break, rabbit punch, and rough Floyd up when he wants to find space. I think the Ghost will show more than one facet of his game, he will likely box in spots and make it a rough in-fight at times.

Floyd may very well win but I think he looks the worst he has ever looked in this fight.

Cotto is a much more accomplished fighter than Robert.

Robert doesn't do anything exceptionally well. He's like Tim Bradley's taller hispanic cousin. Exceptional heart, solid boxer with below average power for the weight class. Solid fighter but no where near the caliber of Cotto let alone FMJ.

This is the same Guerrero that lost to Orlando Salido at lightweight. Salido out boxed Robert for crying out loud. Just imagine what Money will do to this guy? Let't not forget that Floyd.s best punch is a right hand counter. The same punch one eyed Berto was tagging him with all night long. Robert won't see the 6 round.
