    Biggest issue with RG making it a rough fight is he's gonna have to eat leather from the most accurate puncher in the sport.

      You can only blame yourself for not trying enough and for not asking God for the drive and strength to push through the times where you wanted to quit. If God "wanted" a person to fail, it's only for them to gain the insight through retrospect that they need to succeed on the next try.

        I really don't think Guerrero has anything in his arsenal to make Floyd look worse than Cotto's jab could. I think Floyd is way past it regardless, but will look better in this outing.

          Hes a good, solid technician.

          I think The Ghost has a trick or two up his sleeve and has been baiting people into thinking he can only fight an ugly, phone booth fight. He will do that at times but that long jab is coming out in this fight and I don't think Floyd will be expecting it. Floyd has likely only bothered to watch the Ghost's last two fights and will expect that kind of a fight.

          You can't show all your cards at one time....he has been solely focused on a Floyd fight the last 2 years and I think the last two fights were just him trying to work on his inside game. He is a VERY GOOD technician who can stick and move with the best of them, he has a better jab than Cotto does imo.

            I doubt it the biggest reason Cotto won that many rounds (5 in my card) was because of his jab. Guerrero dowsnt have that in his arsenal.
