Comments Thread For: Guerrero: Mayweather Bout is Today's David vs. Goliath

[Foolkiller]

All this talk and nobody has yet to provide any tangible or valid reason that Guererro has a chance to win. What does he do better than Floyd, what does he do differently that will bother Floyd? Besides hold the back of the head and hit like he did Berto. Not that Floyd is invincible but this is not the guy to do it. Please he's doing all the talking which I'm sure is motivating Floyd more than he's been in a long time

1. He has a chance to win because he's Floyd's opponent (any given Sunday)
2. He's a South Paw, with similar height and reach
3. Can maintain a high punch output
4. Has shown a sturdy chin
5. Can box and brawl
6. He is driven by his faith
7. Willing to cheat (he'll hold and hit)
8. Floyd is getting up in age/slowing down (cotto fight)

Hope at least one of these gives RG a "chance" to win

Lets cite those three fights mentioned. Hatton, Cotto, Ortiz.

Hatton was much smaller, one dimensional, and led with his chin. That certainly didn't take much to fighure out. Pacquiao knocked him stone cold in 2 rounds.

Cotto well past his prime, roughed up Floyd, bloodied his nose, roughed up his face, made him fight the entire fight. Cotto was stronger, but has had too many wars and couldn't turn it up a notch to stop Floyd. Mayweather made Cotto and Mosley wait more than 10 years before he would fight either, as they were too dangerous in their prime.

Ortiz, had the game plan, the size, the hand speed, the toughness, and was manhandling Floyd around the ring and on the ropes. THEN Ortiz got ******, looked at the ref on a break with his hands at his sides, and Floyd seized the opportunity to land on him with a dirty shot, so to get out of a fight, he clearly knew was not going well for him. Ortiz was finished. Young & ******. Ortiz had the shot of a lifetime, was really doing a number on Floyd, would have stopped Floyd later in the fight had it continued, then got blind shot.

Guerrero won't be ****** like Ortiz. He is not past his prime like Cotto. He is certainly not one dimensional, or a lead with your chin like Hatton. Guerrero is larger and stronger than Ortiz and Hatton, a primed version of Cotto, with a LOT of heart, no fear, a lot of fight within. This will be the end of the trail for Floyd when he gets knocked out my Guerrero.

Wow, how can you make excuses for every Floyd win, lol. Pacquiao knocked Hatton out faster but Floyd knocked out 1st and I'd rather be the 1st . Floyd was landing rights on Ortiz at will and it was early, I can just imagine what Ortiz would have looked like later in the fight and hey Cotto took him to war, not your traditional Mayweather fight but he handled his business, can't knock that.

Man, what a terrible approach to the fight. You don't want to make this Floyd vs Jesus with Guerrero at the wheel..

[rocktx]

Tbh...I don't like Ghost referencing and comparing his fight vs Floyd to Moses/pharoah..David/goliath.
He's referencing a biblical form where pharoah was enslaving the Israelites..
What exactly does this fight have to do with any of this..Who is Floyd harming..??
They both believe and thank God...its a boxing match..I appreciate his stance, but I get annoyed when people start saying things like this..sure Floyd loves money, which he needs to be careful of..but who is he hurting in the process..!. Ghost needs think before he speaks..God doesn't favor Tebow,Lolo Jones, nor Robert in the sense of sports.. It's sports..nothing more, nothing less!

I agree... Guerrero's biblical analogy is way off because Pharaoh and Goliath did not believe in God at all. Floyd may love his money too much but if you still acknowledge God and believe in him then you are one of his children just like Guerrero is.

I want Guerrero to catch a beating. The way people value arrogance is somewhat mind boggling for me. I'm not going to say Mayweather is a humble man ( as he is far from it) but walking around with the attitude that God favours you other another man is the height of conceit. The more he opens his mouth is the more I develop a feeling of disdain towards him.

EXACTLY this^^^^^^^^

[antrecasner]

One guy looks ready to fight this weekend and the other is building distractions and constantly mouthing off about biblical stories and what not. I respect the mans faith and all but it's time to stop the interviews and hit the gym very hard until your camp breaks. The fight is a little more than a month a way and this guy doesn't seem to be half way close to ready in my humble opinion. This isn't the fight you train the norm for, he needs to be in tip top form physically and mentally and I don't see it.

There are plenty of things you could say about Mayweather without having to resort to flat out lies - call a spade a spade

[110110110]

As soon as people start talking about God as if he was real, I pack my **** and leave.

Religion is insanity

[Sin City]

"And then he (Mayweather) tells me ‘you fight for your legacy, you fight for principles; I fight for money.’ And I told him, ‘that’s your problem. You worship your money; money’s your God.’ He didn’t like that; he froze up when I told him that"

Well said Guerrero, well said. Really hard to root against Guerrero.

although, I know Mayweather doesn't have the punching power or won't commit to the punches.. I sure do hope he knocks Guerrero out for all this arrogant and bull**** 'god is on my side' talk.

nothing more annoying than someone who does nothing but preaches their gospel all day
