    Guerrero is probably one of the easiest fights Floyd will have in recent memory. I remember thinking Hatton would put up a tough fight and he did for a few rounds. I think this would be similar to that.

      Right, no problems huh Ghost? lol We shall see May 4th who's slow and foolish. I am not saying Floyd can't be beaten, he is human, but for Ghost to beat Floyd, it will have to be a perfect storm of Ghost fighting the absolute best fight of his life and for Floyd to fight the absolute worst fight of his life. I am not saying that is impossible, but highly unlikely. I mean Hatton, Cotto, Shane all said the are gonna come out and force their will on Floyd and pressure him into defeat...well what happened then if doing that is so easy according to Ghost?

      Meh eventually Floyd is going to lose to someone if he keeps fighting but I just do not see it being a loss to Ghost. If Ghost could not stop Katsidis, Casamayor or Berto, I just see no way in hell he is stopping Floyd, which to me is the only way he can legitimately win (unless Floyd gets robbed via decision). I guess come May 4th we will see what we see....

        Robert could win by first round ko and he was still never be a star. No star quality about the guy.

          It'll be interesting to see, I think Mayweather will be happy to sit in the pocket and trade with Guerrero on occasions, there's one thing people don't really discuss about Mayweather and that's how conservative of a fighter he is in the ring, he never wastes energy, has a high accuracy rating and picks his shots brilliantly, Mayweather will adjust his tactics to compliment any physical degradation he's feeling due to his age.

          That said, Guerrero will force Mayweather to work, perhaps more than Mayweathers comfortable with and that's Guerreros key to winning here, he has to make Mayweather uncomfortable and smother him.

            Floyd acts the way he does to sell fights. I'd rather have him being a pretend villain then listen to Guerrero go on about his faith nonsense. Floyds inspiration should come from his work ethic, how he always stays on point, and performs at his best in the ring. Dude is probably the hardest worker in the sport. That's why I like Floyd, he doesn't slack off and get lazy, him and B-Hop both are similar in that aspect. If I wanted to hear a sermon, Id go to church.

              Talk, talk, talk..we will see what each man has to offer on fight night..the result of this fight is in the air..we dont know how Guerrero plans to attack in this fight and we dont know how much Floyd has in the tank or whether the time off has hurt him..so see ya'll on fight night cause talking about results or this or that at this point is pointless.

                A gun in locked case, unloaded with two empty clips. His wife took it ON A PLANE from Cali to VA with no issues so I don't know why people think he is an idiot for bringing it to the NY airport. He clearly just didn't know NY's laws regarding it as they aren't very common. He even declared that he had it, a thug would have done the opposite.

                It's not like he had the gun stashed in his pant leg or something loaded to the hilt.

                He would have been much cooler burning dollar bills or accusing others of steroid usage or choking out parking police imo.

                  That speaks more to the interests of the American audience imo. The Klitchkos, Froch, Kessler, Alvarez...these guys are all massive stars in their respective countries. Americans like thugs and KO's, that's what sells here.

                    Carl Froch certainly isn't a massive star in the UK. He's getting there, after long last, but he's not.

                    A massive star here is someone like Amir Khan.
