Can anyone see Guerrerro beating Mayweather on May 4th?

Thanks for the reply.

Too slow and flat footed.

Yeah, Guerrero is made to order for Floyd. He isn't afraid to engage and does have a lot of heart though, and that can carry a fighter quite far. Still, the chances of him winning are minute.

[jazluvr]

Not really. I think the Ghost's only chance is to stay on the outside, try to catch Floyd on the counter. Preferably with the right hook over Floyd's jab then the straight left down the pipe. He needs to do that early and try to get him out of there. I think if Guerrero fights a pressure fight, he is in trouble. Floyd is a excellent spoiler on the inside.

Does anybody think the fight deserves odds?

From this point on, every fight mayweather takes places his opponent in a better position of victory. Mayweather isn't what he used to be.

I say go for it, but do realize that to beat mayweather in vegas, you have to knock him out.

The more suitable question would be, is Guerrero capable of knocking mayweather out?

oh yeah, because all of Floyd's opponents get robbed right?

[Metho_4u]

I would be happy for Robert if he won... but I don't give him a whole lot of chances. Upsets happen yes, but even with Floyd getting older, he is back at 147 fighting a guy his size. Cotto, no matter what anyone says is big, he was big for a 147 lb fighter. He's not a big 154 lb fighter, but IMO Floyd isn't really a 154 lb fighter. His skill would allow him to fight there, but bodywise he's maxxed out at about 150.

I think it will happen. Floyd has been getting hit more and more in recent fights and now even in sparring. Plus he has been making comments that lead me to believe his heart isn't fully in it anymore. I think the Ghost will break him down and hurt him over the long haul.

[Meanrighthook29]

I honestly can't and that's not taking anything away from guerrero who's a good fighter. He's just slow, flat footed and gets hit too much. Imo this fight is set up for a mayweather ko/tko.

[Priest Andretti]

He has to hurt and stop him. He won't take it one the cards.

Can he hurt Floyd? Yes. This will be a tough fight for Floyd.

[Alpha & Omega]

People are hilarious....Floyd looked "bad" against Cotto because he got a bloody nose lol? Floyd moved up to 154 and dominated the 154lb champion and even came close to stopping him in the 12th had he stepped on the gas. He lost maybe what, 2 rounds legitimately? I am not taking anything away from Guerrero but Floyd has beaten bigger, stronger, faster, tougher and more skilled fighters than Ghost. Anything can happen in the ring but unless Floyd is shot, old overnight or something utterly unexpected happens I do not see Ghost winning. The WW victories Ghost had were against Aydin, who is slow and limited and the Ghost ran and potshotted all night to avoid being KOed and he beat no chin/no recovery Berto by fouling the living **** out of him all night long and leaning on him against the ropes. If anyone believes Floyd will fight like Berto did is a total fool. Cotto was a solid, heavy handed 154lber who is a knockout puncher and he could not even hurt Floyd at all.

I have no idea what Floyd will look like in the Ghost fight, no one will until May 4. I am confident sure but I cannot guarantee anything. If there is any perfect moment to beat Floyd this is it....1st fight after being in prison, on the skids with his former best friend 50 cent and with Roger having bad health not being able to be in his corner. If Ghost cannot beat Floyd in this perfect storm of negativity in his life, no one is beating him probably.

[Redd Foxx]

While its not likely, there's more of a chance of Floyd losing now than there has been in years. I think prison affected Floyd as he's behaving different on camera now. No longer the ball of energy. If that has any bearing on his fight mentality, he could be in trouble with a relentless, hungry, and disciplined guy like Guererro. Robert is not as skilled as Floyd, but he gamelans extremely well and could very well bring the upset if May has slipped at all.

Ortiz had the hunger, but was predictable and he mentally fell apart when he got frustrated. That won't happen to Guererro so either he decisions an aging and discouraged Mayweather, or he goes out like DLH, fighting like a mad dog but getting counterpunched for 12 rounds.
