Comments Thread For: Robert Guerrero: Mayweather Knows He's In For A Fight

[IIG]

Man....no! Arguably the best defensive fighter in boxing history is going to get "busted up" by a slow, flat-footed brawler with a two inch reach disadvantage? Please......Guerrero will be lucky if he makes it past 6. I predict a Gatti beating. Floyd's gonna be tagging this dude AT WILL.

Green K for having the greatest screen name in BoxingScene's history.

lol.. easy to look that good defensively vs overmatched and over the hill opponents.. cotto's been the most efficient quality of opponent.. just a little past his prime and look how he ended up.. bloody and tagged up.. DLH, even though past his prime.. got away from the jab but was landing shots

People's jab goes away because they get countered over the time. You mention the two times he went to 154, he's at 147 here. Floyd is going to be beyond fine. Just enjoy the beatdown that Floyd gives Robert on next Saturday

article says salido was juicing

It doesn't really matter. If he's good enough to be in the ring with Floyd he should've have won that fight. De La Hoya beat Vargas when he was juicing he also beat Shane in the rematch in most people's minds and Shane was juicing. Superior talent finds a way to win. Floyd shuts him out 12-0.

I agree with the possibility of a shutout...but Guerrero is a way better fighter then he was back in the salido fight...you gotta give Guerrero more credit then that

No I don't. He beat a shot Berto and a no name slow Aydin to earn this spot. Two fighters very far below Floyd's level. Guerrero is gonna lose bad don't believe the hype.

sheeiitt... didnt even notice that.. lol.. good point.. still think there's a little more competative opposition out there.. i honestly thought pac had a good chance due to his footwork and headmovement.. but that's all a wash now.. and i agree.. floyd will pot shot his way to a UD.. he's not an idiot like berto to trade and get cornered.. way better defensively!!

We can all say what we think will happen but come May 4 we will see. If Ghost legitimately beats Floyd, I have no issues with him. Will I be disappointed? Absolutely. Will it mean Floyd is on his way out skillwise? Absolutely. However if Ghost wins he wins. That being said, I just don't see it. Floyd has faced fighters who were better boxers, brawlers, bigger, stronger, faster, tougher, etc. That does not mean Ghost can't win, upsets happen all the time. But it is Floyd's fight to lose in my opinion. That monster shot Floyd got buckled with by Shane would have dropped a horse so I just do not see Ghost dropping Floyd. The punishment Berto took was a total. He sat on the ropes all night letting Ghost beat him up. Also Ghost for all his self-righteousness is a dirty mf fighter. Floyd is gonna elbow or sucker punch his ass if he tries that crap with him. Personally all this talk, I think Ghost is shook, honestly. It is false bravado in my opinion. But hey, we will see I guess.

Money May in May!!

Outside of that whole Showtime faceoff they did, Floyd hasn't really said much about Guerrero. I'm just not sure why every interview I read from Guerrero, he always talking about how Floyd is trying to get in his head... Its like Guerrero is making up things that Floyd is trying to do to him.

Some of what you're hearing is him trying to promote the fight, as he's instructed to do, but don't over think this.

Doesn't matter? HA! So, by your logic, Sergio is crap because Margarito beat him 13 years ago.

I like your point but comparing Guerrero to Martinez is a big stretch. I'm not saying Guerrero is crap either I'm just saying compared to Mayweather he doesn't stand a chance because he is so limited. He so limited that Salido out pointed him. Salido is solid but he's no Floyd.
