Comments Thread For: Roy Jones: Guerrero Needs To Make it Ugly To Beat Floyd

[v.cassiusali@ya]

chicken floyd will use his elbow and his hugging/holding techniques to frustrate guerrero...i hope guerrero is ready with his own too...use his elbow or low blows to frustrate chicken floyd... that's the blueprint to beat chicken floyd...

I don't get why everyone keeps saying guerrero is small... he looked bigger than cotto did against mayweather in the yesterdays episode of all access.

My thoughts exactly...... He looks way bigger than Floyd...PEOPLE ARE GOING TO BE SURPRISED.

Floyd ALWAYS wears a hat to make himself look taller when standing in front of Guerrero. Guerrero easily has 2 inches on Floyd in height and he is just physically bigger period.

All Guerrero has to do is establish the jab and most importantly CUT THE RING OFF. Cotto did this beautifully. When he's got Floyd on the ropes then apply pressure.

I heard Roy's voice in my head when I read that.

You jab with Floyd and move away from the counter right and keep your right hand up to block the left hook. I have seen Guerrero practicing this combination a lot in videos: jab, straight left, right hook to the body. Floyd will roll with the straight left leaving his left oblique exposed to the right hook of Guerrero. Once Floyd stops shoulder rolling so much due to fear of the right hook to the body, the Ghost will start focusing on the straight left.

This won't be an easy fight for Floyd.

To me the key has always been the jab. If you can establish a good strong jab against Floyd it takes away a lot of his counter punching ability. DLH and Cotto both showed us that.

Great comment.

Guerrero needs to use the jab and throw combos. Even if they aren't landing, just using that jab and staying active to make the judges see it his way. His chances of legitimately winning 7 rounds is low, he needs to fool the people scoring.

Yep. DLH had the most success in their fight when he utilized his jab. Floyd is good at frustrating his opponents to the point where they abandon the jab and go for broke in desperation.

Ugly fights favour the home fighter...
