Would Robert Guerrero be a tougher fight for Pacquiao than Rios?

[HeroBando]

Rios is huge, he came in at 160 against Alvarado in the second fight. 147 wouldn't be a problem

@ Robert Guerrero

Exactly, Rios was 160 at 140, vs Alvarado who was 159. Meanwhile Guerrero was getting hammered by 40 punch/round 151lb Aydin, with 64 inch reach. Gamboa has 64 inch reach, and he's stubby at feather.

Guerrero would be ten times the fight that Rios will be

[Kagami Taiga]

True, which doesn't mean he's a worse welter than Karass. I'm 100% sure he's much better than Aydin whom he'd run out of the ring, like Aydin almost did to Guerrero

oh please. i dunno who hes better than, hes unproven really since 135

Who Guerrero? True, now that we are seeing that Berto is losing and losing, his most notable fights were at featherweight and/or close to there.

Guerrero is an OK fighter but still unproven at WW. Only for Floyd fans is it enough to beat Berto even though in non-Floyd threads, the same posters consider Berto garbage .... "cough, cough"

[Rome-By-Ko]

I don't think so,Rios has power and is an all out fighter..Guerrero is not that kinda fighter,he is a boxer with a brawlers mentality..He would be moving off the backfoot by the 3rd rd and getting the hell beat out of him in the process..While Rios might get the hell beat outta him also,he's not going to stop unless Pac stops him,the ref stops him,or the bell stops him..I'd rather see Pac Rios..He can also test that chin a hella of a lot more then Guerrero as well..

[LoadedWraps]

Robert Guerrero at-lest has one fight at 147.
Has a good chin as-well.
Actually 10 times the better boxer than Brandon Rios.
Has descent power.
Better footwork.
And actually quicker than Rios.

Stylistically do you believe that Rios is better opponent?

No. Not even close. Rios is so underrated here it's beyond ridiculous. After the war they will have, all of these people who talk like they've never seen Rios fight until the last Alvarado fight will look and feel pretty ******.

[Pacdbest]

Guerrero was just Pac's former sparring partner!

[boliodogs]

I think Rios would have a better chance to beat Pacquiao than Guerrero but I don't think either one has much of a chance. Guerrero's big wins at welterweight have been recently duplicated by a guy that is not that good. Guerrero is sort of a one handed fighter and his right hook has little power.I think Rios has more two handed power and a better chin and work rate than Guerrero.

[SUCIO416]

i think it depends what you mean by tough

[Bushidō]

I couldn't decide but Guerrero has a bigger frame
