Comments Thread For: Schaefer: Robert Guerrero Turned Down Keith Thurman

[The Surgeon]

In fairness to Guerrero, he's coming off a loss where he celebrated finishing the fight. Who comes off a loss and gets in the ring with Keith Thurman?

Exactly.

Shame though as it would be a top fight. Id favour Thurman

Schaefer shouldn't Say anyone turned down an opponent unless he's willing to release the details of the offer. We know sometimes in boxing they purposely low ball fighters so they can set up the match up they really want to make.

This is a good point, would love to know what was offered. This would be very expensive for a fringe PPV that might not do 200k buys. Guerrero just made 3m, and Broner made 1.5m as the challenger, vs 10-1 underdog.

He's a very good and skilled fighter who gave Floyd all he can handle.

"all he can handle"?!

How many rounds won against Floyd, maybe 3?

i thought robert only wants to fight the best

lol

Only if the cameras are rollin' he'll say that, but really, he's only wanting a paycheck.

[royjonesjrKTFO]

Well that sucks. I wonder who Ghost is waiting for.

You kiddin', right? He said so himself, he will work his way back into the Mayweather sweepstakes.

Guerrero knows what's up. Thurman is dangerous, younger, a boxer / puncher, he don't want none. Who is he going to fight next? Bet he's hoping for Josesito Lopez, haha.

Wow I'm very disappointed in Robbert what happened to I'll fight anybody they put in front of me or I'll fight whoever my promoter wants me to fight, well it looks like your promoter wants you to fight Thurman.

Is th as t a joke. He barely won a rd. He gave floyd nothing. That would have been a great fight. I definitely lost a little respect for Guerrero, unless its an issue with the purse.

3 only if every close rd went ti guerero

[JamesEarl]

Floyd knew Guerrero was very easy

The experts knew Guerrero was not in Floyd's league. But a nice payday for Robert and Floyd got to beat on a white looking guy but the fans didn't respond. and Ruebens classless arrogance /ignorance ruined it for Robert. Guerrero career going nowhere but down. Paulie maybe at best.
