    Robert Guerrero or Canelo, who did better against Floyd Mayweather?

    When you look back at Floyd Mayweather and his fights with Robert Guerrero and Canelo, who do you think did better?

    I had Robert winning a few rounds and had Canelo maybe winning one if that. Robert gave Floyd more problems in my opinion.

      Canelo got discouraged earlier than Guerrero.

        Obviously Canelo, but who cares neither was at their best weight.

            Marquez was old fat and most importantly hadn't started on the Heredia juice.

              Guerrero was getting stopped had the hand injury not happened.

              The 8th round was a mauling and Guerrero was folding with every right hand to the gut, he would have been out of there in 10 without the hand problems. Cannelo didn't have much success, but he did better.

                Heredia Juice? LOL thats nice that your only comeback is accusations that don't have one shred of proof. No need to talk to you any further it would be like arguing with an some autistic rubber head.

                  I thought Guerrero won maybe 2 of the first 3 rounds (I don't remember which rounds exactly) and Canelo won rounds 2 and 4. Mayweather made a victory lap in the last round of both fights so he technically gave away the last round in both fights. Both fights probably went 117-111, but Canelo naturally had more pop on his punches so he get's the edge.

                  I thought Canelo tried to implement the Cotto 'blueprint' but it didn't work quite as well for him because he just didn't have the same skillset or experience to implement the same game plan. Canelo did have some success with the power jab in the first 4 rounds and with 1-2 combinations in the last few rounds (he hardly threw the 1-2 though). He also should have kept his guard high the same way Cotto did, but for some reason he didn't.

                  Based on Mayweather's fights against Cotto and Canelo it may seem that one of the best approaches against Mayweather is to keep a high guard (for 3 minutes of every round) throw straight punches. Lead with the jab, pick your punches carefully and throw the occasional 1-2 ). Mayweather likes to throw the counter right hand when fighters make the transition from the right hand to the left (takes longer than left to right) so outside of the 1-2 combinations are detrimental. Throw straight punches and pick them carefully if and when you get on the ropes. When you throw the right hand move away and circle to the right to avoid his right hand when he tries to counter.

                    What the *** are you talking about Floyd hasn't thrown a punch with anything behind it in years, Hasn't really knocked anyone out since Hatton and even that was Hatton walking into a punch like an idiot.
