    Guerrero's chin is something else so if Thurman gets him out it'd have to happen late, or he may actually accomplish this through body punching.

      A lot of people are picking Guerrero to cause an upset, most of these guys probably won't give Thurman any credit when he wins.

      Guerrero's chin is rock solid, but he's not hard to hit and there's only a certain amount of punishment you can take, regardless of how good chin is. I think Thurman outboxes Guerrero for the first half of the fight and works the body, in the second half he gambles more and gets the KO.

        Thurman won't get the knockout against Guerrero but he will win a UD...

        I think "The Ghost" is underrated, mainly because he was a Mayweather opponent and the general public tends to discredit anyone Floyd fights...Robert is tough and has better skills than he is given credit for...Props to Guerrero for fighting "One Time" as it seems other top welterweights have been reluctant to face Thurman...

        I get the feeling that this fight has the potential to be epic...

            I agree or by cuts. Guerrero is very tough with an excellent chin. As Thurman steps up in competition he's going to find that KO's are not going to come easily.

              I highly doubt he knocks out Guerrero, hes one tough son of a gun, but Ill give him props if he can. I could see Thurman winng but not by knock out, Thurman better expect a tough fight from Guerrero, he ain't coming to lay down.

                Lol... The more Thurman tries to hype himself as a KO artist, the more desperate he looks for marketing purposes. You can't really blame him as he's been kept in the dark for Haymon's other hypes so far, but it's like he's succumbed to trying to sell himself something that he's not. Thurman is going to run for a decision victory, and why not? Guerrero is cement footed.

                  I think Thurman will win but it's not going to be an easy fight or knockout.

                    Guerrero is hyped, because he bet Bertoids and because he fought Floyd.

                    An easy win for Thurman.
