        Hopefully Guerrero exposes Thurman. Pretty sure he will.

          Guerrero is a decent guy, credit to him for taking this fight.

          If he fights smart and boxes, he could make it a competitive fight, if he's careless and too aggressive, I see him getting badly hurt and probably stopped in this fight. He needs to be more cautious than usual, Thurman is by far the biggest puncher he's fought.

              I dunno, Robert sounded ore confident against Mayweather. Is he giving too much respect to Thurman's punching power now that he saw that Thurmancan actually box. Ruben isn't giving Thurman any love and Robert may pay for it. Still Robert seems like a pretty good guy. Guess he needed a big fight to try to stay in the game.

                I see alotta back & forth early in this one...

                Both guys will look to establish themselves & won't shy away from trading punches...I think someone hurts the other, basically setting the tone for the rest of the fight...

                If Keith gets hurt early he could be in for a long night....Guerrero is pretty persistent once he senses he can hurt his opponent....He'll throw tons of punches Thurmans way & could overwhelm him....However Keith has shown that if need be he can box effectively for 12rds & I could certainly see him winnin that way....

                Conversely, if Guerrero is hurt early I think it throws a wrench in his whole plan....I thought Floyd stunned Guerrero early in their fight & it caused him to become less aggressive allowing Mayweather to control the distance & ultimately the tempo ...Guerrero can box but that's not his forte...Robert lacks the speed & athleticism to beat Keith fighting from outside....He will need to force Thurman back & hurt him at some point IMO....

                Thurman wins hard fought UD....

                  Let's have an avi bet

                  However long you want

                  I'll give you 10 to 1 odds

                  So 1 week vs 10 weeks for example

                  I got thurman

                    Cash out fight for Guerrero

                    He has no chance to win

                    Looked shot in his last fight

                    Lack of speed. No athleticism . Lack of reflexes.
