Robert Guerrero: record, next fight and profile →

Robert "The Ghost" Guerrero was recently on the latest edition of BoxingScene.com's official audio show The Boxing Lab and discussed potential fights he’d like to have this year.

BoxingScene.com's audio show, Boxing Lab Radio, returns with another packed show. The show is hosted by BoxingScene correspondants Ernest Gabion, Luis Sandoval and Ryan Burton.

When Robert "The Ghost" Guerrero (29-1-1, 18KOs) began issuing challenges to WBC welterweight champion Floyd Mayweather Jr., the former multi-division champion was ridiculed by some experts as being inexperienced at the higher weights and not being worthy of a Mayweather opportunity.

Robert Garcia agrees with veteran trainer Kenny Adams - former champion Robert "The Ghost" Guerrero would be a tougher opponent than Saul "Canelo" Alvarez, in terms of styles, for WBC welterweight champion Floyd Mayweather Jr. With no Manny Pacquiao fight in sight, Mayweather is looking for a new challenge on May 5th at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. Alvarez, according to most, is the leading candidate to get the fight. Guerrero, after weeks of campaigning, has been ruled out.

A mega-fight between welterweights Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather Jr. is still nowhere near a done deal for May 5th at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. I went to see world renowned trainer Kenny Adams and he weighed in on who he thought would be a better matchup for Mayweather, between Robert Guerrero and Saul “Canelo” Alvarez, the two boxers who continue challenge Floyd for the May date. Here’s what he had to say.

By Lyle Fitzsimmons - All things considered, I guess I like Robert Guerrero. I’ve never met him, but the one time we chatted via telephone went well enough. His acumen in the ring – 29 wins in 33 fights, world titles in two weight classes – is surely respectable. And his back story outside the ropes inarguably rivals anyone’s past or present. Based on that track record, I’d consider myself interested enough in his next career move. But lately it’s gotten just a little bit ridiculous. No longer content to simply stand and watch a prolonged Pacquiao-Mayweather courtship dance, it seems the generally soft-spoken (at least from my experience) and usually respectful (as far as I was aware) Californian has settled on a loudmouth tough guy approach as a new and improved M.O. So rather than continuing a steady climb toward bigger and more lucrative quarry, he’s gone all-in with bravado these days in an effort to pick up a scrap should the big fight not occur this spring, this fall or not ever. Exhibit A: His recent call out of Mayweather, issued within days of “Money’s” headline-making Twitter lure to Pacquiao – in which the soon-to-be-locked-up welterweight implored the Filipino to “Step up Punk.” Love him or hate him, it was a signature Floyd gesture. And it set the whole sport to buzzing. But instead of leaving a brilliantly belligerent challenge to its originator, Guerrero decided to use the exact same three-word goad in Mayweather’s direction, then compounded the nonsense by claiming he was the chosen one when it came to knocking the five-class champ from the ranks of the unbeaten.

Robert "The Ghost" Guerrero was invited to attend the the 17th Annual Critics' Choice Movie Awards, which VH1 televised. Guerrero joined the red carpet walk with mega-movies stars like Leonardo Dicaprio, George Clooney and Brad Pitt to name a few. Founded in 1995, the BFCA presents its Critics' Choice Movie Awards each year to honor the finest achievements in filmmaking. A portion of the proceeds from the awards presentation ceremony at the Beverly Hills Hotel is donated to Sean Penn's J/P HRO Haitian Relief Organization.

Former champion Robert "The Ghost" Guerrero was surprised to hear that WBC champion Floyd Mayweather Jr. had no idea who he was. Based on the latest events, Mayweather is taking a pass on Guerrero and might be heading to a May 5th clash with undefeated WBC junior middleweight Saul "Canelo" Alvarez.

With Floyd Mayweather’s 90-day jail sentence postponed until June 1, he will go ahead with his planned May 5 fight at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.
