Ruben Guerrero, father and trainer of former multi-division champion Robert "The Ghost" Guerrero (32-2-1, 18KOs), believes his son will overwhelm WBA interim-welterweight champion Keith "One Time" Thurman (24-0, 21KOs) in the main event of Al Haymon's debut edition of 'Premier Boxing Champions' on NBC.

The fight is taking place on March 7th from the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.

"We just got back from ‎New York. At the press conference everything went great. We are really excited to be fighting this one on NBC and it's gonna be great for boxing," Ruben stated to BoxingScene.com.

Thurman has a deadly reputation in the welterweight division. But, Ruben is less than impressed. Ruben was very disappointed with Thurman's decision win over Leonard Bundu last month in Las Vegas.

"You know man, Robert fights anyone...look at his record. This is the fight we wanted and the fight that our team delivered. He is very excited. Robert is gonna take this kid into deep waters. ‎We can't wait. We are gonna show this guy what a real Mexican warrior is all about. He better be ready," Ruben said. 

"Let me tell you something, I've only seen him a few times but he should change his name to 'Run Time' and stop calling himself 'One Time' - because that Vato was running for his life [with Bundu]. The crowd was booing. People pay good money to go to fights to see chingasos and that's what he's gonna find out prime time live on NBC baby, March 7."

Guerrero's co-manager, Bob Santos, added: "I kept hearing so much hype about this guy. At the weigh-in [for Bundu], Thurman was on stage and told the entire world that he would be the man to knock Floyd Mayweather out. So I watched his fight the following morning only to see Thurman running all over the ring from this guy. Bundu is a good fighter but Robert is a world class fighter. The Thurman's hype is going to end on March 7th."
