Robert Guerrero has a very underrated chin.
The White Rhino has a hard head, I think he would be the first to admit that he lacks skill but has a homer Simpson style cranium
Never forgive him for his lame effort against Floyd. He talked a good game but fought like a wimp. He should have jumped on him as he did with Berto to try and win that fight.Quote:

Agree, just thinking that Guerrero's chin gets a little underrated in these types of topics. Thought I'd show 'The Ghost' some love.Quote:

We all have soft spots for our fights, Batman has the new white rhino, I like Sam Eggington.Quote:

I was never much of a Guerrero fan, he had a nice run there after the Salido fight up until Floyd. I just think his chin was very durable and doesn't really get mentioned a lot in these modern discussions.Quote:

Ray Mercer does an interview in this weeks boxing news and he was one durable fighter. He says the shots he took from Tommy Morrison was insane after seeing them in his fight but during the fight they were nothing compared to Lennox's blows.
For all you posters who seem to believe boxing started in 1980, look up these guys and their records of being stopped or knocked down.
- Carmen Basilio. ...
- Jake LaMotta. ...
- Kid Gavilan. ...
- Oliver McCall ...
- George Chuvalo. ...
- Pancho Villa ...
- Panama Al Brown .....
- Rocky Marciano. ...
- Harry Greb.
- Marvelous Marvin Hagler
Ill admit to being the only one who thought he did half way decent v Mayweather ;D, all things considered we knew he was in over his head but he actually took a few rounds off him.Quote:

Always liked him even more so late in career. Early heck as bit of a billy goat and massaged some rules lets say but fought all comers. He also goes in the category of guys who didn't tip toe around going up two divisions. No bs catch weights or such, he just jumped over 140 and grabbed a trinket that got him the lottery. When his chin finally cracked it cracked badly in the end.
Yea he was totally shot by the Figueroa fight.Quote:
