    Guerrero is a 3 division champion. He's not a fighter without skills or credentials. Like I said he's not the first option I prefer. Or even the 2nd. But I don't see any else being that much of a better option. Guerrero is trying to prove himself against the fighter in the sport today. And he's being bad mouthed for it. Un fucking believable

    it's not a knock on Guerrero it would be more of a knock on Mayweather, there are tougher challenges at 147 and 154 than Guerrero, Robert needs to take on someone with a pulse at at 135 or 140, the biggest win he's had of late is Katsidis the same Katsidis that Burns just beat, I say Guerrero should fight someone like Rios, Demarco, or even Gamboa at 135 or fight Bradley, Peterson, Khan, or any other top 140 lber, Mayweather has plenty of options to pick from he has Canelo, Kirkland, Cotto, Martinez (even though he's scheduled to fight next month), Alexander, etc.

    Guerrero is a solid fighter with a game but he brings absolutely natas to offend or trouble Mayweather at given weight and respected points in career. Floyd had his gimme, and that was a guy who could feign 154. Floyd needs to insist on better IF this is a consideration and stop playing the fans for suckers.

    This is a horrible fight and I would have almost no interest in watching it if it gets made.

    If mayweather loses half his fans for this bull shit fight I won't be surprised. I honestly will be one of them.

    Guerrero and Alvarez aren't ready for Mayweather if they ever will be. Ortiz wasn't close to ready for Mayweather and he at least has one legit win over a top ranked boxer at 147. Neither Guerrero or Alvarez has one win over a top guy at that weight class. Would Guerrero even beat Ortiz or Berto? I don't believe so. Would Guerrero even beat Bradley? I don't think so. Guerrero is lucky if he gets this pay day and more power to him for taking on a challenge, maybe its not his fault, but he doesn't deserve it.

    Sergio Martinez at 154 is the fight to be made if it is not Manny Pacquiao. Hell, frankly, I see Sergio Martinez versus Floyd Mayweather at 154 more competitive than Manny Pacquiao versus Floyd Mayweather at 147. The other fights that would make sense are the Ortiz/Berto II winner or Miguel Cotto.

    Alvarez is 22. He's been champion for less than a year. He should clean up the junior middleweight division and learn his craft first before facing someone like Floyd. Not that I'd put him down for not taking the chance for 7 figures, of course.

    BUT he's a lightweight Bilbo. I know Floyd will want a bigger challenge than this..The only time has done this was against Marquez and he's an exception because he is proven awesome. Plus it was a return from a lay-off. Floyd will go Canelo over Guererro..watch.

    Canelo makes much more commercial sense it is true. Easy fight to hype, unlike Guerero who is virtually unknown in casual circles. I think Guerero is the harder fight though.

    this fight IMO is just as bad and just as disappointing as Mosley/Pacquiao and Pacquiao/Clottey

    My question is who can Floyd fight? Martinez is fighting in March and won't be ready for may, especially to make that fight big enough. If Arum won't let Cotto or Pacquiao face Floyd, then I don't see better options than Geurrero or Alvarez. I mean there are equally good opportunities out there, but not better ones. I mean Arum has Marquez, Bradley, Pacquiao, and Cotto all around his finger, and Amir Khan just lost a close fight, and he deserves less than Guerrero to go up against Mayweather.

    Not that the result would be in doubt, but Cotto is a free agent now. That's a better fight than Canelo or Guerrero. Martinez would gladly pay Macklin a step aside fee for the chance to face Floyd. I guarantee that. I'm not even sure the Macklin/Martinez fight has been actually signed due to the confusion surrounding the title situation and the WBC.

    I agree with VD. I'm really surprised this fight has been made. Guerrero has very little name outside the hardcore but he's probably a far tougher opponent than virtually anyone else out there for Floyd.

    I've said many times that I thought Guerrero could be the best of the lightweights, and maybe have the beating of guys like Marquez, Rios, Khan and Bradley.

    Floyd is too soon but if he comes to the fight not fully prepared and expecting an easy night I'd give Guerrero a far better shot than most of sticking to a gameplan and frustrating Floy.

    I reckon he loses a surprisingly competitive 12 rounder where Floyd looks the worst he has looked since Castillo, gets called out by Max or Larry and storms off without giving an interview.

    Guerrero is a top p4p guy just waiting for his opportunity imo.

    Guerrero has a little bit less than no chance of winning even a round against floyd. Heck im not even sure if i'd pick him to beat ortiz or berto either for that matter
