    Risk-reward factor. Why take a challenging awkward stylist when you can take and average Guerrero who isn't better in any department? Would you do a harder job for the same money?

    Yup. It's not an exciting fight. Guerrero won't win. The odds will be way in PBF's favor. It actually doesn't make any sense. Why not fight Trout, after he just beat Cotto? Even though I think Cotto was better suited to welterweight than junior middleweight, beating Cotto at MSG is more impressive than beating Berto. Not to mention, Trout looks like a tougher fight. Hopefully, there won't be too much interest in this fight and I can get tickets on the cheap.

    Mayweather-Trout would be a truly terrible fight. I don't think the styles would mesh and as a result I don't think it'd sell that well. At least Guerrero would opt to press the fight and try and mall Floyd.

    From what I've read, he's taking on Guerrero on Cinco De Mayo as he will bring a decent Mexican fan base. Canelo will be on the undercard, likely against Cotto, and the plan is to set up Mayweather-Canelo in Septmeber on a Mexican holiday weekend. So from a selling point of view, it makes perfect sense.
