    He needs to fight him like he did Berto. Crowd him. Smother him. Hold and hit him. He needs to make it dirty. I think Guerrero has a point when he says Mayweather is losing his legs. There's truth to that. Factor in the incarceration/inactivity and it's unrealistic to think Mayweather is gonna have an easy time with Guerrero
    Guerrero is not going to be allowed to fight Floyd the way he did Berto.

    Exactly. I'm amazed they didn't dig Joe "Break, don't punch don't punch" Cortez up for this fight.

    He doesn't have a choice. It's the only chance he has. Make it dirty. If he gets DQ than so be it. A DQ loss definitely won't hurt him

    Can Guerrero beat Floyd? Sure. It’s professional boxing… anything can happen. Father Time could suddenly rise up and drop a brick on Floyd’s head, making him old overnight. Floyd could also get injured in mid-fight.

    Will Guerrero beat Floyd? Highly unlikely. For a number of reasons. Number one… you think Mayweather has spent all these years carefully cultivating that “0”, only to give it up now? Against Robert fucking Guerrero? No disrespect to the young warrior, but Floyd has fought a "Who’s Who" of fighters over the years and has emerged victorious. Some say he’s ducked some opponents… others say he’s too inactive. Both may be right. But one thing for sure is that Floyd Mayweather is one smart, savvy boxer. He hasn’t come all this way undefeated only to fall to someone to whom he’s at least an 8/1 favorite.

    Second… Guerrero is barely into his 3rd fight ever as a welterweight. Floyd has been campaigning there for quite some time, and has even fought at light middle. Size advantage: Floyd. Third… Floyd knows he’s not facing a big puncher. Guerrero has only 18 knockouts in his 31 wins, and his last TKO win was in his first fight as a lightweight, coming from even further down the size ladder than that. And it was 3 years ago, against Roberto Arrieta. So one less thing to worry about for Floyd.

    Fourth… Floyd may be older, but he’s definitely not shop-worn. The only blood drawn from Floyd in recent years came in his fight against Cotto. Well…. that’s if you discount the headbutt given to him by dumb fuck Victor Ortiz.

    Will Floyd retire undefeated? Maybe. We all know he loves the idea. He’s driven by it… and he always trains hard for his fights. But even Floyd, if he keeps fighting long enough… could conceivably lose. IMO, he’s going to try and push the envelope just a little bit, trying to guess when that exact “right time” is.
