    I dont even like guerrero but in his defense, it's hard to get up for a 300k fight when he got payed over 3 million in his last bout. Fighters' standards go up once they win the floyd lotto and nobody can blame them.

    Thurman represents high risk/low reward so guererrois making a wise business decision. He aint scared thats for sure.

    1. Ghost is scared!!! After losing like he did, he can't help but think about the possiblity os losing again. And he know One Time is the right person to do it.
    2. Thurman is not the path to another big payday right now. Thurman needs more fights and to headline.
    3.the Ghost want to fight Victor Ortiz or Berto.
    4. Smart money would be to fight Kell Brook in order to get another title shot sooner then later.

    I don't know why people get surprised when big name fighters (especially a guy just coming off the biggest payday of his career vs Mayweather) don't want to take high risk/low reward fights.

    If I told you I'd give you A) $20,000 to jog 5 miles through Danbury, Connecticut, or B) $14,000 to jog 10 miles through the worst slums of Brooklyn, which option would you choose?

    Unfortunately for Thurman, the risk involved in fighting him far outweights the small rewards you'd get for fighting and beating him.

    Guerrero can bank into a better match, especially if a Floyd whips Alvarez, right now. Even in a lesser build up fight where he can establish. Thurman has only now just opened the door in a showcase fight and frankly Guerrero can do better at this point in time I would think. Guerrero had cancer ravage his wife among other things, pretty sure all his scared is used up.

    After Guerrero inept performance he needs to earn the right to get the big fights. He was poor and I hate him for it because I bought into his hype and promise of a war.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Man, it's boxing! I have been hooked so many times I feel like a fish. Besides, Floyd talks so much trash these guys have to have to respond or look like idiots when Floyd buries them under a mountain of trash talk.

    Guererro might be getting a case of Bradleyitis. He needs to fight who his promoter wants him to fight and not start turning guys down because he's waiting for impossible fights like Marquez or a Floyd rematch. GBP have a bunch of welters and they're all fighting each other and producing great fights so he just needs to get on with it. Go and beat Thurman and earn your way into another big fight.
