This could be a real display of levels. Hey shocker Marcus Browne fouls an opponent . Browne hitting him with everything 1st

Figueroa not in the best shape
Didn't think he would completely let himself go during the layoff.
Edit: I stand corrected

It was an exorcism.
That was depressing inside use to be guerroros place I guess he is done. His berto fight was a classic I'll will miss him. All the guys I've followed are old, very depressing
After 1st definitely didn't see him walking through Guerrero like that. Roberts chin just evaporated. Bit weird but totally devastating.
Hey I'm at work i need to keep running in and out is there another fight
Any of you a bit depressed about Guerrero? Don't get me wrong. I love figs and his balls to wall technique so I was happy about that but watching Guerrero get beat so quickly and lose his fight plan so early really bummed it out. Not taking away anything from figs, love the guy, just sad to see the ghost being a ghost of his former self. I don't even think him sticking to his original plan of not going toe toe wouldn't have helped him.
So Guerrero lost and his best days are behind him as a boxer. He must have made some good money particularly against Floyd so should do what Maidana did and retire.
For me it's harder when aguy suddenly doesn't have it. Guerrero has been declining for years. I think with improved health and longevity of careers we sometimes lose sight of how long things happen. He's won 2/7 in 5 years. 5 years is an eternity in boxing. For example I'm not sure SRLs first run before retirement was much more than that.
Edit-first portion of his career was 6 years 10 days. Had 7 fights after that.

I think it's also partly me facing the fact I'm aging as they are
Remarkable turn around after that 1st round as I did not see skinny fat inflated lightweight Figueroa being able to overcome rock solid ripped Guerrero at 147. Masterful inside fighting by the smaller man. Yes, Robert has been slipping, but up until this fight, his chin looked mostly in tact. I've never been so wrong after a 1st round.
I kind of thought the same thing. Guerrero has definitely been slipping the last few years, but he looked by far the stronger fighter in the first round. I was thinking that Guerrero was too big of a step up as a comeback fight and at a weight he has never fought at before. After the first round, I found out that I was completely wrong.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
Guerrero fought a very bad fight and good that he has the sense to call it a day. He kept on running back in to get hit with the same shots again and again and it made absolutely zero sense considering that he won the first round by watching the distance and using some common sense. He won't need any chiropractic adjustments after that fight.
