    Thanks for sharing, that was one impressive vid compilation of a boxer whose status nowadays is relegated to a footnote. I wonder if the sad predicament has more to do with consequences beyond his control, or a lack of dedication due to unprofessionalism. Either way, with skills as such on display, here's hoping that he gets a second chance. Anyone deserves one, there is no reason he shouldn't.

    I wonder what happened? He was right there with the big names and then poof! gone in a blink of an eye.

    At his age, he does not have many more chances to get back to the pink of things, so he better not waste at any of the chances coming his way.

    I can imagine a lot of people wanting to see more of him with suspended disappointment. It is suspended, as fans of boxers with these skills are
    understandably eternally forgiving and are to a fault, hopeful optimists. , Nothing wrong with that, for these are but, genuine attributes of a fan!

    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    I still say its Bernard Hopkins, he gets hit about the same against way higher levels of competition.

    But Hopkins constantly holds.. and is ugly to watch

    You don't have to know about boxing to appreciate the magnitude of skill Guzman displays.. not just defensively either.

    That doesn't make Hopkins not a better fighter, which he clearly is. Ugly style or not he is far better than Guzman will ever be, even if he isn't as impressive, thats the whole appeal to Hopkins. I would also argue that Calderon is at least as good of a defensive fighter.

    Guzman is maybe the P4P most talented fighter in boxing right now. I am a huge fan I hope he comes back,.

    It's certainly been mentioned for the IBF. Shame really because Romanov is another fighter that should have done better things by now. If it happens Guzman will have a field day.

    Guzman spent years blaming promoters for his career not going anywhere then doesn't make the weight for the biggest fight of his career and a chance to make some big fights and a lot of money before he starts to go downhill. Hopefully he gets a belt and then finally faces meaningful opposition.
