I didn't see people giving Floyd Mayweather Jr, this much slack over his weight. Against a much smaller JMM, atleast Joan Guzman was against a guy who physically. Beats him in every department.
Where as Floyd Mayweather Jr, had all the advantages over JMM. And i think it was more to do with a better gameplan rather than the weight. I am not saying it is right about the weight, but it's been happening quite alot recently.
Especially in the other fight i just mentioned, and Joan Guzman should still get credit for getting back in the ring, with a guy who is a freak of nature being 6'0 Lightweight, and winning pretty convincing, and i hope to see Joan Guzman in the future.
He has better reaction time than Funeka we knew that in the first fight. It wasn't until his nose busted up and he had a hard time breathing that he slowed down. Guzman didn't really do anything beyond what he was expected to do in the first fight. Add to that his punch output IMO was lower than it should have been. The knockdown was a good punch and he shutdown Funeka, but there was a lot of room for him to capitalize where he didn't and instead chose to taunt and pose.
For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.
