re: Mayweather vs Guerrero Official Thread

IMO Floyd will never fight Canelo because Golden Boy won't want their Future Cash Cow to get embrassed on that huge stage by Floyd. Same reason why Bob Arum didnt let Pac fight Floyd. Speaking of Manny, that fight should still get made. Manny coming off a string of loses should be more inclined to take 35% or 40% of the revenue.

Better fight than I expected. Through the first two rounds, I was happy (and very surprised) to see how aggressive Mayweather was; too bad it didn't last. . . I expected May to spend this fight on the defensive. After the second round, that's exactly what he did. It may not be the most exciting style, but it's certainly dominant when he does it.
Overall, definitely an entertaining fight. Guerrero gave his all, and Mayweather did enough to make it less-than-boring. I scored the fight the same as all three judges: 117-111.

The judges horribly blew the Bradley fight, and he just got caught by a massive shot by Marquez (in a fight he was otherwise winning IMO).
Speaking of Manny, that fight should still get made.
A month ago, I said to myself that there were only three fighters in the world who would even have a chance against Mayweather - Pacquiao, Martinez, and Alvarez, in that order. After watching Sergio's fight, though, I'd have to take him off that list. And between Pacquiao and Alvarez, I'd say Pacquiao would definitely have the better chance of beating Mayweather. [Obviously, Mayweather would be the favorite over both of those guys. I'm just saying they'd have a chance.]

i cant figure out if any of you actually watch this sport outside of the ppv fights
Khan has lost to a bunch of middle of the road fighters lately

After that, Bradley could be top choice...especially if he beats Marquez in a few months.
And Bradley-Mayweather would make for the most boring fight in history.

There is no way Money May would give him 35-40% now.

Bernard Hopkins summed up this fight before it ever happened
About The Guerrero: "He's a plumber, going to do an electricians work."

Im sorry you feel garcia and peterson are upper tier fighters. Garcia is young and has a ways to go until he is on a mayweathers level.
Peterson doesnt belong in the conversation.
We are in conversation about worthy opponents for mayweather in this and when you bring up khan as an opponent and look at his last two losses to garcia and peterson its not hard to see. Neither of these guys are near the elite level of fighter that mayweather is. It will be a money fight only and a tune up.
Mayweather would beat garcia easily as guererro and also peterson.
The only fight i think mayweather stood a legit chance of getting beat was Martinez at 154 and even that looks like a thing of the past as sergio haa faded and mayweather looks good as ever

Are you serious with this comment? Mayweather looked great in the middle to later rounds and the only rounds he did any "running" was the twelth. He stayed much more aggressive and had robert hurt in the eighth i believe.

Meh after the 7th it was boring as hell. Mayweather just jumping around and showboating later

Money's hand speed was way too much for Guerrero to handle. He was popping him hard with that right whenever he wanted.
Eta: if money hasn't hurt his hand he probably would have knocked him out.

Talking about Guerrero himself, not his thug POS dad
The son is just as bad as his dad. He never objected to any of his antics and in fact, took part in some of them. See that preflight press conference. When Floyd Sr went to confront Ruben, Robert was right there beside his dad talking shite to Floyd Sr.

I think Ruben G. blurred the lines between promoting the fight and reality. He started to believe a lot of what he was saying, and it just built on itself.
Posted on 5/5/13 at 10:45 am to Patrick_Bateman
Ruben's post fight antics just confirmed how much of a piece of shite he really is.
And at no point did Robert ever tell him to bring it down a notch or to chill out.
Floyd is suppose to be the thug, but he was the one who was telling his dad those things.

Well that was an expensive fricking fight for me. Mayweather controlled the fight pretty much from the start. I hope they set up the pac fight, someone last night at the fight was saying if it does happen it could potentially be in Macau which would be awesome. I will definitely be there either way.
