I'm a bit concerned for The Ghost this weekend.

Might well get knocked the **** out.

Nothing bad,

Its just he calls out the big guys constantly.. Now he has to fight one.

Basically put up or shut up

Android Berto will walk to the ring Juiced the Gills and utilize the power of Haitian Chants to mummify Robert in the first round:

That would be some dirty shit right there.

guerrero will probly see what a real ghost look like this weekend.

FloydPatterson · 11-20-2012, 11:26 PM

To be honest, this is a great fight.

m8te · 11-20-2012, 11:32 PM

you should be concerned. guerrero had problems with selcuk aydin, a tough, good fighter. andre berto is not only stronger, bigger and faster than aydin, but he's also simply been through more in the ring. if being in the ring sans steroids does not affect berto adversely, I expect a big, somewhat dominant win for him.

platnumpapi · 11-21-2012, 12:04 AM

it will be good fight, i think berto is more faster, exlosive and stronger. but i think robert will have the better stamina and he will bring his speed since hes a blown up lightweight. i just wonder if the ghost can take those missile like right hands he throws. the ghost aint no push over but i think hes to small for berto and not enough power thats all.

Actually you should be concerned...Berto got beat by a very very medicore southpaw Luis Collazo who is slower and vastly less skilled than the ghost.
Collazo's claim to fame was having one good fight against a blown up ricky hatton in his first fight at welter...and losing every round to sugar shane mosley.

Berto could very well use his steroid strength and power to overwhelm the lightweight but i just dont see it, nevertheless HBO wont let him lose a decision because they need to protect him for a floyd fight.

we'll see

I think Guerrero put himself in a win-win situation. Even if he gets KOed it's a reasonable sacrifice to make in order to receive the biggest payday of his career. He'll be able to take care of his sick wife just fine with that fat paycheck. If he loses this weekend he can move down to 135 to dick Broner into a fight. I think there's still interest in that among real boxing fans.

Interesting take. Both guys have looked like shit at various times. Guerrero's lack of experience in the weight division I think is the biggest wild card.

I agree. He can still maybe make a splash at 140 too
