Should Guerrero Try & Outbox Mayweather?

Dipset · 02-24-2013, 12:22 PM

The Ghost is an accomplished boxer that has switched up stylistically brawling & being very aggressive now. However not many fighters have tried to box Floyd...many believe he can't be out-boxed by the current crop of fighters.

Could this be the best option for Guerrero to Win?
His taller, a south paw, has a good jab; decent footwork & a decent boxing IQ.

Thoughts please brothers

Hell no. He better try to outfight him.

I don't think he can outfight or outbox Floyd.
The only thing he can try to do is maybe flurry and try to make Floyd the aggressor so he can try to counter punch him.

Mayweather has a longer reach. Wouldn't be smart to try and simply outbox him at distance.

Needs to stay on the inside. Fight him like he fought Berto. Give him no room. Much better chance that way than outboxing him.

Outbox Mayweather? NO one in the history of the sport can outbox Mayweather.

Hell no! He should simply outbrawl him.

The Ghost can outfight Floyd. Quite a few fighters have outfought him early in fight only to tire late. If the Ghost pushes the pace, Floyd is in for a rough night.

thats what he needs to do but floyd will stop him late, if he try to outbox him it be a boring shut out to mayweather

Move away from Floyd's jab and force him to reach. Ambush him when he does with flurries and reset.

No he can't. We saw Castillo and Ortiz superior infighters and physically fail at the same thing. Floyd would destroy Robert on the inside as well and the counters between his shots would see him KO'd faster than staying on the outside trying to box.

Guerrero trying to outbox Floyd would be like Khan trying to go toe-to-toe with Matthyse.

Zopilote · 02-24-2013, 01:35 PM

Guerrero would get outboxed and outfought.

He is simply many levels below Floyd.
