    Guzman is one of the most naturally blessed fighters I've seen- think his best years are behind him though.

    It says a lot that a man too lazy to make 130lbs is ''making a point'' by coming in at light welter.

    Im done with the guy, he has made a mockery of the sport with the antics he has pulled over the years.

    130lbs was years ago, he looks pretty suited to Lightweight/Light Welter.

    But I don't rate him. Fast hands, yes, but post-Soto his feet have gone down the pan.

    And Ali Funeka got the better of him :deal

    He would have beat Pacman at 130, Roach is on record saying he didn't want anything to do with that fight

    Emmanuel Steward says he is the single most talented fighter he has ever seen. And hes seen a lot of good fighters. Said it before the Barrios fight.

    Guzman's antics have stained his appeal massively :deal

    After Soto he should of kicked on , and never really did , lets see what he's got @140 , maybe a Soto rematch , i suppose that can be done

    Odds are he'll be up next for Khan :D

    Covered the fight for secondsout and I thought he put his punches together quite well, the finisher was a beauty, feinted a left then banged in the uppercut nicely. No way would he make lightweight but he could offer something of a challenge at LWW for some of the bigger names.

    I can't see anyone going out of there way to face him, He's a dangerous opponent even now and is a real test if in shape but what's point in training hard for weeks to turn up and he can't even weigh in at agreed weight.

    I don't see anyone going near him unless he's a mando.
