    Ghost is technically strong but he didn't trouble Aydin whatsoever (power-wise). The first eye he closed on Berto was mostly a freak accident, the second was the result of punch accumulation. Ghost even acknowledges the freak accident in closing Berto's first eye within 2 rounds (literally punched him directly on/in the eye). That clean of a punch will likely not land on Floyd.

    Cotto was the physically bigger man than Floyd and so was able to muscle him along the ropes, which is why Floyd spent so much time there. Ghost will not have a distinct advantage in strength. Floyd may spend time on the ropes, but it won't be because he's being overpowered.

    Judah/Ortiz possessed the one punch knockout power. Ghost does not have that. The fight will be competitive nonetheless... mostly because Floyd's age and Ghost's volume of punching.

    Guerrero doesnt have to muscle Floyd like Cotto did. Or mug him like he did Berto. Floyd will be right in front of him all night, pressing the attack. This will be a chess match, very technical. Guerrero will show different styles, mostly box while making sure to throw in at least 4s and 5s with his combos when he attacks. Guerrero wont make it an inside fight unless Floyd starts to completely shut him out, which i dont think he will. Guerrero has heavier hands than Floyd and is faster than Cotto was at 154. Speed and power wont be a problem.

    Who has Guerrero K.O.'d at 147. Don't worry, I'll wait. Guerrero don't even have as heavy hands as Marquez. At least Marquez got Katsidis outta there.

    What you just stated has no logic. Just a bunch of words thrown together to sound like they carry weight but in reality you'er just contradicting yourself by saying that 12 is not a dozen. Floyd got twelve and BHop got a dozen, same thang.:bbb

    Guerrero isn't washed up like Cotto and has a much better chin. He has no respect for Mayweather and his skills. RG has come a long way. People act like Berto works at the carwash when Berto was a clear favorite against him and RG gave him the worst beating of his career. I don't think even Floyd would of demolished Berto like that. If RG's chin holds up Floyd will be in serious trouble.

    Guerrero will be schooled severely.

    The onus isn't on me to prove Floyd hits harder at 147. The burden is on you to prove that Guerrero actually has heavier hands than Floyd, since you were bold enough to make that declaration. And seeing as how Guerrero has knocked NO ONE out at 147, you have absolutely no proof.

    Sometimes you're stupidity clouds your judgement. :patsch

    The shoulder roll isn't all reflex-based but he has a point. BHop has tricks that allowed him to stick around longer that I don't think Floyd employs.

    Mays jail stint may be quite a factor.
