    37-16 Guerrero? I realise that Boxrec doesn't begin to tell the full tale, but that kind of record is usually indicative of a below average operator. Who is Guerrero? Would he beat the likes of MAB and Morales as well? When does it end? I'll watch the footage El, but I have footage of MAB looking picture perfect against sub-par opposition too. I wouldn't ever produce it here as an indication for how he'd do against much better opposition like Saldivar though.

    Probably true since my opinion isn´t controversial at all. :thumbsup

    Yes, Guerrero would knock out MAB, Morales, and Marquez all in the same night, with one hand tied behind his back. Now watch the footage.

    No, that was honestly me just continuing to be baffled at anyone calling Winstone slow. Watch his fight with Baby Luis (Saldivar's first conquerer) if you want to see him out-box a high level operator .

    Bobby Chacon would beat Floyd Mayweather Jr at SFW

    Pernell Whitaker has a very thin resume for a great fighter.....

    Roy Jones Jr is underrated sometimes, he would beat many MW (and SMW) greats in a head to head fight.....

    Hatton wasn´t that bad.....

    Yeah, Winstone certainly looks useful in that footage. Great jab, and saying he was slow seems harsh in retrospect. That being said, Guerrero was literally offering no resistance at all. An absolute far cry of an opponent compared to someone like MAB.

    Turn his robberies into what they should be and he has easily the best resume of the last 20 years.

    So as long as you don't consider the Hoya decision a robbery. Maybe.

    I believe Guerrero was at one point a formidable contender in the division, but I'll admit that point seems to have been long since past by the time Winstone made him out to look a ******ed ******.

    I'm not saying Winstone does something like that to Pacquiao, and went overboard obviously in some of my statements, I just believe that given his stylistic edge (or what I perceive to be) and technical craftsmanship (perfection, more like) he'd have had the number of a young Pacquiao. Could be wrong.

    Fair enough, El. I'm man enough to admit that footage clearly shows Winstone to have at least good hand speed. It was kind of a throwaway comment.
