    Well who wins? Guerrero made no secret about who he wants to fight next, but realistically I don't see that happening anytime soon unless Mayweather wants a tune up with a southpaw before possibly facing Pacquiao, but what about Broner at 140, who wins and why?

    Health would come first for Broner.

    Let's see how Broner copes at 135 first.All well and good slating the guy,but let's not put him in fights at weights that he's never fought at.We can't know how he'll do at 140 when we've still not seen how he copes against a genuine live opponent at 135.

    I hear you but Guerrero's resume is less than stellar also, and this past weekend proves that he's probably better suited for 140 as he jumped up two divisions from 135. Do you really see him being competitive at 147? Do you think he could beat the likes of Ortiz, Berto or even Alexander? I put him in the class of Malinaggi. Meanwhile Broner fought his last fight, weighing in at 147 on fight night, although he will be fighting at 135. The Ghost was disappearing fast in the middle to late rounds.

    Broner would finish what Salido and Yourdan started.

    No mate,you're right on the button.He's not and never will be a welter,but I reckon he's crippled by Casey's medical bills and GBP knows there's a great story there.A Floyd fight is the only way he'll come out of the game on top and I expect there's already a deal in place.
    I like and respect Guerrero and have no problem with him getting out of the hole he's probably in,but he's never going to be a top welter so I can't help but be cynical,albeit in an understanding way.
    140 would have been a perfect division for him,but I'd just like to see Broner perform against a quality opponent,even at 135 before I predict a fight like this.I'm guessing Floyd is the only fight that will put Guerrero in the black.
    Not trying to shoot down your thread mate,just think it's slightly premature.
    Only my opinion though.

    Guerrero's the better fighter but unless that Romanian he just fought has a titanium chin, he doesn't seem to have carried his power to 147 with him, so I'm picking Broner.

    Double KO would be the sweetest outcome.
