    He looked like he could have been a top guy 4 or 5 years ago but looking at his performances as of recent is that of a C class fighter. When you go from being in main events on HBO to ESPN and losing to Robert Hawkins you know its time to retire. It seems like Guinn has a serious confidence problem, you can tell from his pre fight issues this guy doesnt believe he can win.

    He reminds me a lot of Jesse Ferguson. He's got some skills, but he likes to do just enough to stay in the fight till the end and loose the decison.

    That fight was a snooze fest, and the first to were pretty bad as as well. ESPN needs to upgrade the quality of their fights or they risk hurting boxing far more than they ever help it!

    He's done, I have a lot of respect for him because he never quits and just keeps trying but if he can't beat the guys he's losing to now then he's better off out of this.

    He has a good chin too.

    He'll keep fighting, because even at 15,000 a fight, he needs money.

    i don't know what happened but guinn stopped throwing, he will only throw enough to stay in the fight but he's not the same fighter who ko'd michael grant , its like he's afraid to get his so he rarely opens up throwing alot of punches , its almost like he's shell shocked

    "Two Gunz" ruined him, his expression late in the fight was that of a ruined fighter who lost all his confidence
