    This fight is more like 95/5 fight. I remember how Guerrero lost to Salido and I dont care if Salido was on PEDs or not, he won easily. Floyd will be too fast, too accurate for him. A better question would be: Will Mayweather get a KO win or another vicotry on points. Now thats a 50/50.

    Floyd wants to be on the inside. Being on the outside vs a southpaw he is more vulnerable. Guerrero circling to the right and pivoting out will make it difficult for Floyd to keep him close.

    Hatton tried that
    Gatti tried that
    Mdou tried that
    Baldomir tried that

    People at some point are going to realise that Floyd is actually EXCEPTIONALLY good at fighting on the inside,and can more than handle himsefl when it comes to the rough stuff.

    No he isn't more vulnerable on the outside against a southpaw. Where you get that from? Floyd is great at controlling the range and that right hand lands all day from the outside. RG best bet is to throw while Floyd is throwing and hopefully catch him that way bc that can put Floyd on his ass.

    Don't forget that Floyd will turn into a fire breathing dragon if he gets hurt. LMAO

    anyone that thinks this is a 50/50 fight is a certified ******, but not surprising because of the fan boy mentality. RG has never had a fight at 140 and has 2 at 147. He had average power at super light weight and lightweight.
    this fight had zero interest to the general public and vegas opened the fight at 12 to 1 to generate some money movement. yet he has a 50/50 chance :rofl

    Can't tell if you're kidding? Floyd was damn near close to stopping Shane. Hell, Nazzhim warned Shane several times that he was going to stop the fight if Shane didn't start throwing back.

    Sure, Shane was gassing himself with his jittery style, but those shots he was eating had him on the backpedal from round 6 on. Shane was very clearly hurt by Floyd's shots.

    The fight is now ~ 4 to 1 in favor of Floyd. Those odds changed mightily quickly :shock:

    Ghost's power and chin hasn't been lacking too much at 147 as he convincingly beat an undefeated Aydin and a motivated Berto. Oh, and he dominated Berto. Most of us on ESB (myself included) had Berto stopping Ghost.

    Ghost is the larger fighter and has one loss in his career which he avenged in dominant fashion. How, idiots like you, think this fight will be a one-sided affair is beyond me. I just don't think you understand boxing, or aging for that matter.

    Robert is nowhere near as good as a 154 lbs ODLH.

    ODLH lost.

    If Guerrero uses his brain, he'll realize that every punch he throws will likely lead to a counter.

    Your strategy requires Guerrero to use his balls. Occasionally say "here's my shot, I'm taking it" and trust/hope he can take anything that comes back.

    Thats the only chance robert got on Floyd is to pressure.

    50/50 fight? Oddmakers got Floyd 6.5-1 so they are saying Robert got a 35% chance of winning.

    :deal

    Despite the hype leading up to the fight, Guerrero isn't the puncher in this (and Mayweather isn't the fleet footed one)

    Interesting matchup. I expect Floyd to have his toughest fight since DLH but expect him to win about 8 rounds to 4. Wouldn't be surprised to see Floyd taste the canvas at some point, either.
