Joan Guzman: Biggest waste of talent?

Well at one point he was 21-0 with 17 KOs against damn near all bums. One, maybe two of the stoppages were against a name guy.

 

and his scowl looked like Tyson

 

Either Salvador Sanchez or Edwin Valero are the biggest waste of talent.

Freddie Roach admitted at the time he told Pac to not fight him Guzman was a star!

 

Shut up or he'll force a Big Mac down your throat.

 

Alex Arthur was always meant to face him, a blessing he didn't, Guzman would have been too much for him.

 

The kid was a super bantamweight the last and only time I have seen him fight, the fact that in his last fight he was 165lbs speaks volumes about his lack of discipline. He should never have fought past 135lbs, waste of talent.

 

He didn't have any power...he was a machine gun slapper. He lost to Ali Funeka who retired prematurely. Guzman would have never been champion when he moved up in weight, which is what he was TRYING NOT TO DO, thats why he kept weighing over at small weights.

 

i think AB goes down the same road as guzman waste of talent. World at his feet an head gets to big, fails weight an shows lack of respect.

 

Funeka isn't retired.

 

Guzman is a bit like Gamboa good fighter but too small to make a dent in the higher weights. That's how I saw his career anyway but he should retire now.

 

Not sure about that. Broner is still young. He should still be at 135 though. Him moving to welter and getting roughed up by Maidana was a reality check. He still has time to right his ship.

 

The problem with his hand was that it was always putting food in his mouth. Very talented. Such a shame.
