    Guzman has weighed in at 139 3/4lbs for his IBF Carribean WELTERWEIGHT title.

    Talk about going from one extreme (always overweight for weigh-ins) to the other extreme.
    Should be interesting to see how good he still is!

    This guy has to be the disappointment of the decade. He had so much skills, natural ability and a brilliant boxing-ring IQ and he just messed it up for himself.

    If marketed properly, he could have become a megastar.

    Ya course it can. He'll re hydrate and afaik IBF always has a weigh-in the day of the fight and they cant be over 10lbs of the weight classes limit.

    Ya so much skill. Think Floyd May... said that he is the closest boxer to him in terms of skill etc?? Thats massive praise from someone who doesnt really care about other boxers!!!

    His opponent lost to a guy whos 1-15 and his biggest win is over a 7-5 fighter. Thats not to say he cant fight cause ive never seen him, but hes lucky to be fighting for any kind of title. Or maybe hes not if he takes a bad beating.
