    What are you basing Guerrero being a bigger puncher than Devon at WW off of? Devon has a 53% career KO%, Guerrero has a 56% career KO%. Guerrero has 1 stoppage at 135 and up in his entire career, all of Devon's stoppages have been at 140 and up.

    Maybe, cuz Guererro would have brought the fight to him, rather than trying to box. Still, Khan would have beat him by a wide decision.

    Guerrero would be a very good fight for Khan.

    He has the ability to turn it into a rough pressure fight, which we know Khan can't deal with. More importantly, he comes to fight and won't just roll over and not try like Alexander did.

    I've seen orthodox fighters who were clueless about the basics of fighting southpaws...but it's not every day that you see a southpaw fighter apparently clueless about how to fight an orthodox fighter. Had the look of a thrown fight imo...not that Alexander would have won if he tried, but he certainly wasn't trying.

    Guerrero is not a puncher. Khan would whoop him
