    :shock::shock:
    EDIT:

    Ok, I now read on the scene that this fight won't be happening. John's advisor says he has no problems making 126 so sees no need to move up. However, he confirms the offer was made by Golden Boy :fire

    Good fight:good

    At this stage I would have to go with John for the UD.

    Quality fight. But I like CJ in this one in a UD. Too much craftsmanship for Guerrero even at the higher weight. Pity there wasn't a chance this being on the Mosley v Berto card.

    I love these suprise matchups that come out of nowhere, I thinks its a terrific fight :good

    Would liked to have seen John against a JuanMa or Gamboa but I'm good with this matchup, injects a bit of quality to SFW as well

    It's not really a great match up. John is good but hasn't shown any signs of being special. Guerrero is pretty average. It's a good match up for their level, which is solid titlists but still escaping that top of the food chain level.

    Fightnews is a load of wank.

    Wankers.

    Hope we see John get Gamboa/JuanMa/Caballero
