    Seems like Thurman is a big favorite at the moment. Not sure I agree with that 100%...

    Right now Guerrero is a 5.25 dog


    I'd take that over the 1.15 Thurman

    I still think Thurman will win, but those odds seem a bit off to me.

    I do think any close round goes to Thurman though. He is one of Haymon's premium products now. Haymon can't afford to let him lose his "0" without cashing him out well...

    I think Guerrero will win if he can make it a Guerrero fight, and smother and outwork One Time.

    I think the fight will be close. Guerrero has a good chin! If Soto Karass can land a few good shots on Thurman, I think Ghost can too. Close fight!

    Close fight. Good value to bet on ghost.

    Guerrero has a very good chance here. I like Uma but the odds shouldn't be that wide.

    Soto Karass's dimensions were different than Guerrero's. He was far longer and taller than Thurman and naturally bigger. Ghost won't hold those advantages. Thurman is better on the inside, and I will wager despite the fact Ghost wants to be rough on the inside, Thurman will be stronger. Guerrero does have a good chin though, so I'm not certain of a stoppage. This will go 12.

    I like Thurman and the ghost
    Robert could win this fight infact I give it sixty forty in his favour but will not be shocked if Thurman does get a sd

    Yeah, decent odds for Guerrero considering how hittable Thurman is. I like Keith but he needs to sort his D out - gets tagged with that loose-armed style.

    great odds for Guerrero, but he DOES NOT have a great chin. I would rate it average at best.

    He does have good skills, when he stays in form. He was huge vs Berto which leds me to believe he was juicing. He went toe to toe with some Asian bum, which leads me to believe he still is.

    Against Thurman though, he will NOT be allowed to get by the testing, as Im sure Haymon knows this as well.

    So Guerrero w/o the juice will look much the same as the guy who was on Bambi legs every time Aydin touched him up or down.

    Thurman inside 6 rds is the most probably outcome.:think

    Guerrero isn't great at WW, Thurman will deal with him pretty easily.

    Guerrero doesn't have the footwork to trap or push back
    the very mobile thurman, plus if he gets careless against
    this very legit big punching welterweight he will be stopped
    for the 1st time in his career. The ghost ain't hurting or
    outboxing 1 time, so his chances are slim and none. Slim
    is up the river doing a dime, btw.

    Until last fight I was going to say Guerrero had a shot of winning. But Thurman showed that despite boos and ambition, he can fight on back foot and not get foolhardy. He showed patience and wisdom beyond his current experience level, so even IF the ghost manages to land a good shot and make it into a brawl, I can see Thurman backpedalling until he is out of danger, and then potshotting his way to victory.

    Thurmans got this walking away look at the last few fights of guerrero he is very hittable for big shots and Thurman is a natural welter with good footwork and movement as well as 1 punch power guerrero is very flat footed after 1 to 2 rounds if he don't come in top form he will be going to sleep before the bell rings to end the 6th round...... Thurman in 6 by KO
