Will Floyd Look Better Against Guerrero Than He Did Against Cotto?

118 Floyd on the scorecards.....maybe 117 if he stops to tie his shoe or something bizzar like blowing kisses....Money All Day:good

 

He'll do better but won't look better IMO, if that makes sense. I have a feeling his body might start to wear down a bit.

 

I think this is an easier match up for Floyd but I thought Cotto would be a walk over so who knows

 

I'm hoping Guerrero comes to fight and pulls the upset.

 

I think people are worrying about Floyd's decline too much. Its a "we wont know until we see" thing and of course he didn't look great against Cotto. Hell no he didn't dominate but he wasn't getting hit as much apart from occassional jabs. Age could be part of it as well as moving up to 154 but Guerrero is and will never be as good as Cotto. Styles do make fights but nothing Guerrero presents could bother Floyd so he has to wish Floyd is in a deep decline. Still Floyd takes care of himself well so I wouldn't be too concerned.

 

I'm guessing about the same as I think Guerrero is better than Cotto was at this stage but I also think the fighting weight this time benefits Mayweather, whereas last time it benefited Cotto

 

yeah, hes at his at a better weight....plus he fought reckless vs cotto to prove that he could go toe to toe

 

No he didn't, he got backed up by a jab like has happened before and is better at fighting out of his shell than he is constantly circling an opponent.

 

I think he will look slightly better especially if Guerrero can keep the fight in the center of the ring. I hope that the ref will break them up quickly when they clinch up against the ropes. I've been watching some of Guerrero's recent fights today on On Demand, and he has the tendency to bend forward and lowering his head. He'll be eating a lot of uppercuts and short right hands downstairs once he tries to force his way on the inside. I think Floyd's punching accuracy will look better in this fight too. It all depends on how he wants to fight Guerrero though. Even if Guerrero try to keep the fight on the outside, Floyd will still voluntarily bait him to fight off the ropes.

 

My prediction as well. Ghost's coming to fight.

 

He said he would go toe to toe with guerrero

But ur right the natural weight helps

 

What else would he be coming to do? It's a ****in fight and ghost will get dominated. Dude is TOO SLOW to hang with Mayweather. This fight will be a schooling.

 

I respect Floyd's skills and I expect him to win a close UD (especially since Canelo won), but I think Floyd will begin to show his age. Taking prolonged vacations, short jail stint, getting older... it all just doesn't bode well for boxing.

I think Ghost surprises Floyd early, a la Mosley, and makes it competitive. I've got a close fight for about 5-6 rounds. Around round 8 I see Floyd taking control (assuming he doesn't make a mistake and get caught, which can happen with age).

 

Guerrero is going to shock everyone, including Floyd himself.

 

Yes.
