    Now that the fight is here, the press conferences, all access episodes and predictions have been made.

    Do you think that Guerrero will be a tough fight for Mayweather?

    I certainly do. A prime Floyd will be able to potshot his way to victory and could possibly get a late KO. But this version of Floyd will have some troubles against Guerrero, his legs aren't as sharp and he will get caught on occasions.

    I feel Floyd will win but Guerrero is in top top shape mentally and physically. The guy has too much heart and has never truly been dominated and I doubt he will go over easy. The episode shows how determined and focused he is, he will probably come quite heavy on fight night and will try to bully Floyd.

    We shall see. Looks like it should be, but Guerrero is stepping up in competetition, so we shall see.

    I'm not counting Guerrero out, but the odds are against him, except for age.

    I think it will certainly be competitive. I expect Robert to do better than Miguel. From the way I see it, Floyd doesn't struggle with strength and size; it's speed he finds harder to deal with, so I reckon Robert should give a good account of himself. I could be totally wrong, though, and I still expect Mayweather to win one way or another.
     
  4. Tough fight that Mayweather should win.

    Been saying it for a while that I think Floyd should retire soon, maybe once he whoops Guerrero it's time.

    After signing a multi-million dollar six-fight contract with Showtime, he's not going to retire after this fight.

    Could be a bit difficult in stretches to control the geography of the fight, but from any distance the fight takes place, Mayweather's quicker, sharper, and more polished offensive arsenal (in combination with his defensive prowess) should see him to victory clearly. Wouldn't surprise me if the scorecards were wide, but didn't accurately reflect the competitiveness of the bout - especially in the first four to six rounds.

    It will be tough because Guerrero is going to cheat, try to bully and spoil the fight with his grappling type tactics.


    This is going to be a Ricky Hatton type fight for Floyd, where its going to be very physical and Robert is going to try smother Floyd, bully and push him, from this angle its going to be a tough fight for Floyd.

    If you watch the ray Robert fights in his last two fights he basically hugs and holds the entire time looking for something on the inside or to swing something over the top and then back out, reach with his punches to do the same thing all over again.

    Its going to be an ugly fight if Floyd can't keep him off of him.

    Robert is going to be shocked to find that Floyd is stronger than Berto physically aswell as on the inside.

    Im looking for a Floyd win, but thats barring any 'ends justifies the means' type fighting from Robert that manages to spoil the fight somehow.

    Im expecting some blatantly dirty stuff from Robert, so yes, this is going to be a tough fight for Floyd.

    I think Guerrero is a 6 round fighter. Not that he completely shuts off after six, but he does his best work in those rounds. I think Robert could give Floyd a go for the first half, but should get picked apart down the stretch.
