QUOTE (mrchitown @ Sep 11 2012, 10:05 PM)  I think Merchant and the gang thought this due to this aura of invincibility that was around Roy at the time, but looking back on it, the writing was on the wall for him to get beat. His run at 175 was never that impressive to me And that's what I have a problem with, Guerrero is a solid fighter. I like watching him fight, just not at 147. I think the networks are the reason these fighters act the way they do, every fighters goal is to get on TV, then onto ESPN or one of those main event cards, then onto HBO or Showtime and the end goal is PPV. The problem is the 2 big networks pic and choose who they air and who they want to puush and it's usually some "sensational" story behind them Fighters like Guerrero should get dates due to skill i don't think guerrero is where he is because of his back story. he has skill. he can fight. he's right where he needs to be...a headliner on showtime. like i said before...i think he needs a big win or two to get him in line to face floyd...but i have no problem with him calling out floyd right now. |

Definitely not but he was pushed as that headliner in Showtime for his big mouth as in calling out Floyd and his wife's unfortunate situation If not for that, He'd be on ShoBox instead of Showtime Championship Boxing |

I think he'll get Broner before he gets Floyd, and we'll be saying the same thing about his jump up in weight classes and the ass whopping he's going to put on Guerrero |

True, Demarco looked so good in his win last weekend that he almost has no choice but to fight Broner next. I think Broner makes short work of him |

When it's all said and done, I think we'll be talking more about Broner then Robert. I like him and he's a hard nosed fighter but Broner just has that "it" factor inside and outside the ring. Guerrero doesn't. Special talent special skill, that's Broner. He does alot of a-hole stuff but that's his choice. It doesn't take away from his ability and he's ahead of Robert in that dept. If they fought I think due to Broner's age and his activity he'd give the ghost fits. |
