The six fighters who will compete on the pay-per-view undercard portion of “MAY DAY: Mayweather vs. Guerrero” this Saturday from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nev. participated in their final press conference on Thursday in front of a packed media center at MGM Grand. Daniel “Ponce” De Leon (44-4, 35 KOs) risks his WBC (World Boxing Council) featherweight championship against two-division world champion Abner Mares (25-0-1, 13 KOs), Leo Santa Cruz (23-0-1, 13 KOs) opposes Alexander Munoz (36-4, 28 KOs) in a 10-round bout for the vacant USBA jr featherweight title, and J’Leon Love (15-0, 8 KOs) faces Gabriel Rosado (21-6, 13 KOs) in a 10-round fight for the vacant NABF belt.
Daniel Ponce de Leon: “This is going to be a great fight. I’m very prepared. I’ve fought many times at MGM. Everyone wants to see a battle and that’s what I’m ready for. Don’t miss it.”
Abner Mares: “I want to thank Ponce for this opportunity. You guys know me. I’m ready. I’ll fight anyone as long as we give fans a good fight, I’m with it. I’ve dedicated this fight to my dad, who suffered a stroke a month ago. I’ve trained hard and I’m ready. I actually added something to my training; I call it Mexican judo: ‘ju’ don’t know if I’m going to box and ‘ju’ don’t know if I’m going slug, but ‘ju’ know I’m going to win.”
Leo Santa Cruz: “I’m going to show the world who Leo Santa Cruz is. I’m very excited to be on this undercard. I know Munoz is an extremely strong fighter who comes forward. I’ve trained hard and worked hard. It’s going to be a war and I’m going to try and finish him before the 10th round.”
Alexander Munoz: “We know Santa Cruz is tough. I’m prepared for this and I want to make all the fans in Venezuela proud.”
J’Leon Love: This will be a good fight. We have much love for Team Rosado. There is no bad blood. Both of us have a lot to prove. He came up a little short in his last fight, but he’s a tough guy. A lot of people are also saying this is a big step up for me, but I’m a fighter and this is what I do. It’s going to be a very good fight. We’re going to both put it on the line, but I will be victorious.”
Gabriel Rosado: I fell a little short in my shot at a world title, but I got a taste of the big stage. I don’t think he has the experience I have and I’m hungry and determined. I had a great camp and I’m prepared to leave it all in the ring. I expect to have a lot of Philadelphia fans on hand here. I can’t wait to open the show and give the fans a great fight.”

Jhonny Gonzalez Shot to Death in Venezuela




Journalist Jhonny González, 33, was killed at daybreak of Friday after his night-time duty at sports daily newspaper Líder.

It happened in the fourth street of La Urbina, east Caracas, when González was intercepted by several subjects on a motorcycle and a car, who urged him to hand his car over to them.

He presumably opposed to the move and was shot three times. He could not be taken to the hospital as he died right away. His body remained inside his car.

Nelson Mendoza, the victim's father, said that the journalist called his mum to tell her that he was on his way. This is the second ordeal undergone by the family as a result of violence. On April 16, 2000, Johnny's brother, Héctor Hugo González, 23, was murdered in order to steal his car.

González's is the 44th body taken to Caracas morgue in May.

Floyd Joy Mayweather Jr.: High Potentate of Boxing Universe, no more doubt




It's time to bow down.
It's time to concede. Call it throwing in the white towel if you must but even Ray Charles can see this clearly.
Floyd Joy Mayweather Jr. is the undisputed King of the Ring. Showing sudden signs of mental maturity at age 36, following a jail stint which gave him time to think and reflect, Mayweather is now the President, the Prime Minister, the Potentate of Pugilism.
Old guys like me are used to heavyweights, to fellows named Muhammad Ali or Larry Holmes, being the Face of Boxing, at least when there's no lower weight, charismatic figure such as Sugar Ray Leonard at the pinnacle.
Different time, different world.
Because, as he prepares to dazzle Robert Ghost Guerrero this Saturday, it's Made In The USA Mayweather who absolutely rules boxing's roost. Is he bigger, in impact and importance, than the admirable Klitschko Brothers?

You bet he is, you win. You bet he is not, you lose.
Yes, the KBros. are huge in Germany, bigger maybe in Ukraine and other parts of Eastern Europe.
But, in terms of flair or worldwide magnetism, Mayweather bakes the cake, takes the cake and wants to eat it also. (Department of Mixed Up Metaphor Department).
I should also mention how Mayweather is taking care of family business in a righteous way by using his father as his lead trainer, despite all their prior dissension and bickering. Meanwhile, Mayweather keeps Uncle Roger, stricken by diabetes, on retainer.
Mayweather, the Family Guy? Nice to see this happening and I'm not being sarcastic.
Guerrero is coming to fight but if he's counting on how many punches dinged Mayweather when he fought Miguel Cotto, then he will be sadly mistaken as you can expert "Money" to be razor sharp this "May Day."
I see this as a one-sided Mayweather victory, Floyd taking eight to nine rounds and rolling on his September soiree.
We can wish the fall fight would be against precocious Canelo Alvarez but that won't be the case.
For now, Mayweather's got the perfect Cinco de Mayo foil.
Ghost does not have a Ghost of a chance to win it.
But that doesn't make him a bad person, just another commoner who cannot match the Emperor's skill set.
All hail, no more jail, for King Floyd.

New York State Boxing Hall of Fame 2nd Annual Induction Ceremonies


 



Sunday April 28th,2013 was the 2nd Annual New York State Boxing HOF Induction Ceremony. Well attended by 500+ persons, it was a very entertaining day that saw many emotional acceptance speeches as well as some of the most hilarious stories coming from the inductees.
 Iran Barkley, who has hit some hard times recently but is getting much support made a impassioned speech about his mom and the love she had for him. He Thanked all for the support he receives and later, Shelly Finkel said “Iran never said NO to meeting any opponent ever put in front of him.” and Iran also said than “no one ever thought he could beat Hearns, only himself, and needed to prove it to everyone he could”.
 Though still living Joey Archer and Doug Jones could not make the event but “Thank You” letters were read from them and families. Junior Jones and Mark Breland were both inducted and common here, where you find one, you find the other not far behind. Great Champs each.
James Buddy McGirt was funny in his acceptance-known to use tough street language throughout his career and today, he promised his wife he would do his best “to hold back much”, but eventually apologizing many times about two sentences into his speech.All good natured.
Shelley Finkel told of some history behind the great fights he put together that had you riveted on your seats and Don Duphy’s two sons relayed their thanks from his family.
Tony Graziano-Boxing trainer of the past and present owner of “Graziano’s” rest. and hotel just feet away from Canastota’s Boxing HOF had some nice words.And of course, invited all to his place if you ever go to Canastota.
Posthumously Teddy Brenner, Johnny Dundee, Maxie Rosenbloom, Jack Dempsey, Mike Jacobs, Tex Rickard, Sandy Saddler were all Inducted as well. A fine job of telling of each of their historical bios came from historian Henry Hascup, Don Majeski, Bob Duffy, Steve Farhood, Neil Terens, Ron McNair, Bobby Bartels, Tony Mazzarella and BWAA’s Jack Hirsch.
Barclay Center in Brooklyn, NY new house announcer Dave Diamante did a fine job of introductions.
On hand was Great Champion Eddie (Gregory) Mustafa Muhammed who was very appreciative of the Honor and was one of the few attendees who took the red eye from England the night before because he was in the Ring with his fighters on Saturday nite.
Bobby Cassidy, a top Contender from the 60′s and 70′s was inducted. A long time Norkus family friend who resided just one town over from us for his boxing years remembered his early days when Teddy Brenner told him he wont add to much in the fight game. How wrong Teddy was as Bobby held his own against many top names and was a huge New York Champ to many here.
Larry Merchant couldnt make it as well and sent his Thanks. Bob Arum too.  All in all a very fine day with the Boxing crowd.
The event is sponsored by Ring 8 and as usual, as you can see, the fighters and guests mingle under a casual atmosphere and the Inductees sign autographs and take pictures as long as one doesn’t request more than they should. The food is very good and starts with buffet brunch and then sit-down dinner and huge dessert trays-unlimited by staff. Open Bar. $150 p/p was the tab. A good time by all.

More than 300 people attended this past Sunday’s second annual New York State Boxing Hall of Fame (NYSBHOF) induction dinner, sponsored by Ring 8, at Russo’s On The Bay in Howard Beach, New York, as 20 inductees from the Class of 2013 were honored.

“This is the second year for the New York State Boxing Hall of Fame,” NYSBHOF and Ring 8 president Bob Duffy explained. “This is for New York but it could be the Brooklyn Boxing Hall of Fame with so many of this year’s inductees from Brooklyn. The New York State Boxing Hall of Fame is for New Yorkers and one by New Yorkers. All of these inductees are responsible New Yorkers. We remember their services from the 40s, 50s and 60s, when boxing was so big in New York, and it’s big again today. A lot of people in the audience will be inducted for years to come. The dream of Tony Mazzarella was to have the New York State Boxing Hall of Fame – New Yorkers for New Yorkers.”

The 2013 NYSBHOF inductees were (participants) Jack Dempsey (61-6-9, 50 KOs), Johnny Dundee (83-32-20, 17 KOs), Sandy Saddler (144-16-2, 103 KOs), Maxie Rosenbloom (207-39-26 (19 KOs), Joey Archer (61-6-9, 50 KOs), Iran Barkley (43-19-1 (27 KOs), Mark Breland (35-3-1, 25 KOs), Bobby Cassidy (59-16-3, 27 KOs); Doug Jones (30-10-1, 20 KOs), Junior Jones (50-6, 28 KOs), James “Buddy” McGirt (73-6-1, 48 KOs), Eddie Mustafa Muhammad (50-8-1, 39 KOs); (non-participants) Bob Arum, Shelly Finkel, Tony Graziano, Larry Merchant; Teddy Brenner, Mike Jacobs, Tex Rickard, and Don Dunphy,

Each inductee received a custom-designed belt signifying his induction into the NYSBHOF.

U.S. Congressman Peter King (R-NY), a strong supporter of boxing who introduced his close friend, Bobby Cassidy, was a guest speaker. “I congratulate all of the honorees today for their outstanding careers, especially my friend, Bobby Cassidy, for all he’s done,” Rep. King said. “I introduced, with Senator McCain, a bill (Muhammad Ali Act) to protect fighters and now we’ve introduced another bill asking the President (Obama) to pardon Jack Johnson. It’s an injustice.”

The inductees were selected by the NYSBHOF nominating committee members, including Jack Hirsch, Steve Farhood, Don Majeski, Henry Hascup, Ron McNair and Neil Terens.

All boxers needed to be inactive for at least three years, in order to be eligible for NYSBHOF induction, and all inductees must have resided in New York State for a significant portion of their boxing careers.

Dave Diamante served once again as Master of Ceremonies for the event. Special guests in attendance included Vito Antuofermo, Luis Colazzo, Vinny Maddalone, Renaldo Snipes, Leona Brown, and Mia St. John.

Quotes from some of the inductees and their pictures are below. All pictures by Peter Frutkoff.

Junior Jones: “There are a lot of great fighters up here. This is a great event recognizing New Yorkers. I want to thank all of the people who were part of my team.”

Iran Barkley: “Teddy Brenner basically asked me, ‘You think you can fight.’ I told him I was going to be champion of the world and he said, ‘You’re never going to be champion.’ You don’t know how made he made me that day and I then beat everybody he put in against me.

“When I fought (Thomas) Hearns, nobody thought I could beat him, but I wasn’t afraid. I’m a Bronx guy and I was used to getting hits by bricks and bats. I won with blood, sweat and tears. I said to get ready to pick him up and carry him out.”

Tony Graziano: “It’s an honor being here with all these greats and in the New York Hall of Fame.”

Bobby Cassidy: “I truly appreciate and I’m honored to be standing here today. I started boxing in 1963. Teddy Brenner said I was a million-to-one shot but his long-shot paid off. Like a lot of guys, boxing saved me. It was go in the ring or go to jail. Everything I have is through boxing. I was sent all over the world. I was a fighter; just tell me where to show up. I never turned down a fight. I fought six opponents who fought for the title and beat four of them. All I ever wanted was to fight for the title. I never fought for the title and that really hurt me more than anything and I had 80 pro fights and 500 stitches. I’m a fighter and always will be. Standing up here makes up for never getting a title shot. I’m truly honored.”

Mark Breland:”It’s good to be here with all these guys. I’ve always looked up to, and I don’t know if he knows it, Tony Santana. I sparred with Eddie Mustafa Muhammad. It’s an honor to be here and accept this award. I had a lot of fights. I enjoy boxing; it’s a lot of fun. All my years in boxing, I always had a great manager, Shelly Finkel. He’s family.”

Shelly Finkel: Anyone in the sport knows there are two families – one at home and the fighters. Somebody once asked me, when all is said and done, how do I want to be remembered? That I cared about my fighters. There have been so many incredible moments in the ring. I’ve had the greatest career with my fighters on the ring but, after the fighting, that I could help my fighters.”

James “Buddy” McGirt: “This group of fighters up here, you don’t understand, it’ll be 100 years before you’d find a group of fighters like this. In 1987, Iran Barkley took to training camp. He didn’t need to do that and I was just another expense. But it helped me become world champion. In 1989, Eddie Mustafa Muhammad came to gym in Las Vegas everyday for five weeks to watch me train. As a fighter there are certain things you never forget. On November 29th, 1991, Eddie yelled my name and gave me a thumbs-up. It was the greatest night of my career. Everybody was yelling and what I remember was Eddie yelling, ‘McGirt.’”

Eddie Mustafa Muhammad: “This is special to me. I am very appreciative and humbled to put me in the New York Hall of Fame with all these terrific fighters. But, if you invite me again to another festive occasion like this, please (jokingly) don’t sit me between McGirt and Breland. They’re friends of mine, like family. Iran and I won many titles together. I told him that, if he listened to me, he’d be a three-time world champion. He looked at me like I was crazy. I blew it….he became four-time world champion.

“Now, I have my newest world champion, Ishe Smith, and Chad Dawson. I thank God for allowing me to transfer any skills, what I learned from my former trainers, to my students. I’ve had 18 world champions in a young career. After I retired, I didn’t know what to do, and Bob Arum said I could train because he knew I was working with Mike McCallum, who became world champion. I brought Floyd Mayweather his first world champion (Smith). I’m a part of the ‘Money Team’ and thank him for having the trust in me to train some of his young fighters.

“This is like winning a world championship. I love this!”

HOW THEY PICK ’EM: ‘MONEY’ IN THE BANK? ATHLETES, ENTERTAINERS AND EXPERTS PICK THE WINNER OF SATURDAY NIGHT’S “MAY DAY: MAYWEATHER VS. GUERRERO” MEGA-FIGHT FROM MGM GRAND IN LAS VEGAS AND LIVE ON SHOWTIME PPV


 

The stars and scribes always come out when Floyd “Money” Mayweather fights, and there will be an abundance of both when the Eight-Time and Five-Division World Champion returns to the ring to face Six-Time and Four-Division Champion Robert “The Ghost” Guerrero in the highly anticipated main event of “MAY DAY:  Mayweather vs. Guerrero” this Saturday, May 4 live on SHOWTIME PPV from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nev.

So who is going to triumph?  The experts overwhelmingly like Mayweather to be victorious, but none expect it to be simple or easy.  Mayweather is the favorite as always, but most expect a competitive, hard-fought scrap, and no one foresees a blow-out.

Here’s how they see the Mayweather-Guerrero fight: 

ATHLETES

Terry Bradshaw, NFL Hall of Fame QB who’ll be performing at The Mirage in June (Mayweather): “Mayweather is a proud fighter who wants to remain undefeated.  He knows how to win big fights…and he won’t lose a fight in Vegas!”

Marlon Byrd, New York Mets Outfielder (Mayweather): “Floyd’s going to knock him out in the eighth round.”

Ed Davis, Memphis Grizzlies Forward (Mayweather): “Because his record is 1,000-0 and he will NOT lose.  Floyd by knockout in the sixth round.”  Twitter: @eddavis32

DeMar DeRozan, Toronto Raptors Guard/Forward (Mayweather): “Floyd might have to work a little bit, but at the end of the day Floyd is going to be Floyd and finish him off.  He wins by eighth-round knockout.”  Twitter: @DeMar_DeRozan

Braylon Edwards, NFL Wide Receiver (Mayweather): “Never bet against Floyd.”  Twitter: @officialbraylon

Curtis Granderson, New York Yankees Outfielder (Mayweather): “I have to say Floyd’s going to keep that zero in the loss column.”

DeSean Jackson, Philadelphia Eagles Wide Receiver (Mayweather): “My big bro Floyd is going to win.”

Matt Kemp, Los Angeles Dodgers Outfielder (Mayweather): “Floyd by decision.  He’s too fast for Guerrero.”

Kevin Krigger, Jockey of Goldencents in the Kentucky Derby (Mayweather): “I’ve seen some of Guerrero’s fights and he didn’t impress me that much.  He didn’t look like a guy who could beat Mayweather.  It depends on what Mayweather wants to do with him.  He might want to use him to prepare for his next fight.  Mayweather will win by knockout in the sixth.”

Andrew McCutchen, Pittburgh Pirates Outfielder (Mayweather): “It will be a good fight and it will go the 12-round distance, but in the end, Mayweather will be victorious by a unanimous decision!”

Shabazz Muhammad, Former UCLA Basketball Guard/Forward (Mayweather): “Floyd knocks him out in the fifth.”

Jermaine O’Neal, Phoenix Suns Center (Mayweather): “Floyd will be a little rusty to start the fight off because of the long layoff, but will pick-up a lot of steam around the third round.  Then he will begin to beat Guerrero up and ultimately knock him out by the sixth.”  Twitter: @jermaineoneal

Doug O’Neill, Trainer of Goldencents Santa Anita Derby winner and one of the top contenders in the May 4 Kentucky Derby (Mayweather): “Floyd is an experienced, cagey veteran.  He will find Guerrero’s weaknesses and win by fifth-round knockout.”

Metta World Peace, Los Angeles Lakers Forward (Mayweather): “Mayweather will rally late in the fight to win a decision, eight rounds to four.”

Ray Rice, Baltimore Ravens Running Back (Mayweather): “By the eighth round, Mayweather will have worn him out and will capitalize with a knockout.”

Michael Vick, Philadelphia Eagles Quarterback (Mayweather): “I think it’ll be a good fight, but Money always makes the right adjustments so I don’t see him losing.  Floyd wins a unanimous 12-round decision.”  Twitter: @mikevick

Dion Waiters, Cleveland Cavaliers Guard (Mayweather): “Hardwork and dedication are the keys.  I spent some time with Floyd in Las Vegas last year and he is the hardest-working athlete I’ve ever seen.  I can’t see him losing now or ever.  He wins by fifth-round technical knockout.”  Twitter: @dionwaiters3

Maalik Wayns, Los Angeles Clippers Guard (Mayweather): “Floyd Money Mayweather is the greatest of all time.  Enough said.  Fourth-round technical knockout.”  Twitter: @maalikwayns2

Thaddeus Young, Philadelphia 76ers Forward (Mayweather): “Mayweather is too fast for Guerrero and will win a 12-round decision.”  Twitter: @yungsmoove21

ENTERTAINERS

Jahlil Beats, Super Music Producer (Mayweather): “Mayweather gets the W.  He’s the greatest of all time.”

Justin Bieber, Pop musician, Actor and Songwriter (Mayweather): “I’ve got Floyd all day.”  Twitter: @justinbieber

Sean Cooper, FANTASY at Luxor Comedian (Guerrero): “Mayweather needs to hype up the fight he needs to lose.  Money for the Rematch.  Guerrero wins!’’

DeRay Davis, Comedian/Actor (Mayweather): “It’ll be a fourth-round knockout for the champ.  He’s going to make an example of him.”

The Game, Rapper (Mayweather): “Floyd in 4.”

Brad Garrett, Comedian and Host at Brad Garrett’s Comedy Club at MGM Grand (Mayweather): “Mayweather in 9.  ‘Money vs. The Ghost’…sounds like my divorce.”

Marquez Houston, Singer/Actor (Mayweather): “Floyd definitely wins.  I’m going with a ninth-round knockout.”

Jinsu, Rapper (Mayweather): “Floyd by sixth-round TKO.  Win No. 44 (will be) light work.”

Jackie Long, Actor (Mayweather): “Floyd will win by knockout in the fourth or fifth round.”  Twitter: @jackielong

Mario Lopez, TV Personality (Guerrero): “It being Cinco De Mayo weekend and me being Mexican, I have to go with the upset and pick Guerrero by split decision in an entertaining and spirited fight.”  #VivaMexico”

Lorena Peril, FANTASY at Luxor Star Powerhouse Vocalist (Mayweather): “Floyd will win a decision.  He is a great champion and always brings his best into the ring.”

Da Problem, Rapper (Mayweather): “We all know Floyd going to go to work on his ass!”

Busta Rhymes, Rapper (Mayweather): “Floyd is gonna bust his ass”

Chris Shiflett, Lead Guitarist of Foo Fighters (Guerrero): “I think Mayweather is WAY overrated.  Look at his record.  Every elite fighter he’s ever been in there with was shot except Victor Ortiz (who was giving him problems until the whole thing melted down).  De La Hoya was handling Mayweather with the jab.  Mosley almost knocked him out.  Cotto was winning that fight but gassed out because he’s shot.  Everybody else Mayweather has faced was a bum.  Guerrero is young, fresh and motivated.  I don’t think he’s going to let Mayweather get in his head or be overwhelmed by the moment.  The Ghost by decision.”

MEDIA
 
Matthew Aguilar, El Paso Times (Mayweather): “Guerrero’s youth may present Floyd with some middle-rounds problems, but ultimately he doesn’t have Floyd’s skills.  Mayweather by unanimous decision.’’

David Avila, Riverside Press-Enterprise (Guerrero): “Robert Guerrero’s got the athleticism, ability and attitude to dethrone Mayweather on a decision.”

Ron Borges, Boston Herald (Mayweather): “Mayweather wins a decision.  He will be in tough for a while, but he has too much speed, knowledge and defensive skills for Guerrero.”

JT The Brick, Talk-Show Host, Fox Sports Radio (Mayweather): “Speed and experience wins it for Mayweather via eleventh-round technical knockout.”

Damian Calhoun, Orange County Register (Mayweather): “I see this being a close fight.  Guerrero’s toughness and determination will cause Mayweather some problems at times, but I expect Mayweather to use his smarts and defensive skills, and then adjust to be able to secure a victory by unanimous decision.”

Steve Carp, Las Vegas Review-Journal (Mayweather): “Mayweather by decision.  With only five fights left in his career, I expect Floyd to be ready to fight and not tarnish his legacy.  While southpaws have given him some trouble in the past and Guerrero hits harder than people give him credit for, I don’t think he can do enough damage over 12 rounds to beat Floyd.”

Mike Coppinger, USA Today (Mayweather): “It may end up being the toughest fight of Floyd’s career, facing a southpaw who likes to rough up his opponents, but it’s hard to pick against the greatest fighter of this generation.  Guerrero will find a lot of success in the early rounds, but as Mayweather always does, he’ll make the necessary adjustments.  Mayweather will counter Guerrero and turn his aggression against him.  Floyd will begin to land more and more as the fight winds down, leading to a close, unanimous decision.”

Percy Crawford, FightHype.com (Mayweather): “I think it will look a lot like the Ortiz fight minus Guerrero doing something as crazy like not protecting himself at all times.  Floyd will use Guerrero’s aggression against him and pick him apart over 12 rounds with Guerrero having one or two moments in the fight.”

Tim Dahlberg, Associated Press (Guerrero): “All fighters get old, and Floyd Mayweather is no exception.  Jail and not fighting for a year at a time takes its toll.  This is the fight he suddenly ages, and gets his first loss.  Guerrero by decision.”

Flattop, Fightnews.com (Mayweather): “Floyd’s speed, power and class will be too much for Guerrero, who’s tough and has skills, but Mayweather has been the total package his entire career.  Guerrero will be competitive for a few rounds until Mayweather decides to turn up the heat.  Guerrero will be knocked down a few times and he will get back up each time.  I could see his corner throwing in the towel once it becomes a ‘May Day’ exhibition; otherwise Mayweather will score a lop-sided decision or late-round knockout.”

Lyle Fitzsimmons, The Fight Network (Mayweather): “Admittedly, Guerrero is young, tough and powerful, but unless Mayweather gets old overnight, Guerrero is also still vulnerable to precisely the sort of precise punishment ‘Money’ has dished out to the myriad of foes who have entered with the same ‘I’ll rough him up’ promises.  A la Arturo Gatti, the ‘Ghost’ gets beaten up in a lot of his wins and, like Gatti, he’s in over his head with Mayweather, who wins by tenth round tecknical knockout.”

Norm Frauenheim, 15rounds.com/The Ring (Mayweather): “Guerrero will make things interesting for a while with pressure and toughness.  The toughness might surprise Mayweather, but the pressure won’t.  He’ll counter it with patience and then precision.  Mayweather’s right will land, occasionally early and with damaging frequency later.  It might not score a knockdown, but in the end, however, Mayweather’s accuracy will bruise, cut, exhaust and force a tenth-round technical knockout stoppage.”

Karl Freitag, FightNews.com (Mayweather): “Mayweather by unanimous decision.  Guerrero hasn’t stopped anyone north of lightweight and Mayweather is more than happy to go the rounds, so in a fight that seems certain to be going the distance, it’s hard to pick against Floyd, who is a big favorite for a reason.”

Leighton Ginn, The Desert Sun (Palm Springs, Calif.), (Mayweather): – Mayweather will win by ninth round technical knockout.  He was a heavy favorite, but now even more so with Guerrero facing legal problems in New York.”

Kevin Iole, Yahoo (Mayweather): “I think it’s going to be a closer fight than a lot of people believe and I would have given Guerrero a better shot were it not for the arrest in New York that took a few days out of his training and has to have had some kind of impact upon his focus.  Mayweather’s legs aren’t the same, but nobody sees punches coming more clearly than he does.  He’ll have to fight hard to keep Guerrero from mauling him, but Floyd is slick at using his elbows to create space, as he did in the Ricky Hatton fight.  In a fiercely contested fight, I expect Mayweather to win by decision.”

Steve Kim, MaxBoxing.com (Mayweather): “Mayweather will win by decision.  Bottom line, I think unless Floyd has gone backwards physically, he’s simply too sharp and accurate for the hard-charging Guerrero.”

Bill Knight, El Paso Times (Mayweather): “Floyd may have a little rust, but he is still too quick, too good and will wear Guerrero down and win by ninth-round technical knockout.”

Ryan Maquiñana, Comcast SportsNet Bay Area (Guerrero): “Up until this year, I’d have to go with the untouchable Mayweather if I was forced to pick, but given Guerrero’s southpaw tools, busy hands, ring IQ and fearlessness, it feels like the perfect storm for an upset.  If he can take advantage of the 36-year-old Mayweather’s inactivity and aging legs, the ultimate question is whether Floyd will still fight with the fire of a king who doesn’t care there’s a $30 million check waiting for him, win or lose.  Guerrero takes a 12-round decision.”

Gabriel Montoya, MaxBoxing.com (Mayweather): “Mayweather is not looking to get beat in the first of a massive six-fight, $300 million deal.  Supremely skilled, but with all 36 years showing in his increasingly less mobile legs, Mayweather faces in Guerrero, a determined, skilled and experienced boxer.  At 147, Guerrero is not a power puncher nor particularly fast, but he’s a strong southpaw who understands that style can be troublesome for the shoulder roll defense Floyd employs at times.  The first few rounds will be clinch-filled as the fighters search for their rhythms.  Floyd’s age combined with a year-long layoff might make for some exciting moments for Guerrero fans, but ultimately, Guerrero will find the speed and accuracy of Floyd unmanageable as “Money” finds his range and pot shots his way to a unanimous decision.  One down, five to go.
 
Gordon Marino, Wall Street Journal (Mayweather): “I think Robert is too vulnerable to the right hand and Mayweather’s is whipsaw fast.  Also, unlike Andre Berto, when Guerrero pins Mayweather to the ropes, Mayweather is not going to square up.  Eighth round technical knockout for Mayweather.”

David Mayo, MLive.com/The Grand Rapids Press (Mayweather): “In losing a step and fighting in front of opponents, Mayweather has made himself more dangerous and put himself in more danger.  No one solved the early version and no one has solved the latter version either.  Guerrero’s a solid pro’s pro, but he isn’t the best to have tried and Mayweather has to get old before our eyes to lose.  That will happen if Mayweather fights long enough, but I’m guessing this isn’t the night and he breaks down Guerrero with typical technique and precision until he gets a chance to finish later in the fight.  Mayweather wins in nine.”

Robert Morales, Los Angeles News Group (Mayweather): “Even though I believe Mayweather has slowed down just a bit, I don’t think it will be enough for Guerrero to land enough clean punches to win the fight.  Mayweather wins a decision.”

Kieran Mulvaney, ESPN.com (Mayweather): “Guerrero will make Mayweather fight.  He will swarm him, hit him on the arms, shoulders, hips, wherever he can.  He’ll slow him down and keep Mayweather in front of him and that’ll be his downfall.  Floyd may not have the legs he once had, but his hand speed is still tremendous and his accurate punches carry weight.  Guerrero will be in close, head down, and constantly vulnerable to flashing Mayweather uppercuts inside.  They’ll gradually wear him down and one will finally drop him, leading to a Mayweather barrage and a tenth round technical knockout, but Floyd will be hurting for days afterward.”

Rick Reeno, BoxingScene.com (Guerrero): “This is the first time I’m picking against Mayweather, but I believe the stage is set for Guerrero to pull off the ‘Upset of the Year’ (and possibly the decade).  Unlike some of Mayweather’s past opponents, Guerrero has chased this fight for several years.  He is fresher,  hungrier, throws a lot more punches, has a good chin, is very physical and does have the ability to adjust.  He’s certainly Mayweather’s most difficult opponent in several years.  As long as Guerrero controls the pace and prevents Mayweather from making it a technical boxing match, the fight is his to win by close 12-round decision.”

Martin Rogers, Yahoo Sports (Mayweather): “Mayweather is too strong, too skilled and too clever and he will win by decision.”

Mike Rosenthal, The Ring Magazine (Mayweather): “I think Guerrero is a very good all-around fighter and tough as nails, but Mayweather is a great fighter even if he has slipped a tad.  Mayweather by unanimous decision.”

Jon Saraceno, USA Today (Mayweather): “Floyd shakes off the rust and wins a decision.”

Lem Satterfield, The Ring Magazine Online (Mayweather): “There will be some treacherous moments for Mayweather simply due to his relative inactivity compared to Guerrero’s.  Mayweather will have been out for nearly a year since his last fight against Miguel Cotto on May 5 last year, but I believe that he will have enough determination and savvy to elude significant damage on the way to a victory on points over 12 rounds.”

Tim Smith, New York Daily News (Mayweather): “Guerrero is no slouch as he proved against Andre Berto, but Mayweather is no Berto.  Mayweather is one of the best boxers and most skilled defensive boxers of this generation.  He won’t be standing in one spot for Guerrero to tee off on him.  Everyone thinks they have a plan against Mayweather, but he is so adaptive in the ring that plans unravel and boxers are left grasping at straws just to stay in the ring with him.  I don’t think Guerrero is the tactical match for Mayweather, but I think he has a good enough chin to withstand what Mayweather can throw at him.  Mayweather by decision.”

Bob Velin, USA Today (Mayweather): “Guerrero is one of the toughest fighters in the business, and has a will to win that is second to none in the sport.  But he has never faced anyone like Mayweather.  Mayweather is the best there is at defending himself, as in, avoiding punches.  Guerrero will likely try to make Mayweather fight his fight, which is a ‘toe-to-toe, I-can-wear-you-down-before-you-can-wear-me-down’ style.  Guerrero may get to Mayweather’s left shoulder, but it’s unlikely he will do much damage to Mayweather’s head or body.  Mayweather’s patience will frustrate Guerrero and take him out of his game.  Meanwhile, Mayweather will counter Guerrero at every opportunity and end up winning on points.’’

Mark Whicker, Orange County Register (Mayweather): “Mayweather by ninth round technical knockout.  He has adjusted to age and become a far better offensive fighter.”

Michael Woods, ESPN NewYork.com (Mayweather): “Floyd gets the W, same as last time, and the time before, and the time before that.  Guerrero is willing and skilled, but limited.  Floyd gets the unanimous decision, but his face will tell you after that he’s been in a fight.”
