Thought you guys would be interested in a documentary on Robert Guerrero that is in the pipeline.

It talks about his life in the ring as well as his wife's battle with leukaemia, should be a very interesting documentary.

Trailer can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gbi6utOIUrI&feature=player_embedded

I like Guerrero, but i would like him more if he stopped banging on like boxing's Opera Winfrey. Everday you see a Guerrero comment on boxingscene. Khan this, Froch that, Mayweather. Shut up!

I like him too, but as you said he can be a bit tiresome. He is calling out top welterweights like mayweather, pacquiao and ortiz without having a fight in the 140lbs division yet. Looking at his record, no names really stick out. He is a very good fighter but doesn't quite have the popularity or fanbase to be a enticing option for other fighters.

He definitely falls into the category of high risk low reward

Don't really think I would put him as a high risk fight for the likes of Floyd, think he gets dealt with rather simply in truth.

I think he would cause a few problems, Alex. He is sharp, has good height and reach and importantly a solid jab.

Don't think he would beat Floyd, but I don't think it'd be all plain sailing, either.

Think Floyd wins almost every round personally, he's an outside fighter, doesn't have anything in his arsenal that troubles Floyd except a good jab, but Floyd has a better one, think he'll walk into straight rigfht hand leads all night and maybe get stopped late.

Light-welterweight his last one, wasn't it? He certainly needs to walk before he can run at welter, that is for sure.

He fought Katsidis at Lightweight for sure, he might have had one fight previously at 140 not sure though, but even so, he's not faced a welterweight yet, personally I think the SSM that fought Mayweather would have sparked him.

He fought Casamayor at 138, but its clear he has the frame to move up, just like donaire.

I just find his attitude to figting anyone refreshing, regardless of whether he'll beat them. His feet are excellent, he'd pose many problems for Mayweather in my opinion, but may want to mature first.
