Saturday night at 11:30 PM ET Floyd “Money” Mayweather and Robert “The Ghost” Guerrero will dance for the world welterweight championship. Floyd Mayweather vs Robert Guerrero Betting Odds opened originally with the pound-4-pound king “Pretty Boy” Floyd as a 10 to 1 favorite but money on the “Ghost” has clipped the price to a modest 7 to 1. Mayweather, 43-0, 26 KO’s, most recently fought his most exciting bout against Miguel Cotto but some observers felt that “Money” was getting touched up a bit too much on his way to a unanimous decision. The former featherweight and lightweight champ, Guerrero, 31-1, 18 KO’s, roughed up and bullied top welterweight contender, Andre Berto as a 3 to 1 underdog, earning his right to dethrone Mayweather Jr..

Robert Guerrero: Guerrero,30, is the consummate pro with no real technical flaws and a steely resolve. The rangy 5’8″ lefty has a 70″ inch reach and a sturdy frame as a welterweight weighing 152-155 Lbs. on the night of the fight. Robert is a well-rounded and intelligent boxer/puncher with above-average power and a strong body attack. “The Ghost” can nasty in the trenches when he needs to but he is better served boxing outside with his accurate combinations and sound footwork. Guerrero has a very good chin having never been stopped but he is susceptible to cuts and can be touched up. Floyd Mayweather vs Robert Guerrero Betting Odds Over/under is at 11.5 Rounds with the Over at -270.
Floyd Mayweather Jr. : “Money” Mayweather,36, stands a shade under 5’8″ with a long 72″ reach and a carved frame that goes 149-151 Lbs. on the night of the fight. Mayweather can do it all, box at range behind a piercing jab, counterpunch with precision toe-to-toe or sharp shoot with power. Mayweather is not known as a puncher but he is a better puncher than given credit for and his blinding hand speed creates openings for flush shots. Mayweather knows all of the tricks evading punches but his legs have lost a little spring and his reflexes may have dimmed a notch. “Pretty Boy” also has shown that his chin is not immune to welterweight power after getting bounced around by Shane Mosley but his stamina is unmatched.
Boxing Picks Prediction: Guerrero is going to be game and come out aggressive, better than fellow lefty Victor Oritz but eventually Mayweather will start picking him off and following up with some sting. Around the 9th round Guerrero will start fading and Floyd will pull away with a clear decision win. Guerrero will take some punishment along the way but his heart in chin will not let hime be stopped in this one. Grab Mayweather on the Boxing Odds prop board to win by decision at -300 rather than laying -700 on the moneyline straight up.
