He was 5'10, small in terms of middle's today when you think of Pavlik being 6'2 but Martinez is 5'10 and got at Pavlik so why not?

Spinks fought at light middle and middle (gold at the Olympics at the weight) as an amateur, so perhaps size may not have been as big an issue as you say.
:deadrose:
Homie I know you didn't compare Spinks to Palvik... :shaq:

If he would have moved up to fight spanks he would have got his ass whooped.

You don't see Sergio stepping to fight Ward do you?

I actually prefer fighters who stay in their weight class because one thing it proves is you damn sure aint running from nobody. Its like you got my name, number, and address, bring ass if you want to get ass. I dont know when we will see Andre Ward move up, why should he? He can dominate 168 for a while. If he is cool with the money then why not? What you wont see happen is someone call out Ward to fight him in his own division and he decline. He couldnt turn Dawson down, thats like somebody sayin I am coming to your house to kick your ass and you say...."uhh, I wont be home". I think Ward would leave though if there is no viable options or challenges.

Also, there are glamour divisions. Spinks went to heavyweight briefly and made more money in 3 fights than he did his whole career at LHW. HW, LHW, MW, WW, LW, FW....all of those are glamour divisions. Why do you thing BHop skipped 168? Hagler was already ruler of one of the divine kingdoms.

That's you.

If that's the case why are we pulling for Floyd Canelo again? Or Floyd Sergio.

Better yet broner vs Mythysse. Not saying you but that's what the boxing world wants.

Robert Guerrero, preparing to challenge welterweight titleholder and pound-for-pound king Floyd Mayweather Jr. on May 4, was arrested Thursday morning at John F. Kennedy Airport in New York after attempting to board a flight to Las Vegas with an unloaded gun.

Guerrero (31-1-1, 18 KOs), who turned 30 on Wednesday, was arraigned on gun possession charges later Thursday and released on his own recognizance.

Rafael's Boxing Blog
Get the latest scoop and analysis on the world of boxing from ESPN.com's Dan Rafael in his blog.

Queens District Attorney Richard A. Brown said Guerrero has been charged with illegally traveling with an unloaded pistol and three unloaded high-capacity bullet magazines. The weapon and 15-bullet clips were discovered during a routine preflight check-in, Brown said.

"I hope that Mr. Guerrero fights better than he thinks," Brown said. "For anyone who hasn't gotten the message, let me be crystal clear: You cannot bring an unlicensed weapon -- loaded or unloaded -- into this county or this city. And if you do you will be arrested and face felony charges."

Brown said Guerrero is charged with one count of criminal possession of a firearm and three counts of third-degree criminal possession of a weapon. If convicted, he faces up to four years in prison.

"Earlier this year, New York State enacted the nation's toughest gun restrictions -- the New York Secure Ammunition and Firearms Enforcement Act of 2013," Brown said. "One provision of that law is that the penalty for possessing an unloaded firearm is raised from being a Class A misdemeanor to being a Class E felony.

"It is therefore more important than ever that if a passenger chooses to travel with a weapon, they should first acquaint themselves with the weapon laws of the jurisdiction that they are visiting and comply with any and all legal requirements. Otherwise, they may find themselves being arrested and charged with a felony -- as is what occurred in this case."

Golden Boy Promotions chief executive Richard Schaefer, who is promoting the Mayweather-Guerrero fight, told ESPN.com that, despite the charges, the fight will go on as planned. He said he spoke to Guerrero on Thursday afternoon and that he was on his way back to Las Vegas to resume training. Schaefer said Guerrero's next court appearance won't be until May 14.

"Robert will have to show up in court in New York and have to explain himself, but there are no implications on the fight," Schaefer said.

According to the charges, Guerrero presented a locked gun box to a Delta Airlines ticket agent at about 6:46 a.m. ET as he checked in for his flight, and it contained an unloaded Smith & Wesson M&P .40-caliber handgun and three unloaded magazines with the capacity to hold 15 rounds of ammunition. At that point, police were called.

According to the police report, Guerrero told authorities that he possessed the unloaded firearm when he arrived in New York from Virginia on Monday.

Guerrero, who is from Gilroy, Calif., and is training for the fight in Las Vegas, had been on the East Coast for a few days to make several appearances to promote the Showtime pay-per-view fight against Mayweather, which will be held at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.

Guerrero, a Christian who has spoken publicly about his faith, appeared on the "700 Club" with Pat Robertson in Norfolk, Va., then visited ESPN headquarters in Bristol, Conn., to tape interviews, and hosted a media lunch in New York on Tuesday.

After wrapping up the promotional blitz, he was headed back to Las Vegas to resume training for the fight.

A source told ESPN.com that Guerrero has a permit to carry a gun in California, but is not licensed in New York, where gun laws are among the strictest in the nation.

Showtime spokesman Chris DeBlasio told ESPN.com the network had no comment.

Guerrero's co-manager, Luis DeCubas Jr., who was traveling with him, could not be reached. He did not respond to a text message, and his voice mailbox was full.Robert Guerrero faces gun charges

but homie you dikk ride broner....:shaq:


The Irony in this fukking post...:deadrose:




Kahn isnt going to make the 140 tourney. I think he fights the winner of Brook/Alexander..

But, how is it irony?


I dont see myself or anyone running around saying "I cant wait to see Broner vs Pauletta"! We all know that Broner is gonna beat the brakes off that boy.....it's easy work. The best part of that is I get to see my favorite fighter fight once again this year and you will be blessed to be in the presence of greatness:blessed:


However, they having all types of build-up and hyping up Robert Guerrero beating Berto like this wont be a glorified "sparring session" and like Floyd aint gonna win at LEAST 9 rounds to 3:heh:


Guerrero is a B-Level fighter and hasnt even EARNED a shot against Money Mayweather. He gets Floyd by going the distance against Joel Casamayor, Vincente Escobedo, Michael Katsidis, Selcuk Aydin, and Andre Berto in his last 5 fights?:rudy:


I'm not talking down on Money Mayweather aka Big Bro.....he's an ally of the #BandCamp . I'm talking down on Robert Guerrero actually being talked up by some of these "boxing pundits" and acting like Floyd is gonna have any kind of discomfort in this fight.

Nobody in Guerrero's camp knew NY isn't concealed carry? Why even bring guns? GB and/or Showtime don't give their fighters bodyguards when they're promoting huge events? :why:


Cali is strict with their gun laws too, I would imagine. Why would he think NY is any different?


If his in-ring IQ is anything like his street smarts...Floyd will stop him.

Hard-hitting Alfredo Angulo and savvy southpaw Erislandy Lara will fight in a junior middleweight co-feature to the Marcos Maidana-Josesito Lopez welterweight main event on June 8 at the Home Depot Center in Carson, Calif., according to Angulo's manager and counsel Michael Miller and Golden Boy CEO Richard Schaefer. Both bouts will be televsied on Showtime.

Lara (17-1-2, 11 knockouts) is coming off a technical draw with Vanes Martirosyan last November, and Angulo (22-2, 18 KOs) has won two straight since being knocked out in the sixth round by James Kirkland in November of 2011.

"Alfredo Angulo is going to fight Lara on the Maidana undercard, probably as the co-main event," said Miller. "That's what it looks like."
