Fight Review: Mayweather v Guerrero

What can be said after Saturday nights May Day event.  Floyd Mayweather faced Robert Guerrero in a Welterweight Championship bout.  For 12 rounds, Mayweather did nothing but take Robert Guerrero to class as he schooled him giving him a boxing lesson he won't soon forget.  Mayweather boxed brilliantly as he caught Guerrero with fast swift jabs and avoiding punches thrown by Guerrero.  It was an awesome display of boxing skills that prove to make Floyd Mayweather, pound for pound, the best that boxing has got to offer at the moment.  Guerrero never really threaten in any round as he was simply out boxed and out skilled by the much more experienced and older Mayweather.  The game plan was simple for Mayweather, hit and don't be hit, and Floyd executed it brilliantly.  Guerrero was never in the fight as Mayweather destroyed any game plan he may have had coming into the fight.  Floyd Mayweather went on to win by unanimous decision as all judges scored the fight the same, 117-111.  Now the question becomes who will be next up to try and dethrone the best pound for pound kingpin in boxing.
