May Day is finally here, this Saturday May 4th, 2013, Floyd 'Money' Mayweather will face Robert 'The Ghost' Guerrero in a Welterweight Championship showdown. It's become a spectacle knowing that Floyd Mayweather holds court on or around Cinco De Mayo facing the best opposition to make it a huge boxing weekend. Next up to bat and have a crack at Floyd, is Robert Guerrero. Guerrero has been calling out for some time now, and finally gets his man this Saturday night at the MGM in Las Vegas. Guerrero has worked his way into scoring a fight with Mayweather by jumping two full divisions and pulling off an impressive victory over Andre Berto to be the next to have a shot at Mayweather. Floyd took out Miguel Cotto last year, and now looks to take out the young lion in Guerrero this time around. Robert will have to use to the same fight tactics that he used in the Berto fight, fight hard, rough and touch with some dirtiness in the mix. He can't afford to get into a boxing match against Mayweather, he will be beaten and outscored. So Guerrero needs to get off, with smothering Mayweather on the inside, catching him against the ropes and attacking the head and body. For Mayweather, it'll be interesting to see if he will be willing to mix it up against Guerrero, like he did last year against Cotto. Last year, Mayweather went toe-to-toe with Cotto, and pulled off a great performance and fight that many didn't expect out of Floyd. Mayweather can easily pull off an unimpressive victory by outpointing Guerrero, so time will tell if he will impress boxing fans by mixing it up with 'The Ghost.' It all goes down this Saturday, at MGM in Vegas, where theWBC Welterweight title will be on the line. Mayweather v Guerrero is promoted by Golden Boy Promotions and will air live on Showtime Pay-Per-View at 5pm PST.
In the undercard, Daniel Ponce De Leon will put up his WBC Featherweight Ttile against undefeated Abner Mares. This fight has been predicted by many boxing experts along with the fighters themselves, to steal the show this Saturday night. Mares is moving up in weight after dominating the Batamweight and Super Bantamweight circuit. Ponce De Leon is coming off a huge victory over Jhonny Gonzalez, whom he won the WBC Featherweight title over. This fight is sure to bring fireworks, as these two will put it all on the line to take hold of the division, and make a statement as who is the top Featherweight.
Also in action will be Gabriel Rosado, who looks to bounce back against J'Leon Love, after being destroyed by Gennady Golovkin. Plus Leo Santa Cruz is back in action looking to rack up another impressive victory as he squares off against Alexander Munoz in a Junior Featherweight Title match. Looking forward to another big night in boxing this Saturday night.
Noez Predictions:
Floyd Mayweather Wins By Unanimous Decision
Abner Mares Wins by Split Decision
Gabriel Rosado Wins by 9th RD TKO
Leo Santa Cruz Wins by 6th RD TKO
