Gee thats a bit harsh. Why bother leaving a comment like that. Better not to say anything.

Thank God. A couple fights too many but a career that any pro would die for...several huge payday Main Events towards end of career and cash in. That's so much better than fighters that make all their money at the beginning and then end up fighting for peanuts at the end trying to pay the bills. Not quite HOF potential IMO but I enjoyed watching this guy gut it out with heart.

Guerrero had a rough career. In and out of the ring. Guerrero's wife battled Leukemia. One of the good guys in the sport of boxing. More power to him.

Well done. He had his time and after losing half brain in last bout he saved his other half from dying in ring.

The pounding Guerreo took from Thurman really took a toll.
He was a tough warrior. Outsized in the welter division.
Let's hope this rugged champion stays retired. Unfortunately, most come back.

There are very few fighters I dislike so much. He was one of them. Anybody that goes on 700 Club and acts like Pat Robertson is a great guy, they're a piece of sh*t in my book.
That's the fun of being a fan of the sport. You cheer the guys you like, you boo the guys you don't like.
Most fighters I'm indifferent to. It's fun when there's some sort of emotional investment in a fighter one way or the other, but it has to come naturally.

Anybody that watched his career knows this. For years he couldn't be seen without the commentators letting us know "His wife had cancer"..."His wife is battling cancer"..."His wife battled cancer"...
It got a point that aside from Robert "700 Club" Guerrero, his other nickname was Robert "My Wife Had Cancer" Guerrero.

Now I like him less even than which I thought wasn't possible. I didn't like him because I thought he wasn't very good or interesting, but one of those guys that was always on TV for some reason. But considering he was on that wretched show:
Good riddance to bad rubbish.
