Bout Summary

The one-sided bout saw Guerrero, who was fighting in his hometown, control the over-matched Findley. He used movement and measured punching effectively with little threat from his stocky opponent. Guerrero's best round was likely the 4th when it appeared Findley was hurt. Findley alternated between appearing game and throwing punches to being almost wholly defensive and just trying to get through rounds.
