Guerrero vs Peralta: Peralta Might Be a Taxi Driver, But He’s No Hack
Robert “The Ghost” Guerrero (33-5-1, 18KO) was expected to win, and look good doing it.

Guerrero, a former world champion, fought the likes of Floyd jr., Danny Garcia, and Keith Thurman. Of course, he lost to each of those men, but you’re missing the point. Just being in the ring with those guys is supposed to mean something.
