By Allan Fox: Steve Kim is reporting that Robert Guerrero’s fight against Selcuk Aydin in San Jose, California only drew 2,891 ticket with 3,126 tickets given away for the fight at the HP Pavilion. Those are not good numbers at all, not when Guerrero is trying to make a case that he deserves a fight against Floyd Mayweather Jr.
Selcuk Aydin
Robert Guerrero is going to have to find some power or he won’t last long at 147
By Jason Kim: Robert Guerrero (30-1-1, 18 KO’s) made what many boxing fans felt was a desperate move by jumping up two weight divisions to face previously unbeaten Selcuk Aydin (23-1, 17 KO’s) last night in San Jose, California. The gamble paid off with the 29-year-old Guerrero pounding out a 12 round unanimous decision.
Robert Guerrero: I’m the first Mexican American to win titles in four different weight classes
By Dan Ambrose: Former two division world champion Robert Guerrero (30-1-1, 18 KO’s) was really getting ahead of himself last night after beating Selcuk Aydin (23-1, 17 KO’s) to win the WBC interim welterweight title in a fight televised by Showtime.
Guerrero: If Floyd wants this belt it’s right here
By Allan Fox: You have to wonder whether Robert Guerrero (30-1-1, 18 KO’s) took too many shots to the head in beating Selcuk Aydin (23-1, 17 KO’s) last night in winning the interim WBC welterweight title at the Shark Tank in San Jose, California. After the fight, Guerrero called out the full WBC welterweight champion Floyd Mayweather Jr. in an odd manner by challenging him by using his interim WBC title as bait.
Don’t be surprised if Canelo Alvarez faces Robert Guerrero in the near future
By Dan Ambrose: Robert Guerrero’s win over Selcuk Aydin may not have been enough to get him a fight with Floyd Mayweather Jr in 2012 or 2013, but it could get him a match-up against WBC junior middleweight champion Saul Alvarez later on this year unless I miss my guess. Both Guerrero and Alvarez are Golden Boy Promotions fighters, and we’ve already seen how Golden Boy has no problems with matching Alvarez against welterweights.

With this victory, Golden Boy will almost surely try and talk WBC welterweight champion Floyd Mayweather Jr. into making this his next fight at the end of the year.
Aydin the better choice for Mayweather than Guerrero
(Photo: Showtime) By Dan Ambrose: Despite losing tonight by a 12 round unanimous decision, welterweight contender Selcuky Aydin (23-1, 17 KO’s) was the much more impressive fighter, the more exciting fighter and the the bigger puncher compared to Robert Guerrero (30-1-1, 18 KO’s).

But Guerrero did win the WBC interim welterweight title, and he made a case for himself that he should be next for Floyd Mayweather Jr, the full WBC welterweight champion.
Selcuk Aydin with chance to cut short Robert Guerrero’s dreams of a big fight against Mayweather
(Photo: Showtime) By Jason Kim: Robert Guerrero (29-1-1, 18 KO’s) wants a big money fight against Floyd Mayweather Jr. so badly that he was willing to make a drastic move by skipping the light welterweight division and moving straight from the lightweight division to the welterweight division to take on #1 WBC 147 contender Selcuk Adyin (23-0, 17 KO’s) tonight in San Jose, California.
Guerrero hoping to make it to the big time by beating Aydin tonight
By Dan Ambrose: Former IBF featherweight and super featherweight champion Robert Guerrero (29-1-1, 18 KO’s) is hoping he can put himself up among the big names in the welterweight division tonight with a victory over Selcuk Aydin (23-0, 17 KOs) in San Jose, California. Guerrero is targeting Floyd Mayweather Jr, and for that fight to have even a slight chance of happening, Guerrero is going to have to destroy Aydin.
