I've only seen two of Litzau's fights, one of which was his KO loss. Although he has apparent talent, so far it seems to be more style than substance.
This fight should tell us exactly where he stands.

Yeah, I've only seen him in a couple of fights, and from that I am thinking "the ghost" stops him in the mid rounds.
The guy gets hit too cleanly...

Litzau's level of opposition has been really weak thus far. Now they're all of a sudden putting him in with Guerrero? Makes me wonder if his team is very confident in their man or foolish.

N the Fight Where he was KO'ed, Litzau Got Dropped VERY Early, Went N 2 Defensive Mode, Racked Up the Next 7-8 CONSECUTIVE Rounds, then Got OVERconfident, Reverted Back to Norm & Got STRETCHED...

I think Litzau has a decent shot in this fight. Guerrero is nothing special, but it would take a solid gameplan executed consistently over 12 rounds for Litzau to beat him.
Litzau hasn't proven that he can do anything consistently for an entire fight, and that's why he is likely in trouble.
To me, the result of this fight is entirely up to Litzau. If he can settle down and fight like a professional for 12 stright rounds, he can win this fight. If not, Guerrero likely wears him down and stops him in 8 or 9.

02-05-2008, 05:35 PM
Wow. I've never seen anything close to this kind of talent and ability in Litzau. He's just another entertaining brawler, with a big left hook and the scent of hand speed.
You can't miss him with a punch and he's suspect on that chin (thats so easy to hit). Gurrero is no huge puncher, but he's crisp and pretty accurate. Mismatch.

Litzau is VERY Talented N REED's Opinion...He's Got MORE than a "Scent" of Handspeed, he's Got GENUINE Lower Weight POWER N Both Hands, he's Got that Tommy Hearns PHYSIQUE, he Throws Practically EVERY Punch Effortlessly & he's Got a GOOD Set of WHEELS...
The DOWNER is, Litzau Apparently has Tommy Hearns' CHIN as Well:lol: , but even Tommy Didn't CONSISTENTLY Fight as DUMB as Litzau has...Litzau has Tommy HearnsISH TALENT, but Wants to B Arturo Gatti:rolleyes: ...
But when he COMMITS Himself to DEFENSE, Litzau is a Pretty GOOD Defensive Fighter...

some of the "moves" Litzau does are Mayweatheresque - like when he leans on his opponent and then hits them as they try to bail out. it's clear he's watched a lot of Mayweather.
that's probably why some people like him.

I think Litzau has to get going early in this fight and make Guerrero feel his power. And by getting going early, I don't mean moving around and pot-shotting Guerrero hoping to drop him-- I mean Litzau needs to apply steady pressure and discourage Guerrero from merely walking him down.
If he can't do that he'll lose the fight for sure. Guerrero is by far the stronger fighter and will benefit from the close quarters exchanges that are likely to occur once the later rounds come on.

Guerrero throws that mean left upper-cut to the belly. If he can land that punch on a regular basis, Litzau is in trouble.
Guerrero is better in every department. Imo, it's at least a 10-1 fight.
.
Litzau is not without hope, though. He hits hard, pretty fast hands and Guerrero doesn't always fight up to his potential. But, even the bad versions of Guerrero probably beat Litzau.

Agreed. Rbert is pretty inconsistent from fight to fight, but even on a bad night, I don't think Litzau can beat him. Cos even on those shitty nights, where his defense is a little off and he plods around a bit; he still lands his share of shots and works the body well. Litzau isn't built to hold up over a long fight.

"Reed typically wanted to build whitey up, with clear and transparent ridicule, to draw focus on him, and add an impressionable impact when he comes crashing down, he tried to do the same thing with Pavlik, but adverse circumstances thwarted his agenda. Thankfully for him, his elusive method is one of comfortable consulation, he is able to lean back on the 'I told you so' factor, during the depressing moments where race based agendas, fail to converse." - Orthadox Cruisader

that punch to the pit of the belly where he throws it is devastating and can soften up even the most durable of fighters.
i agree. he gets a right hook going, he'd never lose again to a guy like Salido.

Salido beat the shit out of Guerrero and Guerrero throwing another type of punch in that fight only would have resulted in more openings.
Argue that Salido wouldn't have won but for steroids and I'll shut up, but argue that Guerrero (with a new punch) is so much better than that version of Salido and I think you are way off.

This was a damn entertaning fight. Not sure how it translated on television, but Guerrero boxed well the first three rounds or so, coming forward and using the jab well...he threw some straight lefts to the body which isn't all that common these days.
But, as seems to be his standard, he let up a little in the early middle rounds and began fighting more on the inside and that allowed Litzau to creep back into the fight. Litzau hit him flush with some shots in those rounds...Guerrero even walked in to a couple jabs that landed pretty darn clean. Not a good sign at all for The Ghost.
Guerrero is getting better, he's using the jab more but he's just not consistent with it from round to round in an entire fight. He does go to the body inside, but it's not a place where he can win rounds against more skilled boxers. Salido beat him up on the inside...which is important, given that Salido is #2 in the IBF rankings (with the #1 slot open).
Guerrero's a tough fighter, though. He took a beating in their fight and lasted the distance.
The sixth round of this fight was just an absolute war. But Litzau appeared to be wearing down and in the eighth Guerrero made good use of his left hand and the uppercut was a key punch...once he had Litzau down it was all but over.
Great win for Guerrero but Litzau's a fighter where you can get false confidence from because he is available to hit.
The great thing about this fight is, even though it was in the middle of California, there was a decent amount of Bay Area press coverage for the fight. He even made the front page of the SF Chronicle sports section. Guerrero's recieved a lot more media attention the second time around as champion, and he's gotten a lot of support after the stories of his wife's illness..thankfully it appears the leukemia's in remission.
