EFT Report, Las Vegas: Floyd Mayweather Jr. knocked out Robert Guerrero in the WBC welterweight title fight on Saturday, May 4, 2013 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.
Mayweather fought as if he had never left the ring, coming back from a year's absence on Saturday night to win a unanimous 12-round decision over Robert Guerrero in their welterweight title fight.
The game plan was defense, and Mayweather followed it perfectly. With his father directing from the corner after a 13-year absence, he dominated Guerrero in a performance not totally expected at the age of 36.
Mayweather was masterful at times, landing thudding right hands and bloodying Guerrero's face in a performance that mimicked some of his best fights. Mayweather hurt Guerrero on several occasions, including a series of right hands near the end of the eighth round that buckled Guerrero's knees.
All three judges scored the bout 117-111.
"We did it again," Mayweather said after earning at least $32 million for his night's work. "I take my hat off to Robert Guerrero. He's a true warrior."
Mayweather remained unbeaten in 44 fights and looked so fresh that he may follow through on his plan to fight again in September.
