RAZZ-MCFC Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 Steve Kim tweeting now that Guerrero's got a shoulder injury so it's off. Here's more RingTv.com has learned that Robert Guerrero has suffered an apparent shoulder injury that will force the cancelation of his fight with Marcos Maidana that was scheduled for Aug. 27. Guerrero-Maidana was to be televised on HBO. Neither Golden Boy Promotions CEO Richard Schaefer or Guerrero's publicist could be reached for comment. An official from HBO said that he had no knowledge of the injury or the status of the Guerrero-Maidana fight. According to a source, the extent and severity of Guerrero's injured shoulder is not known, but the fighter was "on his way to get it medically checked." http://ringtv.craveonline.com/blog/168649-guerrero-shoulder-injury-forceces-cancelation-of-fight-with-maidana- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donlevy Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 That's quite a bit of a letdown;I was actually looking forward to this one.Hopefully they reschedule it rather than call if off completely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

littleman370 Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 maidana-matthysse would be a cheaper fight too. they could even save up some cash for a live opponent for donaire!!! but, alas, i'm dreaming Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skav Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Tbh, I'm hoping Matthysse wins aganist Erik so the Khan vs Morales bout doesn't get made. Schaefer said last Monday in London that if Matthysse wins then they won't bother with the WBC belt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siren1927 Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Looks like the whole card has been cancelled Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davemurphy Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Very weird circumstances, so close to the fight date and they canceled it immediately rather than even entertaining any ideas of postponing to a later date. With other cards, that's usually a code word for poor ticket sales and cutting their losses, but that's not the case with this one. If we see Guererro or Maidana jump right into a different fight almost immediately then it could indicate something fishy. But for now, there's no indication Guererro isn't hurt, but that doesn't make me any happier to see this one scrapped :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
