Guerrero beats Aydin
for interim WBC title
SAN JOSE, Calif. — Robert Guerrero proved he could still win after moving up two weight classes. Whether he has done enough to warrant a date with a big-name fighter like Floyd Mayweather Jr. remains to be seen.
Guerrero delighted his home crowd by unanimously outpointing Selcuk Aydin in his first fight in more than a year to win the WBC interim welterweight title.
Guerrero, a 126-pound featherweight for most of his career, moved up to 145 pounds to take on Aydin, hoping it would lead to a possible date with a higher-profile fighter.
Mayweather, who gets out of jail next month, holds the full WBC welterweight title. Guerrero is now the mandatory challenger although it’s uncertain who Mayweather will fight next.
