ROBERT “THE GHOST” GUERRERO WILL REMAIN WITH GOLDEN BOY
By Dan Rafael ESPN.COM
Junior lightweight titlist Robert Guerrero (25-1-1, 17 KOs), caught in a tug-of-war between promoters Golden Boy and Dan Goossen, will remain with Golden Boy after the sides came to a financial settlement following a second round of arbitration, made necessary when Goossen protested the original ruling in Golden Boy’s favor because of irregularities in the initial proceeding. “It was amicably settled,” Goossen told ESPN.com. Said Golden Boy’s Schaefer, “It went through re-arbitration and the arbitrator suggested the sides talk. We came to a financial settlement. Guerrero is a Golden Boy fighter. Everything is settled. The lawyers are putting the paper work together, but everything was agreed upon in front of an arbitrator.” Guerrero, a former two-time featherweight titlist, claimed a junior lightweight belt Aug. 22, easily outpointing South Africa’s Malcolm Klassen on HBO.
