A boxing champ was packing more than a punch yesterday when he was busted at a Kennedy Airport check-in counter with a handgun, authorities said.
WBC welterweight champion Robert Guerrero, 30, declared that the gun was in luggage he planned to check for his 8:10 a.m. Delta flight to Las Vegas.
Though the gun was unloaded, he was busted for violating New York’s strict gun-possession laws.
Guerrero, who in media appearances touts his clean-living Christian lifestyle, was freed without bail after he pleaded not guilty in Queens Criminal Court.
He’s due back in court on May 14 — leaving him free for a May 4 bout against rival Floyd Mayweather.
Guerrero, who was being filmed by a TV crew from the Showtime network, said the “media knows he is a hunter and requested he bring the weapon for a photo op,” said a police report.
