Berto looked terrific
I was pretty impressed with Andre Berto in his win over Carlos Quintana on Saturday night. He’s been stepping up the competition little by little in his recent fights and I think it actually turned out well that he didn’t face Shane Mosley in January. What do you think is a logical next step up for him? I think he could use two or three more fights before getting in with one of the big three at welterweight. What about a fight with Clottey or Cotto?

I think Berto is one of the “Big Three” at welterweight, myself. I believe he’s surpassed Mosley and, in my mind, that’s saying something. I spoke with Dan Goossen, Paul Williams’ promoter, this morning and Goossen insisted that Williams is still a welterweight. If that’s true, I would love to see a Berto-Williams fight in the summer, assuming Williams gets past Kermit Cintron in their super welterweight bout on May 8.

If the fight happens who you got?
