Shane Mosley vs. Andre Berto

I would pick Berto by a close decision in a great fight. If anyone wants to see the speed and skill part of boxing, then this is definitely the fight to watch.

berto only loses to williams and margarito

a prime 135 mosley was way better than berto.

I almost always take the guy on the way up over the guy on the way down. And it is pretty obvious which one is which here.

Berto's live as **** in this, but I'd favor SSM, maybe 60-40. 60 - 40 get yo ass kicked! :boxing:

If you asked me before sat night I would have said Mosley without question, but now I see Berto being the better fighter in the future if they would ever meet.

Berto Does remind me of a young Mosley, not as good but simalair

My moneys on Berto, i think Shanes done. I Know theres plenty of reasons why he might have struggled ie. Weight, style clash, lay off ect but i think he just got too old to perform at top level. Youth beats experiance here for me, and judging by that interview after the Mayorga fight i dont think Shane wants it, but i also KNOW he'd take it if he felt it was a big demand Mosley got stones!

Mosley wants no part of Berto...too young, fast and strong with good boxing abilities Not saying it wouldn't be competitive cause it def would be, but Mosley don't want that at this stage of his career especially when Berto isn't a big name...yet It was basically what he said after the fight was over when he was asked by Merchant. he said Berto is a young tiger and he reminds me of me. it would like looking on the mirror if I fought him right now. I see berto getting hit too much too cleanly. If he was leaving himself open like that early on against Mosely he would get dropped....Lefty

I think the're two completely different scenerios, one is Mosley stopping Berto late. This would only happen is Mosley fights Berto on his toes from the get go, times his shots and lands quick combinations on the inside and gets out. Kinda like the old Mosley used to fight, I agree with people saying one of his most important weapons is experience. If he times Berto when he exposes himself after he throws Berto will fall. I think Mosley can still pull it off. The other is Berto by a very close margin and going down at least once in the process. Berto will fight him with the same eagerness he's displayed against most opponents in the opening rounds, but once Mosley notices he can hurt him he will jump on Berto. Berto will probably adapt himself and will outbox Mosley to win a very close decision. I think the outcome would still leave Mosley unvanquished and he will probably fight again. Should be a great fight!

If I had to put my money on it, it would be Berto UD. Mosley is an old fighter and it showed against Mayorga. Not that Berto is really elite yet, but hes got enough to out do an old Mosley.

this is a tough fight for both, imo. yes, mosley probably looked bad because he fought Mayorga, who also weighed 10 pounds more than Mosley. Mosley never looks good at 154 anyways. the man should be at 147. Berto is fast, explosive, has great stamina, and decent defense, but, as others have said, he does get hit. can Berto handle Mosley's right hands? will Berto's speed/workrate overwhelm Mosley? will Mosley's experience be too much for the young Berto? Berto is obviously young and very hungry. i would choose Mosley by close decision overall, still a great fight.

I think Berto takes it mosley is looking really ragged, but i dunno if berto can take it yet. gotta see shane in his next fight at 147 to see if it was because of mayorga's style and strength that had shane flummoxed. but right now would be a good time for berto to get a fight with shane because shane doesn't look like he feels really confident about himself.

is he gonna fight colllazo next?? even that i dont like that much collazo... he would be a real test for berto until i see him fight someone with a chance... I'll wait.. you need more tools besides speed to make real noise .. hes good ... and for me... still a prospect even that hes a champion.. i this one.. i would pick mosley

Berto by UD. Mosley could stop Berto though.

Berto by UD. No way Mosley KO's him, I think Berto would outwork Mosley to a UD. Mosley is a great fighter but the young buck got him on this one. No way Mosley KO's him?

mosley ..mayorga made him look bad ..and cotto is on an entire dif level then berto ..so mosley tko8
