Where's the hype for Berto Mosley?

It got overruled by the steroid controversy. I'm still looking forward to it though, should be a good start to the year.

shame that GBP does not require its roster of fighters to go Olympic style testing, and Berto asking for it that would have started the hype

why dont you start a thread about it......that would start the hype I just did......

He certainly can't be undisputed or Ring champ until he beats both Berto or Pac/Floyd winner but if you have to consider anyone champ at least for the time being its him......even though he gets almost no recognition. your right it just too bad that mosley does not get recognition he deserve,and I would really like to see him fight Pac or Floyd after Mosley, unless Berto spoils it, those are two other fights I want to see... anyway all of them should fight each other and for sure fans wont mind...

Mosely has the strongest lineal claim right now and if he was to beat Berto and pick up a strap or if Berto was to pick up a strap and knock off SSM then either man would easily have stronger claim than anyone without dispute.....realistically Floyd has not done anything at ww since retringing and coming back and Manny is really just a contender at 147 with a strap and only 2 ww fights under his belt......the overhype and attention both get though separates ppl from the reality of what fights are won and who is where based on the results of those fights which is all that matters in regards to title legitimacy. I have to agree Mosley have a strong claim but not being champion but being No. 1 contender and any lineal championship claims should pass through him but he has to fight the number 2 to be the champion or in some cases no. 3... so unless you place berto at those two spots imho Mosley mostley is one fight away to have lineal championship legitimacy...

Yeah, can't wait for this fight; logically I take Mosley but I give Berto a huge chance on physical assets alone due to the fact that he's been stunned by club fighters (i'm not including Collazo, he's the man).

I mean yeah, Berto/Mosley is for the real WW title Floyd/Pac is for the #1 contender spot really. At the rate this is going Floyd is not going to fight Mosley and Pacquiao would never fight Mosley at 147lbs. So I'm sure they're both hoping for Berto to win. But no matter how Shane performs, hardcore fans will still make an argument that May/Pac should fight Shane. The fight should have started getting some hype by now.

It almost seems like nobody lately can remember that there are other good fighters & fight to be made!!I personally never really cared to watch floyd & Manny!! Berto-Mosley has my lips watering!!I can't wait to see if Mosley's gonna be the next B-Hop,or follow in Oscars footsteps!!Plus it's on hbo,not some crazy 75$ fight on ppv!!Warrrr Mosley!!:boxing::boxing:

if floyd doesnt fight pacman....the winner of berto-mosley fight would be pacmans next opponent.....

why dont you start a thread about it......that would start the hype

I mean yeah, Berto/Mosley is for the real WW title Floyd/Pac is for the #1 contender spot really. no not really Berto-Mosley - pac-pbf would have been eliminator fights and winners fight for the championship... anyways this fight should get some buzz, winners are legitimate potential PAC or PBF opponents...

And I'm excited for it *looooooooooooooooooooooooooool*

It's all about that blood test at the minute that issue will still overshadow the fight if not resolved

It's only a month away :boxing: I think the whole stressing Pac-May saga stand a little bit in the way... but I think start new year GB will start remebering that they got Mosley... and will start some hype... It's really good fight... two champions... one claims he is as good as he was 10 years ago... and the other guys wants to prove that he is the real deal... I give Berto a good chance of pulling it off... the only thing that really makes me feel bad is that Berto can defend properly... against Urango he throw a shot and held... against Collazo he got hit a lot... but Collazo is also more a straight boxer... very good fundamentals... Mosley still fights more like an boxer/puncher... if Mosley comes in with a good gameplan and a jab... he will make it an easy night for him... but if he fights like the Mosley before Naazim Richardson Berto has a good chance... I think heart won't be a problem... he digged deep in the 12th round against Collazo... if he's ain't ready condition wise for this fight then he will never be for any fight... put up or shut up time for Berto...

There wont be any hype! This Pacman/Floyd blood test controversy is going to consume every boxing fan until March 13th comes. People will watch the Mosley vs Berto fight on HBO but this blood test controversy has all the attention. It appears that the Pacman/Floyd fight is off for now, so die hard boxing fans will be anxious to see the Mosley fight with the anticipation that Mayweather will fight the winner of the Mosley/Berto fight.

Hype wont start until its the same month of the fight and maybe even a week in
