everytime i hear berto in a fantasy matchup i really like the idea. i could see this being a dynamite fight. that being said berto only fights blown up LW and JWW.
solid fight
berto beats him up at this point in my eyes and wins a decision
he's way too fast with his feet and on another planet in terms of speed of hand
but maybe canelo drops the bomb on berto
he's a big boy certainly.
and he can bang hard as **** for a 20 year old
i wouldnt be surprised if he walked into the ring at 170 if they fought at 154
i'm thinking goldenboy puts canelo in with a few more b level fighters before they put him in against a real live animal
maybe a year or so at least.
Hate to say it, but all the waiting for a big name fight is really hurting Berto's career. A fight with Alvarez would at least keep him in the public eye, plus i think he could win it.
Agreed but I think Ortiz should do the trick for now. I'm just wondering who the next opponent will be after that...
maybe, maybe not. the kid is 5'8 1/2 and Alvarez is 5'9, that's hardly a difference. I wouldn't mind this fight at a catchweight, yes I said catchweight. Berto might be at too much of a disadvantage @ 154 unless he thinks he can do it (i know he's weighed up to 162 before, you gotta ask him about that) I'd take this fight at 151, it's a good win for either and propels their careers, i think.
i aint gonna front like berto hasn't picked on juniors and as if Alvarez hasnt picked on welters, maybe they're made for each other. at 151 neither is really gaining much, berto's big enough and Alvarez won't be 154. but it doesn't matter, Haymon won't let Berto get in the ring with Alvarez.
no catchweight needed..bertos a big dude..him and alverez are bout the same height and berto hydrates to over 160 at 147
Well I don't know anything about Canelos chin so I won't say knockout, but the superior hand speed, power, Berto likes to bang so it would make for an exciting fight, based on the fact that Cotto, Ndou and Hatton were able to land, Berto would land at will, also would be a good test for Berto since people seem to think he has a weak chin. the only problem.is Berto might be too short for light middle

nice fight...I've been accused of hatin' on Andrea too much...but I feel like I've been calling a spade a spade....dude is in the Al Haymon witness protection program and has been defending his WW strap against JWW dudes...smh.....BUT I can see him giving the kid a hard time and possibly stopping him....I would cheer for Canelo but would put my money on Andrea...I wouldn't mind losing money on him...I really wouldn't :lol1:
No thanks. I want Berto to stay at 147 and wait for Khan and Bradley to come up.

cotto beat mosley, margartio ko'd cotto, mosley ko'd margarito Triangle theories are for fools. they have never existed in sports. They show nothing. What were you saying when Corley and Torres made cotto do the chicken dance? Berto is not stronger than canelo. One of canelo's thighs is bigger than both of berto's combined. Canelo is built like a beast and he's only 20. I'm sure you were the same type to say amir khan is weak, exposed, overhyped, no chin after he got knocked out.
didn't use a triangle theory, was making a statement about his overrated power, He is not stronger than Berto. I'm not a Cotto Fan so I don't see the point in you making that statement. Of course Khan was exposed and yes his chin is weak, he did step up.his stamina. once again Berto is too fast and strong, his uppercut would send Canelo to the canvas, and no Canelo does not have a better resume. Berto has to fight mandatory and whom ever Dibella puts in front of him. People tend to solely base their opinions on a fighters resume and one or two close battles, I mean these are professional boxers they are suppose to be at a comparable level as the boxer they are facing. Berto was younger in the Cosme fight, yes he struggled, but pulled it out. Collazo is a good boxer who brought something different to Berto, one again Berto found a way to win and beat Collazo on the inside. Try watching the boxers abilities, Berto has a lot of natural talent and skill, and still has some to learn, like footwork and his defense. He has only been flash KD, so you really can't say he ha a bad chin. Canelo does have nice natural talent and his is skilled and could only get better, but to me he is over hyped. has a long future and plenty of time to either prove me wrong or right, but as of now Berto wins with his speed and power. IMO
Power? there is a handful of people who have knocked out Ndou in under 4,I mean Malignaggi knocked him down twice, Hatton has 3 KO loses all 6 rounds and under. He is a little overhyped, he better not call out Kirkland, Cotto, Williams, Angulo or Cintron. Berto is too fast, accurate and strong.

Berto went life and death with rivera and collazo. Berto has also been put on his ass. Canelo would whoop berto's ass he's to strong and too much of a brawler for berto. Canelo's resume at 20yrs old ****s on berto's.
