    That is a good comeback fight.

    But Carlos is taking a huge risk because it hard to comeback from 1 L it will be harder to comeback from 2 Lossess

      but the article is saying that Quintana is looking at a 3-fight plan, with the 3rd fight being Berto.

      I think it's a great idea, on both sides. Berto looks like the truth, but is in desperate need of a test. DiBella claimed that he wanted Quintana for this fight (July, v. Cosme Rivera), but that Carlos priced himself out. That usually translates to, Lou offered little more than a six-pack and a ham sandwich.

      It's a great crossroads fight, and IMO needs to happen by year's end. I don't think a loss does much damage to either fighter, reputation-wise, so as long as the money's right on both sides, neither can use the risk-reward angle to reject such a fight.

          Zab Judah has three losses in a row and people still want to see him.

            OK, I'll say this a second time -

            Quintana's first fight back would NOT be against Berto, if their gameplan pans out.

              Berto is a very strong fighter I think he will be a very succesful boxer.

                This would be a good fight for berto after he fights rivera on the 27th.
                I only hope he sorts his defence out because in his last fight on the spinks taylor undercard, berto looked very poor in defence and got caught flush by a journey man. I only hope he sorts this out and then he will be a force to not be taken lightly.

                  Too early for Berto, could be a dangerous fight. Let's see him against a few more C level fighters. We do not need another Michael Grant on our hands.

                    Danergous fight for both guys. I havent seen enough of Berto to decide a winner, but i will have by the time they meet.

                    Its a good matchup though. Perfect for B.A.D
