    Not after the attack I refuted. But to change the subject:

    Yes...I've already put points up. But, I think it will be a closely run affair. IMO Ricky has the advantage of coming in with nothing to lose and everything to gain. Floyd has the burden. So this will help.

      Good, thanks for letting me know. We shall see how your mentality progresses towards Floyd Mayweather if (when) he beats Hatton.

        My "mentality" needs no progression towards Floyd. I think I understand exactly what he's about. There's a chance in this fight that Floyd has finally picked the wrong cherry.

          If he hasn't picked the wrong cherry and beats hatton and beats your prediction of the fight, you as a fan either give him his due credit or continue to belittle him in some kind of way.

          That's the mentality I was talking about. We shall see what you do after the results are out.

            Berto is serious. The two fights won't happen though. But he will hold a title. He can ****/box. And he's coming along beautifully. I think being knocked down was a good thing for him.

              Berto is not ready. He should stay away from those two monsters and beat up some more gatekeepers.

                Berto isn't ready yet. This would be a sparring session for Floyd. Don't get me wrong I like Berto, but it's too early in the day for those fights.

                  Yo, this is about andre berto's possibly being the mandatory for cintron (or, the far off chance of mayweather). what is this pissing matching going on in this thread for?

                    Berto spent the past two fights getting hit. If Estrada had more pop, he would have been in trouble.

                    Hell, if his corner didn't take a chainsaw to his glove, he might have been stopped by Cosme Rivera.
                    Maybe you missed where I said Cintron's power is overrated. His KO percentage is very deceiving. Most of his KO's were against guys who were no hopers. He lost to Margarito(badly). He had a very difficult time with Estrada. Berto has his problems and deficiencies, but he wins. I think this is a pick em fight.

                    Dare I say, that Cintron gets beat by guys who are tougher(Margarito) than him. I'd also say be gets beat by a guy who'd easily beat him to the punch. Most of the top 10 at ww fith that bill. Clottey, Williams, Berto, Mayweather, Mosley all beat him to the punch. Margarito would just tough it out and blast him back to babyland again. Cintron is overrated. He has 1 big fight under hgis belt, and he lost.
