Andre Berto - Superb prospect but should he...

[SkillspayBills]

Berto's frame seems to be much to big to make 140, or at least be effecient at the weight. I think he would be weight drained and would gas by the end of the fight. That beinsaid if he COULD make that weight he would probably tear through everyone there.

His time will come he needs to fight a B or B- level welterweight soon. He's running through most of these no-name guys now. Soon he has to fight a Collazo, Judah, Margarito level fighter. He's not ready for Floyd, Cotto, or Mosley though IMO.

Those three guys you listed could very well tear him up at this stage, to be honest. Judah would give him fits, as well as Collazo.

I'd rather see him in against a slightly safer fighter like Oktay Urkal.

Yeah I think your right RightHandLead. Judah would probably fade though. He could face Clottey. Urkal would probably be a safe opponent though.

Do you remember seeing Cosme Rivera flooring Berto with that uppercut? Now we both know that Judah is known for his even uppercut.. and we know that he ran through a much more prime version of Rivera, too.

Urkal would be perfect imo, because he would challenge Berto and most likely go the distance, but at the same time- he's the kind of guy who wouldn't make you pay too badly for messing up. Berto is developing still, and against Urkal he'd have room to make a few mistakes (which he still does).
