    you dont know how he will do against elite, to say hes a C class fighter is bull**** at this stage.
    I meant Estrada. Berto isn't C class lol, not with an offense like that. I think of the world phenom offensively, but he has gaping holes in his defense, and his recent opposition just proves to me that his camp feels the same way.

He is number two for the IBF and number one for the WBC. Clottey has a good chin and good skills, but he has no knockout power at all. Even Corrales moving up two weight divisions went the full distance with him and Clottey hit him a lot.
            Clottey stands right in front of you, blocking with his elbows and gloves. I think it's a decent fight for Berto.

              Strawberry Margarita better be glad Clottey hurt his hand because he was getting OWNED..

              Clottey's uppercuts were snapping Marge's head back like a PEZ DESPENSER..lol

                yea i remember distinctly... he was landing great shots ..threw combinations great.. and was deceptively quick..he stunned margarito once i think too.....after he landed 4-5 punch combination.

                Then you could see his hand broke and margarito took over.. and this was half way through the fight.


                I think Clottey whoops berto.
                Berto will stop Clottey..

                Soon as he covers up Berto will put him to sleep..

                  Estrada was a good win. Still, he's a C class fighter.
                  Estrada was hurting Mosley

                  That's something Cotto couldn't do..

                    If Berto has this chance he should go for it. Really whoever he's gonna fight for a title is gonna be tough in the WW division. It would be an interesting fight and even though I've been high on Berto I think Clottey would win this one on points.
