    I still don't think Berto is ready at all.

    Clottey is definately deserving of another shot at a title IMO.

    A better list of opponents for him than Berto are (who don't currently hold a title belt):
    Mosley
    Williams
    Judah
    Collazo
    Cintron

    Clottey's accuracy will have a festival with Berto's lack of defense.

      They are doing this fight so they do not have to strip Margarito of his belt to fight Cotto....


      Smart move by Arum.....



      Berto Is going to Upper Cut Clottey to dead...!!!

        1. This fight is happening because they ARE stripping Margarito if he faces Cotto.
        2. Clottey is going to kick Berto's ass. I usually don't make predictions as bold as this one, but Berto's defense is horrendous.
        3. Your signature is weird... I definately thought it was stretching to the other side of the screen because it cuts in half. Weird.

            Ya right, P-dub, Carlos and Mosley would decision Clottey.

              Clottey is a solid fighter,but man is he overated on this board,people act like he has ko power,IMO,a huge opinion,he doesnt,i think Berto is ready for Clottey,and i think Berto will win UD,Bertos defense isnt good,but he can keep the distance well,and never gets tired,Clottey on the other hand,has good defense,but no stamina,he gets tired quick,and fights in spurts

                I don't have much money to lose but I'm gonna bet on Clottey to beat Berto if they do fight, because that's how confident I am in him beating Berto

                  Estrada was hurting Mosley...that's something Cotto couldn't do..

                    I don't think the young guy is ready, defensively. But, who knows how much he can progress up until fight time. If he hooks up with a defensive specialist then we may see the next great ww champ. With that being said, if the fight goes official I got something on Berto.
