    Who should Berto Make his Move Against?!?

    So Berto was biding his time, amassing experience in the most stacked division (along with Lightweight) in all of boxing, getting ready to make his move, when all of a sudden a fight against an ordinary b-level fighter (at best) gets ordained a title fight for the Mayweather's vacated WBC belt.

    He wins with an impressive victory. Now all of a sudden, he HAS to fight a bonafide contender. Not saying I don't think he's ready, cause he does have mad skills, but of the top challengers, who do you think his first fight should be and why?

    Do you wanna see him ease into the elite by tacking a Collazo or Clottey/Judah winner near the bottom of the pool, or go head first into a showdown with the likes of a Cotto or Paul Williams... You decide.

    Any one in the bottom half of the top ten. Collazo, Cintron, those guys would test Berto in a lot of ways and would get him ready for the Cottos and Margaritos of the world.

      I voted for Collazo. I think it would be a good test for Berto. If he wins, he amasses elite slickster southpaw experience which would prepare him to unify two of the titles against judah, should judah beat clottey (which is certainly not set in stone). I also wanna see Luis get his shot. It will certainly be a challenge for Berto and may the best Welter win!

            I heard Collazo might get a shot at Williams. Kind of like payback for helping Williams prepare for Quintana.

              I would say Cintron or Collazo. Collazo is less dangerous but has a style to make a lot of guys look bad. Kermits style is suited for Berto, but he's got to look out for that power. all and all he's gonna get thrown to the wolves swooner or later as this division is stacked with tough dangerous fighters.

                well, I think he could beat clottey, judah, collazo and cintron. I guess clottey/judah winner or cintron would be the best bet to get him recognition without facing a big risk fighter.

                  Cintron or winner of Clottey Judah. He'd beat any of the 3, and the fight after that would be a real fight.
