    he knows he cant handle the pressure of the elite @ 147.. .thats why...

      This is a guy who told me 2 years ago that making weight was the hardest part of boxing, now he's going to try and make 140? I'm positive that it won't happen.

        It's like all this sissy talk started to happen after he won that paper title.

          I really think this is just all talk from DiBella, I don't think he'd risk his fighter getting weight drained to make 140.

            Why are you exposing Berto like that.

              I'm not exposing a damn thing that anyone who looks at his body wouldn't already gather. He's built like a running back, making 140 pounds would be absolutely unnatural.

                definetely agree with you. People who are saying he could do this dont seem to realize how light 140 is. Looking at berto you would think he is a 154 fighter. Just because he is 5'7, 5'8 does not mean he can make 140. Built like a running back is correct.

                    What's with your tone. No need to get macho.

                      I was thinking the same thing LoL. Williams just made a few threats and now Berto is going down to 140. The problem is Berto's shaky chin is going to be even worse at 140 because he would be severely dehydrated making the weight. Andre already looks huge at 147 with a lot of muscle I'm not sure he can make 140 without dying.
