Berto has potential, but Miguel will straight **** him up if they fight. I say Berto makes it to about the 8th round before the ref saves him from further damage.

I would love to see this fight. Good way to make sure Cotto finally learns how to defend against uppercuts. And good to see he's getting in there against a live opponent.

This is a good comeback fight for Miguel, it will get him the green belt and then Tony will take it away and be the new WBC Welter Champ!!!

I have my doubts that this fight will happen. No doubt Berto's uppercut and speed is a factor. I still think at this stage Miguel is too polished to lose this fight.

This is just an easy fight for Cotto if the fight happens...

[Silencers]

Would be a good fight, Cotto by knockout if it happens.

[Undefeated]

Yes make it!

Make it!

Yikes. Talk about a step up.

Yikes. Talk about a step up.

Indeed, I am a big fan of Berto. Though I think he would be very competitive, even more so than judah, I think he would ultimately be broken down by cotto. He is too young for this fight, Cotto is in his prime and appears to be hungry for Margarito again. Berto should save this fight for down the road.
