Angulo vs. Cintron in Talks For May 30 on HBO

[handler000]

Berto won a vacant belt. He is not really a champion.

Just a paper champ.

Just like Cotto...And his WBO belt..

Ha, ha, ha.....

Just like Cotto...And his WBO belt..

I always enjoy reading you posts about Cotto! Straight realness.

And damnit HBO, Judah does not deserve another shot at a title.

I agree, why in the hell does Judah get so many title shots when their are plenty of guys coming up the ranks that have earned a chance at title shots and do not get them. I am sick of Judah. Has not won a figth againts a legit opponent in ages and still gets called up for the title shot!

[B] The way they are keeping Berto sheltered doesn't give me confidence in his abilities as a prize fighter, especially if his people are not confident.

Good point. Kinda like what Arum is doing with Pavlik right now.

I think Collazo is a real test though- he's one of my favorite fighters cuz of his style and maybe he lost because he was out of shape, I had Berto winning the last 2 rounds. I just don't see Zab doing it. BUT, I would rather see zab than Urango who was outclassed by Arnautis, but got the draw because he hit with better punches. Berto is WAY too fast for that guy. Maybe they want to see if the Collazo fight took something out of their cash cow/hbo fixture fighter.

Exactly so if he dont wanna fight the best he should give up that title and fight bums if he wants to step up rematch collazo and lets see if this time you really win.

COSIGN!! Fight Collazo again, he will be in better shape and get in that ass!

tough test for Angulo he's there to be hit and kermit has a good punch and could possibly tko him if he hits him right and reopens that cut

I believe that most of us have overrated Cintrons Punching Power. If he can't hurt Angulo within 5 rounds he'll be on the floor crying like a baby.

That's why I said that. If Berto and his team is not confident in at least giving Collazo a rematch & moving down the ladder shows what they think of his chances against the top guys. He is supposed to be the next coming and after one defense, their looking to get him easy fights? Berto is being treated as a fraud and it will be up to him to stand up and tell his people to stop making him look bad. I think Berto may need a new trainer, like Freddie Roach but maybe Floyd Sr can help him more being that he teaches defense first and being that Berto is good offensively & questionable defensively, Floyd Sr could help him a lot because Berto is young.
