    Berto -500 on sportsbook?

    what a joke.. Berto may have lost the first fight, now he is a sure thing? If i had money to my name i would take those odds, as i feel urango has a decent chance to pull off an upset tom night.. yes i know berto is the more skilled guy, and he should win tom, but ill put down a bill to win like 380 on urango if i could. thoughtz?

          I wouldnt, not on Urango, slow unbalanced footwork, mostly because he is a natural right hander. Coming up in weight, fought to a draw with Arnaoutis, really lost to Ben Rabah, Hatton showed there is more than one way to beat him.

          Berto just needs to keep turning Urango, Urango has bad balance and is a tenative puncher, again because he doesnt have sure footwork, Berto's biggest scare is that he has shown to tire late in fights, other than that and a KO punch landing he should win.

            great analysis, i agree but.....berto is unproven to be a legitimate elite WW... he looked like a hype job in his first real test....urango has the cliched "mexican heart" whatever descent he is, a guy like that is always dangerous, and your accurate anlysis is trumped by the fact that berto has done nothing to warrant such a huge favorite as a -500 bet.....

              Berto should win this with ease, he is simply the better all around fighter.

                  Urango isnt a proven elite junior welterweight let alone a proven welterweight himself. That "hype job" gave Hatton all he could handle, another 140 fighter trying to move up as Urango is here, Collazo didnt look bad before he hurt his hand early against Mosley either.

                    You're talking about Collazo? the guy that held his own with Ricky Hatton and Sugar Shane Mosley? that guy?

                    Don't confuse Urango with Collazo.
