              Bad styles. Urango's Head-popping-out style makes it difficult to avoid headbutts, that may have been the problem as you saw 3 clash of heads in the first 5 rounds.

                he's just failing to turn the wrist on the jab... whether it's just a bad habit or intentional backhanding, i don't know.

                  yes he was...i dont know if its a fundamental glitch (i dont really recall him doing it previously) or if he just got lazy but he was backhanding for quite a bit


                  and for a crouching and lunging opponent, i was disappointed to not see that short uppercut/overhand right combo


                  Berto fought in spurts and didnt really show me anything new

                    Berto ripped off Hattons game-plan, **** isn't fan friendly. And I consider Berto a way better boxer then Hatton and he choose such a ****ty game plan last night its not even funny. His trainer sucks.
