I know Im in the straight minority here but Ill say it all day & night. I really think people are sleeping on Berto strictly because the guys he's been fighting are Southpaws. A ton of guys struggle against Southpaws no matter what level theyre on. However, if you put him in the ring right now with a righty, I think he looks night & day. I know everyone will say that Clottey is the harder fight and it isnt even close but I totally disagree. There is a reason why Cotto & Shane havent been in a rush to fight this kid. I still think his trainer will probably keep him from being super elite but I bet anything that he gives Cotto or Mosley hell right now. Thats why I think Mosley will go with Clottey. Clottey is much easier for Mosley as he doesnt have enough speed and he puts on the muffs too much. He also will always be missing something.
Berto will be young, hungery, and throwing lighting combos. Mosley doesnt want to deal with that right now. If he didnt have Naz in his corner then I would pick Berto all day but Naz makes Mosley the favorite and it may make Mosley kill him because Naz is 10x better than Berto's trainer. Just straight up man for man though, I think Berto gives Mosley hell and I would easily pick him over Cotto right now, easily. Seriously though, people need to stop jumping to conclusions when guys struggle with Southpaws. Its going to happened in most cases
