    Andre Berto is on is "DIVA" grind right now. He thinks too
    highly of himself. I hope Hlatshwayo KO's him if/when they meet.

        It's really HBO's fault for overpaying Berto.

          Damn, i'm half way to being legally blind and even i can read "$750,000 for the full fight" which means that Berto and Hiatjhdgklj will have to split up 750k it's not 750k for Berto. I guess it's not about reading it's about comprehending what you're reading.

          Good for Berto for not taking the fight, the fight makes no sense and he's a Champion and can wait for a bigger fight. Besides Hiatwhatever is a no name and is only known to the hardcore boxing public. Put yourself in Berto's shoes for a sec and think about the business side of things. If not then just continue being dumb fans and ***** about boxers decisions

            Bingo. They overpay everybody though, so when you do that, you cant expect someone to take less, especially if theyve been winning.

              That's HBOs fault for always over inflating the market and cowering to big-time promoters to pony up more cash and not get any big returns from it

              Hopefully this will change the culture of the sport for the better and the hypejobs calm down a bit

                How much is Berto expecting to make for fighting a no name guy?

                    but is it really smart in the long run for Berto to just sit out and wait around till after Mosley fights?

                      I don't understand why Berto doesn't just fight this guy and take that payday, unify a title, and then he would have that as leverage to get more money for a fight against Mosley. But this still does not mean that a Clottey-Mosley fight is called off? Does it?
