Berto vs. Mosley for Jan. 30th – Unless “Money” Steps In

[WESS]

No not because of that. I just think Cotto is a lot stronger
and more diligent than the 3 previous fighters Manny has
fought. Cotto is not that past it that he should allow
Manny to over whelm him. If he does then it is what it is
but over all I think that Cotto should be able to take this
one if he comes in prepared and studied Manny.

Cotto vs The bigger Clottey, Marg and Mosley are all better and bigger than Pacs last few fights. Fact. They hit harder (Clottey/Marg with possible plaster gloves), Mosley's faster and can box very well.

Nothing Pac brings to the table will match what Cotto has already experienced in his last few fights. Ask dip **** if Pac's such a WW why isn't he fighting at the WW limit???? As I said before tell dip **** to listen to Emanuel Steward about a minute into the 9th round of the Mayweather vs JMM fight.... he might learn something.

I like Pac but JMM technical skills are better than that of Pacs and Mayweather just schooled JMM. Pac will look a fool vs Mayweather. IF people want to see Mayweather in a real challenge VS top (REAL) WW's they will want Cotto/Mosley in the ring. Not little man Pac who at the end of the day when its all said and done will be the smaller man and we will be right back here talking about how Mayweather beat up the much smaller/slower/weaker man yet once again.... happens every time. I like Pac but he is highly over rated at this point.

I agree...that sums it up pretty well...e/c Pac isn't overrated...I just think what he did to JMM...isn't far off from what he will do to pac. I honestly don't have any desire to see the two fight. My interest is in Mayweather vs Cotto/Mosely...more so Mosely.

I think this is a good fight for Shane after being off for so long.
He can whip Berto overrated ass and get another belt and strengthen
his position in the mix of mega fights. I think after all this time that
Mosley has been out of the ring if he fought Floyd right away he
woud get humiliated. Shane should have had like 2 more fights
post Antonio Margarito.

We saw how good Floyd looked after his long layoff. Maybe Mosley could use another fight, but I don't think his time off from the ring would affect a fight with Mayweather. Maybe he could use another fight. But another fight could add more mileage to his body. The Floyd-Mosley fight needs to happen asap because Cotto and Pacquiao are busy fighting each other.

Floyd Mosely should happen in December.
Or early Jan. Jan 30th feels to long.
I mean not that long but he should just man up

I really feal like this is a bad fight for Shane.Berto may be a little overrated, but he has something that gives older fighters fits,youth and speed. Shane, like Hopkins and Roy Jones,will always look brilliant against slower plodding fighters.But they struggle with the speedsters. Shane would look better against Clottey.

I would like to see Mayweather fight Mosely, then fight the winner of Pac-Cotto.

Its cutting it kinda close since he just had a fight, but I think Floyd can pull it off, doubtfull the Marquez fight took much out of him.

[MANGLER]

Kick his ass SSM.

I don't see how a fight with Berto could raise Mosley's clout other than the green hardware. Who the fuck is Berto? A guy who would've gotten kod by a 10 loss journeyman who was destroyed by Zab Judah and Alfredo Angulo had that glove situation not been in play.

Another thing I want to make clear is that even though I respect JMM a great deal more than Antonio Margarito that I was a **** load more impressed with Mosley destroying Margarito than Floyd going the distance with a blown up Featherweight. These Floyd fans are complaining about Mosley chasing money fights, but he deserves them a hell of a lot more than Floyd does.

Since Isaac Hlatshwayo is the weaker WW champion, most likely Gayweather will look to take that belt away. Gayweather will never challenge Mosley, Berto and Cotto. Also he will keep his attitude to charge over 60% of the share of PPV to avoid any encounter with any boxer that will beat him, and that’s the boxer some people call the best P4P in the world? Gayweather is a joke surrounding by a bunch of clown. Now Gayweather using his father as one of the one he needs to sit down to decide his future"peeleft:.

He's got no choice but to challenge a true WW. For almost 2 years now he's heard the same thing, "you never fought a true WW". I think he's out to prove his worth at WW and will take a couple of the "big" guys on.

The Mosley fight seems like a done deal. I don't buy Mosley's "spontaneous outburst". He'll run from Cotto if he beats Manny, but I think they'll eventually meet. Berto would pose no threat to Mayweather so he will consider him as well, especially since PBF has a fetish for them green WBC belts.

I think we can all agree that Cotto has bigger fish to fry if he beats Manny (Margarito rematch) and Floyd would be well advised to wait for Cotto until after that, if Cotto wins.

In the end, everybody's gonna have trouble beating the Mayweather that fought Saturday night, EVERYBODY.

Congratulations, Shane.
