    i disagree with that!!!! Berto is still green and has not been battle tested or chin tested .. Matter of fact berto been dropped by a lesser opponent b4 (cosume rivera round 6 & was hurt,,and got saved by the bell)... He would be taken into deep water and drowned....mosley vs berto ,,would be just like trinidad vs vargas or marquez vs diaz!!!! Tough and entertaining but the veteran would take him at this point and time.

          Don't see that happening but hey, father time may be catching up with Mosley. For me that would be a spectacular upset seeing as I view Berto as a very limited fighter. But who knows, you might be right.

          Regarding matchups, I think risk averse Mayweather is going to target Berto precisely because he knows he is a limited fighter.

            Well normally I would not make that type of prediction. In this case though I just have a really big gut feeling that Mosley's legs are totally shot. I also think he knows this and that is why he is looking for that one big last fight.

            I feel someone who is mobile can beat him. I could be totally off base and completely wrong here and Shane has turned back the clock on father time. My gut, for now at least, just feels this way.

            Right now I think it is Manny himself that can cause Floyd a lot of trouble. Manny is awkward, fast, has power and endless stamina. He has the type of style that can give opponents grief period. Shane on the other hand, is your textbook aggressive boxer that Floyd could prepare for much easier.

              This fight aint happenin, guaranteed.
              1. Fighting Mosley is not in floyds comfort zone.
              2. Floyd will do/say anything to dodge mosley. "I aint givin him no money, he disrespected me on ma interview" -bet u anyhting this is gonna be floyds card.
              3. Floyd doesnt give a **** about titles or belts, hes in it for the money.
              4. Floyd knows he cant beat mosley.

                  5. Floyd has no balls!
                  6. Mosley doesn't fit the profile: smaller, slower, etc.

                      if they build it up right... same kinda promotional push as floyd/jmm... this could become the SRL v. Hearns of this era.
