    There is a difference between being impressed with someone's win and someone having a good win. I agree with Berto I was not impressed with Mosley's win over Margarito because I was never high on Margarito being a good fighter in the first place. I do feel it was a good win for Mosley though.

    Berto has a lot to improve on in order to win this fight but he can win it. Mosley with his style looks best against fighters with limited movement and basic. Berto is none of those things.

    One thing for sure and two things for certain Mosley has a outrageous advantage in the knowledge and abilites of the trainers. I thought for a while Berto's corner was weak. I always feel that way if I constantly see a fighter going into fights with the same flaws and Berto has done that.

      And I'm not impressed with Berto's career so far. Nice "win" over Collazo.

        Berto is saying of lot **** he shouldn't be saying. Last time a fighter talked this much **** about Mosley, Mosley knocked him out (Ricardo Mayorga). Last fighter that talked alot of **** before that got his knocked out too (Fernando Vargas rematch). Mosley is not one to really go off with the mouth. He lets his fists do the talking. I thought his win over Margocheato was one a good one indeed. Mosley was the first dude to put him down and finish him.

        I never was a Berto fan and since I've been watching him he hasn't impressed me (Before and After having the title). I thought Collazo won that fight against Berto. It was a good step up for him and he showed some heart in the end, but that was it. His inside game was horrible and looks like he can only fight from the distance coming in and out.

        Since that fight (Berto-Collazo), he didn't show anything different in the Urango fight. He faught the same way that he always fights. People thought he was gonna knock Forbes out. I think HBO has hyped this guy up so much that its become a joke.

        Mosleys been itching to fight. Plus he knows if he has 2 titles at the same time (did at one time at 154), It'll make him the man at 147 and Floyd or Pacman will HAVE to fight him, if they wanna be known as the man at 147. Mosley wants the people to know that HES the man at 147, and one the guys in the way.... is Andre Berto.

        SSM all the way.

          Berto has a belt WBC and Mosely is the lineal WW Champ. Why should we give Berto props for taking this fight? He is going to make his biggest pay day yet and he is getting the opportunity to exchange with the P4P ATG in Mosely. Berto needs a fight like this IMO. I don't think he is going to win and I got E Points agsinst bets for Berto if you want hit me up.....Lefty

          Yeah but Berto chin is questionable. I mean Collazo was able to hurt him in the first round of their fight and maybe agin in the later rounds. He gasses himself out in every fight. Mosely has the fastest hands of any fighter Berto ever fought he has a IRON chin and his pedigree is far better than Berto's. My guess is Mosely will dig into Berto's china cabinent pretty early and we will see just how much heart Berto has....Lefty

            Berto is very confident that he can beat mosley ,he has the tools to do the job but just don't think he can overcome those overhand rights . I see those rights doing same damage as ssm did to Vargas .naazim will easily gameplan for berto style.he is more of a brawler..ssm likes that style .u have to outbox ssm to beat him.ssm has sooo much to fight for , and it starts with berto in 2010..I just want to a good TRUE welterwieight Championship fight ..

              Mosley is beatable but im not sure if berto is the man to beat him. Its a good step-up for andre and if he can produce, then i'd expect him to become a good champion at welterweight.

              I wouldn't be at all surprised if berto won. Before the margarito fight, mosely didn't look to good against mayorgya, despite getting the win!

                Well he beat Margarito without the loaded wraps. I am not impressed either.

                  i've been saying the exact same thing that berto said in this article. all of the commotion before the fight threw margarito off track and made things a little easier for mosley.

                      Roach does the same thing every time Pacquiao fights someone. But let me guess he can do it right?
