A warning to Floyd stans. You can't have it both ways regarding Mosley-Berto.

I actually think this will be an easier fight for Mosley than Margarito was. But just remember that the people who are saying otherwise can't have it both ways. You can't talk all this **** about how Berto is going to beat Mosley like saying Mosley doesn't know how to deal with technical fighters, and then when Mosley destroys him you automatically discredit the win. And I'll probably bump this thread after the fight is over with.
      Yup but I'm a pacfan and I favor Berto's chances. The Marg fight did not really convince me of Shane's resurgence. Plus, the inactivity of a 38 year old could be a deciding factor especially if Berto jumps on him fast. If Shane wins, props to Shane and I give him a very good shot of defeating Pbf (should the fight be made).

        There has been and there will be other fights that I will be more excited about than that one. It's a guaranteed distance fight at a more elite level than Diaz-Malinaggi. I want to stay on topic though.

          Who are these people who have hidden agendas? I only come across a handful of them and ignore them cos they're obviously idiots. You should do the same. I'm a Floyd fan and would love to see him fight Mosley- It's too early to say anything yet though. If Floyd-Pac is close there's probably gonna be rematch and I see Mosley-Berto as a close entertaining fight. Why do you think it will be easier than the Margs fight? It's tough to get any easier than winning every round en route to a devastating KO. Berto has handspeed and can box better than Margs. I'd say it'll be competitive.

            This is a comment by someone who is a fan of a certain fighter more so than the sport. If Mosley beat Berto and unified the titles, that would be the best time for Mayweather to jump at the opportunity to fight him before the WBC stripped him. No offense, but that's a dumb ass post. Mosley-Mayweather for the undisputed title would be huge even after Mayweather beat Pac, and it would do a **** load for Floyd's legacy.

              i think it will be a close fight,if the same mosley turns up who kod margo then bertos is in for a good beating and if the mosley who just sc****d past mayorga turns then he is in big trouble,for me it all depends on what ssm has left in the tank

                I need to find someone to bet with
                Yea bro I already got like 3 bets going. DC fight fan is pretty big on Peterson. So he might bet you.

                Also try Dominicano soy. I think he is going for Peterson in this fight.

                  I've been saying this for a very long time now. I'm not too interested in seeing Floyd dominate a fighter who no longer has the legs to catch up. You want to call for that, go ahead. Not my cup of tea. The only pleasure I'll get from it is saying, "I told you so!".

                    What if Mosley dominates Berto? That would be 2 top 10 WWs who Mosley would destroy. That fight still wouldn't be your cup of tea?
