      alexander outboxes berto, but it would be a really tough fight cause berto is about 160 lbs on fight night. alexander is better off at 140 lbs.

        I'd favor Berto. Alexander stays on the inside too long. He'll go in, stay still and throw a combination and then pull out. That would be a death wish against someone like Berto. I also like how he adjusts later on in the fights. Quintana was controlling the early rounds, but he adjusted in the mid rounds and went for the kill. This was a much better Berto than the one we say in the Collazo and Urango fights.

        And triangle theories don't work. I can bring up at least 5 situations to prove that. And did Berto even land an uppercut against Urango? If he did then it wasn't clean because a clean one would have dropped him for sure.

          what you talking about berto was like 152lbs tonight that means alexander must be weighing near that even at 140.

            I know triangle theories don't always work but in the absence of other data it's all that we have to go by...so you gotta admit it's a bit intriguing that alexander destroyed urango like that

              Interesting fight. Berto has the size advantage no matter what though.

                alexander doesnt stay on the inside much. he uses sharp angles and turns his opponent. even if he does wtf is berto gonna do? hold him? alexander turns berto all night and makes him look foolish.

                  I'd go with Alexander. I think he's a bit more consistent, he's going to do his thing for 3 minutes every round and I think he'd outbox and out manuever Berto.

                      thats how mediocre a fighter he really is. i'd favor most of the top flight 140 lbers over him...except for khan. berto would kill khan.
