Andre Berto Vs Joshua Clottey

[ny123]

why is berto chin bad? never been koed. hes been hurt a couple times but its boxing who hasnt been hurt ever? is there some special meter yall judge chin off of?

i have seen him go down against a couple guys he had no business getting hurt against cosme being one of those guys. i shouldnt say he has a bad chin though your right about that but its highly questionable to me.

Naw.. Theres a reason it's illegal to hit back there. It shuts you off. I think it just shut him down for a spit second. He showed no signs of being hurt when he got up.

behind the ear is not illegal. on the back of the neck towards the unprotected brain stem is illegal.

Joshua Clottey would get beat by a dominant UD. The guy doesn't throw **** and sits in his lil shell all night. He would throw a lot more obviously against berto then he did against Pacquiao but he isn't active enough to win a UD over Berto. Andre would win rounds easy..

He only sits in his shell against guys who pressure him for 12 rounds with enough power, like Margo and Pacquiao. He'd come out and fight against Berto and it would be very interesting. They should definitely make it happen. Although Clottey probably ruined his chances with HBO. He should have never signed to fight Pacquiao. He should have let Foreman do it.

what kind of logic is that?
should temple shots or shots directly on the chin be illegal too? those punches shut you off.
punches to the back of the neck are illegal becuz the brain stem is unprotected

Why do you not like Berto so much. He's a nice dude, and 26-0... Quit downplaying him so much.. Not just you but everyone.

Punches to the back of the head are illegal.. If you didnt know that then Im sorry. That punch was well behind the ear....

i dont hate him. i just know he's not as good as his record suggests.
he's 26 y/o, hes still highly unskilled and his style sucks to watch.

no, the punch was behind the ear. not on the back of the neck. i think it hurt berto and it couldve easily been ruled a KD like manny said.

A good test for Berto. Berto has good boxing skills, but he tends to fight his opponent's fight. If he tries to box Clottey, he can win an easy decision.
