    The ref deducted a point on a bull**** tap on Berto even the biased ass hbo commentators picked that up,plus everytime Quintana sustained any offense he was warned by the ref for nothing,rewatch the fight and be a little more neutral this time around.why was there no point taken for bertos rabbit punches.

      He just got battered. and is now fighting at 154.

      So again Berto is the next best fighter in boxings most popular division it makes sense for him to be on HBO.

      Where were these people when Rocky Juraez is on PPV every month.

          What exactly do you see from Berto that in your eyes qualifies as the next big thing? Because the next big thing, in my book, beats everyone in their weight class on the world level and then successfully defends the title 5+ times. Since you think Berto can do this, let's hear it.

                No Collazo did not, it was a tough close fight which Collazo was doing well then Berto came on at the end to win the fight in the championship rounds.

                Usually people gain respect for fighter for showing that kind of toughness to dig deep and win a fight~

                    Exactly.....


                    This dude just fought two slick southpaw boxers back to back. When has Pac fought a slick boxer? People need to be consistent.

                      So HBO's supposed to showcase the entire WW division now?

                      90-95% of the fighters featured on HBO are either managed by Al Haymon or GBP. Williams, Arreola, Angulo, Dawson, etc. It's almost as if it's a prerequisite. Berto has talent, but clearly lacks skills and is a boring fighter that turns it into clinch fests.

                      Up until their upcoming fights they weren't showing Bradley, Khan, and until a month ago Alexander. And if you really think HBO shoudl showcase him because he's that good, Berto isn't better or higher on P4P lists, than 30 other fighters about 10-20 of them not on HBO.
