Andre berto vs timothy bradley

[Pullcounter]

Who wins it would be a good scrap.......why not make this fight happen?????

because berto is a 147 lber and should be fighting WWs and duck-storm is a 140 lber in a stacked division...there is no reason for timmah to move up.

[QUOTE=THE_BIG_HURT;8506784]if thats the case, i still think the outcome would be similar. and I by no means am trying to discredit timmy (just check out my sig) because I dont even like Berto but I feel Tim is a good 1 Division fighter but not a guy that will be able to jump around.

Also, I felt that i read somewhere that Berto was considering dropping down in weight? I could be mistaken but i felt like I read that on this site.[/QUOTE]

You read correctly. He wants to fight the top JWWs (Bradley, Alexander, Khan, Ortiz, Maidana) at catch weights of 143 or 144.

Oh ok thanks for clearing that up. Not a huge fan of catch-weights but I would be interested in these fights so I might be able to ease up.

Well if that the case, that's a big mistake on Berto if he willing to drop down...Berto should stay at 147 make the fighter come to him,,,he's earned that position...

IF Berto can make 140 he would easily be the best at that weight. I just don't think he can lose 7lbs of muscle and still be significantly the best. So at 147 easy Berto at 140 maybe Berto

I don't think so. Even if Berto effectively made 140 (which is impossible), then he would no longer have that size advantage that gave him a chance. Alexander would hurt him and Bradley would put on a boxing clinic. Khan? Well I don't know.

Berto would probably beat Victor Ortiz though...

I think Bradley wins for the simple fact that Bradley is pretty damn good on the inside and Berto has no inside game.

Yeah Berto's inside game is lacking.

Yup. That's where Collazo had so much success. I can see Bradley doing that all night. I think the fight would look somewhat like the Holt fight.

It's his fault, instead of working his craft in the gym between fights. He's at the club kicking it with little bow wow, a fighters needs to work his game not just train to get in shape for a fight.
