    Should hbo cut ties with berto?

    I mean hbo is investing alot of money in berto,And he cant even draw
    crowds and his tv ratings suck.Andre berto got paid nearly 2 million dollars
    for his last fight and got bad tv ratings.berto has talent no doubt but
    lets be honest,He's boring Imo. hbo should invest in juan ma lopez,Mike
    jones,Alfredo angulo,Devon alexender,paul williams.What yall think.

    It must suck to be an undefeated world champion like Andre Berto because there is always somebody hating on you. Did you see Bertos last fight? Did you see what he did to former champion Carlos Quintana? Newsflash: Carlos Quintana & Williams are 1-1.

        If he keeps fighting good, solid fighters then no.

        HBO really shouldn't have spoiled Berto though, they paid too much for some of his fights.

          Yeah i saw it bro,And he got knocked down in the first and clinched
          his way into a boring fight.Carlos struggled real hard to make weight in
          that fight,And had trouble in his last fight b4 berto.And he got close
          to 2 mill for that.I'm hearing hbo is pushing for a jones-berto fight,and
          berto is not to happy about that.

            I agree bro,And hbo was aiming for sept or october for a mosely-berto
            showdown,But berto wanted a 50-50 split which messed it up.Now hbo
            wants a jones-berto fight,And berto dont like that idea.
            lou is pitching the berto-cintron fight to hbo,Which cintron dont deserve.

              This right here. It was pretty enjoyable. Seeing Quintana outbox him at first, but then a few rounds later Berto adjusted and landed huge shots. I don't see why he got bad ratings.

              But I do agree that HBO shouldn't spend as much money on him. He gives them nothing in return, since he can't draw flies to s**t and gets low ratings. I know I disagreed with Burner before, but I take it back. Berto should go for the paper titles. Maybe being a unified champ will hype him up a bit more and give him better opportunities.

                  Yes, he's never going to be a star and he's never going to be a big draw. I don't see him beating any of the top guys in boxing.

                  He has no personality, no charisma, etc.

                    Well bro,Berto dont have that option.Jan Zaveck agreed today to fight
                    his mandatory,Sum polish fighter.It's either mike jones or cintron which
                    imo,He could lose to both.PS he always gets bad tv ratings and draws
                    bad crowds.
