    Its **** like this why I never doubt any of Hausers articles.

    People wanna **** on Margarito/Pac which is actually a fans fight, yet they let what HBO and GBP do year after year slide like its not even happening.

    I wonder if most fans are aware of the chicanery that goes on here.

    How is Berto even a champion. Aks yourself that question and you'll fall down the rabbit hole.

    Mosley for his part needs to go. He's beyond shot and I doubt many fans still wanna see him twitch and feint for 12 rounds whilst being pummeled into submission.

      He also got dropped in that fight too. Cott's Jab will knock you back and the way Berto has his hand hes open all day for Cotto's jab. Thats why I think he could control the fight with his jab.

        Berto is pretty vulnerable, and gets hit too mcuh.
        He's lost every important fight he's ever been in.

        There is no getting around it... no re-wording it to better fit your argument.

        Every. Major. Important. Fight. He has lost, and done it to himself.

        His best win is Judah........ who literally QUIT in that fight.

        Don't even mention Corrales.

        Now I am going to FAVOR him over the unbeaten Berto for the WBC WW title?



        Probably.......... not.

          He was hit to the back of the head and was ruled a slip.. and rightfully so.


          Yeah.. well... Cotto's earmuff defense isn't exactly a steel curtain is it?

          If Berto is open for Cotto's jab, then Cotto is open for Berto's uppercut.

            I'd pick Clottey over Berto as well.

              bertos best wins are a beyong shot Quintana, Collazo, and a jr WW who just got knocked silly. Berto could have lost the Collazo fight like Clottey lost to Cotto, the only diffence is that Cotto is mcuh better than Collazo.

              Berto hasn't even been in an important major fight, and basically had the title handed to him after Floyd retired.

              Sorry, but I will chooes the guy I have seen fight and do well against the much better fighters.

                Clottey wins every fantasy fight and loses every real one.

                  They are still better wins than Clotteys wins...

                  I'll choose the guy who fights not to lose, than the guy who fights TO lose.

                    I had him losing to Collazo. Which is why he never gave him a rematch. Obvious.

                    You gotta give him props for the Cotto fight. Anywhere but MSG and he probably gets the nod.

                      Clottey was the underdog in every fight he lost, minus the DQ. Also looking past names and focusing on styles one can see that Berto could lose to Clottey.
