Comments Thread For: Öner Responds To DiBella's Dismissal Of Berto-Aydin

Collazo
Urango
Quintana

That's who Berto fought to get and defend his welterweight belt. 1 nobody, 1 lightweight, 1 jr welter, and 1 faded former titlist. You could argue Collazo is the only legit welter he has defended his welter title against- and he barely beat him. Berto needs to fight someone legit to prove himself, fighting another jr welter in Kotelnik does nothing for him. I won't be mad if he honors his mandatory against Aydin (who is exciting if nothing else) but after that fight a legit welter contender for gods sake.

Lol, Aydin barely beat Ouali and Jo Jo Dan and was lucky to KO Bonsu, how cool is that?

berto acten like a diva he aint **** always getting hurt he has no chin he got dropped by quintana in the first round like this kid gets gifts and for no reason fight collazo or cotto and thats it

Berto has all the tools to outbox and even KO Selcuk. Selcuk has just one chance, and thats a KO or to outbrawl Berto. In Bertos fight vs Urango he showed how to clinch and break the rythem of Urango. Aydin has better punching variability and a better and underrated handspeed, but nothing else which Berto hasn't seen.
Selcuk fights with his heart, not with intelligence and therefore it should be an easy fight for Berto if he would accept the challenge. But I do think now, that he lacks heart and I also think that Bertos chin is not the best. It would be a exiting fight and it would also help Berto to become more popular as a boxer.

Just my opinion.

[NECK SNAPPER]

Berto should fight collozo again at least its a good fight.
Close the mouths of everybody who will always say he lost
to collozo.but dibella saying that makes it look like there ducking an opponent who deserves his chance .

Aydin is a good boxer and well-known in Turkey, your post is garbage

What is garbage is 1 protected fighter is trying to get out of fighting another pampered protected fighter. Its like Andre Berto of America vs Andre Berto from Turkey.

Thanks for mentioning the other Not-Tyson Tyson. Forgot about him since he doesnt fight anymore and all.

I would have like to watch this fight, Berto would have been the winner, but Aydin would have make it a slugfest.

[Blue Heffner]

The problem is that DiBella knows they'll have to go to Turkey to make any money. He doesn't want that. Even if Berto fights Kotelnik, he would have made more money going to Turkey. American fighters don't want to fight in another country for various reasons. That's why I always give more props to the ones that go.

Shame on Berto if he fails to take this fight and vacates.

[el rey]

Damn, it's kinda more obvious than ever why he priced himself out with Mosley.
