Comments Thread For: Andre Berto Focused on Putting Freddy Hernandez "To Sleep!"

[tredh]

Berto isn't going to fight anybody. I mean 1.2 mill for this Hernandez fight. Berto can fight 20-25 more Hernandez type of fights (on paper at least don't know Hernandez) meaning guys a lil better and some worse than Hernadez and end up making 20-25 million for his career. Thanks a MILLION HBO!!!

Berto has been shoved down our throats because Al Haymon thought he was going to be a superstar.

Now look at him, Berto brings about 10 people to his shows, and always seems to be fighting B level competition.

I saw him fight in Florida against Urango and I left the place because he was stinking up the joint. I changed the channel when he fought Quintana.

It seems like Berto's skill is getting worse instead of better. All he does his punch and hold. Looks more like a wrestling match.

berto better take hernandez seriously, cause hernandez is coming for him.,if berto wants to perform and leave the fans satsified then i hope he doesn't reduce his performance to hugging and holding..like he has before.i have hernandez beating him in late stoppage fashion or mid fight k.o.

berto better put this guy to sleep, sad to say but, i havent been too impressed ever since his fight with callazo.. he is still fun to watch but he needs to step up the level of competition or just fight more often. i think he doesnt fight so often because of his big money hbo contract. either way, hopefully being on an undercard and the least anticipated match of the night, he will be motivated perform better.. i would much rather seen him fight mosely than mora, and id still like to see that fight happen

You really think Berto is fun to watch? Did you enjoy the Urango and Quintana fight? Because those fights I thought were boring as hell. There should be warnings and point deductions for holding excessively. I can't stand guys who fight like Berto or Hopkins.

Don't get me wrong, Hopkins is one of the greatest fighters of this generation. But don't get me wrong, he is boring to watch.

And at the end of the day, this is about entertainment. And those guys do not entertain.

I don't know who Hernadez is I assume his record looks decent at a glance but Berto better be sure to look impressive.

To me impressive looking wins always help (no matter the opponent) and really Berto needs a string of impressive looking wins at this point.

I don't think Berto can do that with Hernandez. Against a Urango, he can lay eggs, but vs better fighters who aren't totally outmatched, he's fan friendly. Hernandez better than most give him credit for. I'm not sure if he's that much worse than say, the Marg that Pac is fighting.

Hernandez I think has a chance because though he isn't lightning quick he has decent boxing skills and good power while Berto who has tons of ability has poor boxing skills and awful timing. Berto is hit very easily for someone who has a significant speed advantage over every opponent he faces and he may possibly be chinny due to the fact that he was rocked by the two best fighters he faced(Collazo, Quintana). Its hard to say not about his beard but if he takes some flush shots from Hernandez that will telling.
