Why not a Berto v Clottey?

[Double A 215]

Because Berto will ask for like over 2 million in that fight.

And now cause Clottey got paid against Pacquiao he's gonna think he deserves a least a million.

No way HBO puts up over 3 mill for a fight between two prima donnas.

I dont care about the figures... IMO Clottey is a better fighter so I wouldn't take 500K to fight a guy whose getting 2Mil and I know Im better than him either... Thats 80/20 come on man...

[DR.ORGYY]

clottey would beat his ass.............

Berto vs Clottey won't happen due one of these two reasons. One, Berto's a b@@@@ a## motherf##### who ducking everybody. Or, after Clottey's abmissmal non effort against Pac (Which pissed off everyone except for Arum), HBO isn't going to show him on their network anymore. It's certainly one or the other.

Neither one of them are worth a million for one fight but they'll each ask for more.

The question was asked, and that is the answer.

or maybe its because clottey is pricing himself out of fights by asking for half a million dollars??? i mean come on does clottey deserve half a million dollars after that last performance??? i dont think so...

Clottey is an established guy with a resume that shits in Berto's mouth.

If Berto is getting 1.25 mill from Hbo, Clottey deserves twice that amount.

Go watch Nickelodeon.

Berto versus Clottey or watching paint dry.


I'd watch the paint dry.

[Brutal Honesty]

Why the hell Berto fighting fighting a nobody.

being brutally honest,

because al haymon doesnt want to risk berto losing to someone like clottey. berto is being groomed to be a backup plan to either manny & floyd. if you were berto or handling berto you have crafted & built berto within site to fight a pacquiao floyd caliber fighter. why risk the carefully crafted investment by pitting him against clottey? That's why berto is fighting a nobody on hbo.

[M.I Truth ?]

Lou Dibella who promotes Berto and used to promote Clottey doesnt like the fight. Also Clotttey is moving up to 154lbs.

Because Clottey would son the **** outta Berto.

People forget that Clottey lost a controversal decision to Cotto, Barely lost to Margarito when he was streaking, crushed Judah and until Pacquiao, had never been clearly beaten.

Now I understand Clottey is a mental midget so to speak, but that still doesn't take away from his abilities (such as great D, solid straight right hand, and one of the best Left hooks at the WW division).

Son is the right word. He would manhandle Berto and acquaint him with the realities of world class boxing in the WW division.

Something Berto is trying desperately to avoid.
