    HBO overpaying Berto agian

    Purses for the fighters on Saturday's HBO card: Marquez $1.4 mill, Katsidis $530K, Berto $910K, Hernandez $75K, Caballero $200K, Litzau $50K.

    Andre Berto is gonna make more money than Katsidis, Hernandez, Caballero, and Litzau combined.

    Berto 910k to all others combined 855k. This is crazy. HBO please stop wasting your HBO money on Andre Berto especially if he is fighting boxers we dont want him to see. You guys had to beg to get him a fight with Hernandez for this weekend and you overpaid him.

    Is that the same Hernandez who was getting his ass kicked by Roberto Garcia? Damn, can someone pay me 1 million dollars to fight him? Roberto Garcia was on his way to a KO win over Hernandez before the fight was stopped, I know damn well Berto is going to KO Hernandez. This is the same Hernandez who fought an ancient midget in Corley.

        Is it Berto's fault that HBO is ran by dumb asses? If you could fight a cherry-picked opponent to make you look insanely good and you're getting paid about a Million to do it. Would you do it too?

            Berto getting close to one million vs hernandez getting 75k? This is why boxing can be criticized.

                They could show all the heavyweight title fights for a year, for the price of one Berto undercard showing agaisnt a complete bum.

                  Berto should get 200k tops. He sucks and has little to no fans.
