      This fight shouldn't get as much as Bradley-Alexander, it's simply not as big a fight. Berto has been getting overpaid for a while now, it needs to stop.

      If this fight does happen, I'm sure as hell picking Berto but man would this be the type of win Ortiz needs.

          berto/ortiz sux. HBO better not pay for this bull*****.

          dibella is a joke. berto/ortiz isn't doing better ratings than bradley/alexander. why won't dibella put berto in with cintron?
          Because there is a good chance Cintron knocks him out, thus ending the easy paydays for team Berto.

            Despite Berto fighting yet another 140 lb'er, i actually like Ortiz's chances in this fight. He could surprise everyone if this fight happens.

              Dibella is trying his best to find a good Fight for Andre they are out of options at the moment Cintron Pwill 2 might happen take him off the list this Ortiz fight should go down but its not going to happen Clottey is the next best option for him except he might be banned from HBO forever

                "...Ortiz is having trouble making 140..." HAH!!!! CALLED IT!!!!!!

                I remember wanting this fight to happen way back when Ortiz was still hungry and had that fight he had before Maidana. It seemed like a good fight back then...

                But now

                I hope Ortiz gets a new trainer or at least corrects this flaws just so the fight won't be an ass whooping.

                Prediction: Berto sticking and hugging his way to a UD

                  HBO needs to man up and force this fight. With that said, every offer is going to be considered low ball. Berto has made too much damn money for fighting bums. So, when a good fight comes around he is gonna ask for 1.5 million or so and his opponent will ask for a good chuck of change too. Berto has been babied. Either Berto is gonna have to take a pay cut or HBO is gonna need to part ways with him. They messed up bad with him.

                      Pac vs Berto is a great fight and he didn't overprice himself out that fight and remember he was going to fight Mosley before the Earthquake in Haiti he's been trying step it up lately he wanted to fight Cotto to and that fight was rejected
