Andre "The Hatian Sensation" Berto Fans Roll Call!!

[DrewWoodside]

Yet he has not pursued the fights

Plus every fighter says that, but its the ones the actually pursue it that deserve praise

I've yet to hear a fighter call out the bottom of a division, so unfortunately words without action aren't going to cut it.

[Eastbay Giant]

True and also his biggest fight which was vs Collazo was one most people think he lost. The other woulda been vs Mosley , but he pulled out just days before the fight.

So does that make it acceptable for Pacquiao to fight Mosley coming off a loss and a draw, when Berto has the WBC strap and is willing and ready to defend it @ 147?

and

Cotto fighting Mayorga is a flat out joke. Mayorga isn't even ranked.

[DrewWoodside]

yup and a fight vs cintron a fighter in his own stable he didn't pursue at all

I'm not going to act like Cintron is some beast, but I think that fight would have told us a lot about Berto and been very competitive. What's sad is Berto(at least to my knowledge) responded to any of Cintron's taunts or call outs.

[Russian Crushin]

The fact that he hasnt pursued Cintron is a perfect example

Thats a great fight

Even if you don't agree with these current fights.. They've fought many top flight opponents already. Berto has not. If the three of them retired tomorrow, 2 of them are heading straight to the HOF. Take a wild guess which one doesn't.

Cotto is at 154, Berto is not ranked there either

Mosleys draw is better then bertos last win. He needs to forget about Pac

When you get quiet around a guy who hopped out of a ring and earned a draw in a fight he was knocked out and lost in.. It's just not a good sign.

Regarding a Cotto fight

Regarding Pacquiao

As for Berto, Arum said his offer was "the most reasonable. He came in below everybody and he would be an excellent, excellent opponent. But his promoter [Lou DiBella] got to get out and promote him so he has a persona and that if we put him in with Pacquiao people don't say, 'Who the hell is that?' "

Cotto, Pacquiao, and Arum all dismissed Berto like I said. Don't fault him or Dibella.

[DrewWoodside]

I usually like boxers with a style like Berto. But I cannot be his fan because of his cowardice attitude and weak resume.

Not to give you more of what you love to hear, but ppl can say what they want about Khan.. He left a country where he was drawing sold out arenas, got on HBO and in 2 fights achieved his signature victory(and FOTY.)

You proved nothing with the Cotto link.. It just confirms what everyone has been saying. His asking price has been so over inflated by HBO that it's impossible to get him in fights against live competition. Regardless, I find it interesting and am glad to see there are actually Berto fans out there willing to defend him.
