Told ya Berto was a hype job..

[Rome-By-Ko]

Think about what fighter today, to fighter isnt hyped though?

I'm just going to name younger guys..

Bradley(two time unified champ)
Froch is not(best resume at SMW)
Khan(has fought up to his talent level and won)
Alexander(unified the belts)
JML(he has R.Marquez on his resume which is impressive)
Maidana(although limit his resume is good)

Just a few off the top of my head,do you not agree??Even Mratinez and Pwilly on their come up were hype but they also fought top fighters in their div..No??

No your trollin by saying three words and adding nothing of merit to the conversation..

No. By only using 3 words, I'm being efficient in expressing contempt for a ****** idea as well as pointing out something that may or may not be obvious.

But you challenge that so let me elaborate:

That you should declare a boxer a "hypejob" after suffering his first and only loss in such a great fight to another very good fighter is ******.

But you don't seem to be ****** so there must be a reason for you to post something so ******.

You must have reasons for trashing this fighter that has nothing to do with his boxing.

That's all the further I need to take this line of reasoning to deduce that

you

are

trolling.

This postlets me know you are a troll who has not even been reading the threads and respones in it..It has nothing to do with Berto losing,I have been calling a hype job since Collazo..It has everything to do with his level of comp,Berto was a belt holder and has no win on his resume(outside of Collazo)of merit..You find this to be acceptable??

You're right about me not following the thread. It was the headline I was responding to. I just object to terms like "hypejob" and "exposed" and "hater" and the like that are thrown around so freely and as a consequence greatly detract from the conversation on this board.

I still think "hypejob" is too strong a condemnation and hyperbole besides, but I retract my trolling accusation. Cool?

Cool I figured it must have been a misunderstanding anyway..

Had to bump this thread man..Berto is one of the most disappointing fighters in recent memory..

[HBK]

All of Al Haymons boxers are hype jobs. It's the biz yo.

That he is Rome my man. I haven't seen the fight yet, its set to record in a couple of days, tomorrow I think. But I doubt that I'll change my stance once I see the carnage that unfolded down here in SA.

I think its clear that he wont be who he was before the PED's. I also think its clear he was a good fighter but not great. Yes he was given preferential treatment by HBO because he has a marketable story (coming frm Haiti).

Time to start thinking about another career IMO.

You were right on Berto, but by my count you still have a losing record in this thread.
