Comments Thread For: Merchant Feels Berto, Juanma Upsets are Good For Boxing

[GRUSTLER]

The only difference between Berto and Vic is Andre Berto is the guy who is WAYYYYYYYY overpaid but both of these guy's WERE HYPE JOBS!!! Ortiz was considered the next Oscar de la hoya!! WHAT!!??? u kidding me to b even at Oscar's level!! both of these guys fought their ass's off and intern gained my respect Berto for finally proving he can fight with good opposition cuz when he first time steped up in competition against luie collazo he gave a great fight FOTY candidate and then..........thats it!!!! he didnt even give that guy a rematch now hes in the other side that luie was so will Berto get a rematch?? i think these two should def fight again it would another great fight

Nah man, Ortiz and Berto showed that they got heart and can fight. Give them more time, the right fights and determination and they can both be great. Hype job is what Canelo is.

nah... ortiz wasn't a hype-job, he was a quitter. but he ain't no quitter no more. tough fights and losses/draws against maidana and peterson learned his azz fast.

berto is a bonafide hype-job. fighting ordinary opponents, waiting for a chance to cash out. his toughest fight was collazo and ever since then they've been feeding him bums

Now that i think about yes u r right Ortiz just plain gave up in the War he had with maidana and intern it pissed him off how people were nagging on him all the time about maidana but anyways all this S*** is in the past hes the new WBC WW champion and he is the Man...and i know Berto will come back from this loss and i know from now on he'll b fighting better opposition from now on....and Juanma is Juanma the guy as being fighting like this for years and he aint gona change he gona get taged with haymaker after haymaker and the guy gets seriously hurt almost every fight but i hope he does learn some type of defence cuz this guy doesnt even put hes hands up!!...remeber what happened hatton ' Hands down Man down'...

merchant is spot on about berto. he had way too many soft touches and got paid way too much for them. when he finally faced someone above average, he blinked.

**** berto, that overpaid hype-job wifebeater wifebeater wifebeater. .

lmao your crazy.

loosing a fight makes you a better fighter....

moral lesson:

if you think you're GOOD, you'll stop LEARNING...
