cool, this is a good fight, and Im excited that Zaveck is coming to the USA, hes a pretty decent fighter!

I think this will be a very exciting matchup. The explosive power of Berto vs the steady attack of Zaveck.

Title shot?

I have never heard of a fighter getting a title shot right after a loss. Dibella and Berto keep saying "Berto wasn't himself that night." That is bs. Berto tried to fight the way he usually does, but it did not work because he usually fights bums. He fought one good fighter (Collazo) and got a lucky win. He threw his best stuff at Ortiz and Ortiz kept coming. He did not know how to deal with that because he usually hits bums who just stay down. Berto looks for the big shot. He could not get the knock out and shot his load. Ortiz is a hungry fighter and he wanted it more. Berto needed that wake up call to stop relying on that big shot only and come prepared to fight 12 hard rounds. Mosley would have given him that wake up call earlier, but Berto pulled out.

Biloxi, Miss. The Recovery location for fighters.

Remember Roy Jones laying low here and fighting creampuffs, post-Tarver Triology.

Dude, you must not be paying attention if you have never heard of somebody getting a title fight after losing a fight. Caballero just got a title shot at 126 after losing to Litzu and after losing again, he is demanding another title shot. Wonjonkam is talked about like a HOF fighter and he's defended his flyweight belt five or six times against fighters right after they lost.

What a pain in the ass. If I'm going to have to get on a plane or drive hella far, I wish it was at least somewhere cool like Atlantic City, Chicago, California, ect.

Mississippi? Really? ****.

this is not actually news now is it? been a topic in the forum a week ago. again pretty horrible location choice if you ask me.
how is berto ever gonna catch up with the public, if they fly him from one place to another so much?
doesn't really matter ,after zavec beat him there won't be a B left from berto. more like C or D.

Yea that pretty much sums it up. Berto is good but is not an A fighter yet. He needs to throw more combinations and start trying to box a little instead of relying on the big shots.

much too late, he'll never do that. but he still has speed and power.
