If Berto wins the ibf in his next fight Khan should move up and challenge him

[D4thincarnation]

All I know is ....

If Khan stuns Berto, Berto will come back.
(Proof: Berto came back with knockdowns in R2 and R6 against Ortiz, despite losing - Also, Khan wounded Maidana with a body shot in R1 but never followed up #epicfail regardless if he won)

If Berto stuns Khan, Khan better run, because it will be over soon.
(Proof: Ran for the remainder of the championship rounds against Maidana)

Didn't watch the 11th and 12th round then.

Khan isn't the puncher Ortiz is, neither is he as physical strong or as physically imposing. For Khan to replicate the same performance Ortiz did, he would have take Berto's legs from under him EARLY, and Amir doesn't posses that kind of power.

Lets consider that Berto has been taking on southpaws mostly, Berto would operate better against Khan.

Khan wouldn't attempt to operate how Ortiz did, he wouldn't need to.

Khan has a jab, an excellent one. Berto would have absolutely no clue how to deal with it. Nor his speed, or general ability.

Southpaw, Orthodox, it doesn't matter. He still has the same mutliple, multiple flaws that would result in him taking a one sided beating.

Berto: 22.5 in armpit to the fist
Khan: 24.5 in armpit to the fist

Guess that won't be an issue in this fight.

Show me your sources; that's right you have none.

Andre Berto - 72" (http://www.associatedcontent.com/art...vs.html?cat=14)

Amir Khan - 71″ (http://boxrec.com/list_bouts.php?hum...4558&cat=boxer)

They practically have the same hand speed.


Maidana's slow, wide looping unathletic ass won rounds, and he didn't emphasize on trying to win rounds. So what makes you go that far?

Maidana applied constant pressure, Berto can't, won't do that.

And Khan will be considerably faster

Yes Orthodox and Southpaw do matter, styles makes fight; and a Berto fight is all wrong for Khan.

Oh, was Maidana laying against the ropes and telling Ortiz to come to him? Berto did this most of the fight with Ortiz because he was so bamboozled by actual substance.

If you genuinely believe that Berto and Maidana fight alike you are seriously mistaken. They fight nothing alike.

Maidana is a pressure fighter, he comes to fight, and doesn't take a step back. He is slow, and plodding.

Berto, is not a pressure fighter, in any way, shape or form. He fights in spurts, throwing 1 punch at a time at times even. Tries to box, but is so pityful at it he ends up not boxing but having almost no style.

i dont think they are the same fighter. what i do think is they are not that far apart. and berto was fighting against the ropes against a fighter that was pressing him. and with that said, he still had his rounds and he still got some really good shots off. i guess i must have been watching a different fight because ppl make it seem as if berto got destroyed.

maidana is not really a pressure fighter imo. he seems disguises himself as one but he isnt very good at it. he does a poor job at it more than he does a good job at it. anyways, berto has played the role of a pressure fighter at times as well, a good example is the quintana fight. he wore quintana, the much better boxer, down with pressure. berto's problem is as u stated before, he doesnt really have a style. but the way he fought in the ortiz fight would be totally different than the way he fights a khan fight. i assure u, he wouldnt be waiting on the ropes against a boxer with inferior power.

Prescott didn't apply constant pressure.
