    Firstly, all we can go on is what we saw in the ring. This is why I have a hard time using post-fight excuses as a way of justifying why a fighter didn't fight to his potential.

    Secondly, Berto isn't that good. He has shown us nothing before to indicate that was an off-night.

        I had already said right after the fight that Berto didn't perform up to this potential because he was too busy partying and having sex, including during fight week.

        He's an idiot.

        I guess he saw how Maidana owned him and how Peterson put up a valiant effort and thought he would steamroll him. That kind of thinking gets your 0 and your WBC belt taken away.

        Even Floyd, master boxer and technician is not overlooking Ortiz, that's why he's training hard right now and will look spectacular come September 17.

              Sounds like excuses for Berto who is just a hype job.

                    The only advantage Ortiz had against Berto. Is that Ortiz is an above average fighter at best.

                    While Berto was a below average to just an average fighter at best.

                      I thought you were going to say it's because they fought at a catchweight.
