    Am I the only one hyped for Berto's return?

    Don't get me wrong, I always thought the guy was a protected hype job with little boxing skills, but coming off of the war with Ortiz, I expect him to step into the ring with a different mindset. We finally saw him step away from the cab drivers and test himself again. Even though he failed, he'll likely be more hungry and want to improve now. He knows his place now an probably realizes that his stock went down a lot and he has much to improve on before he can get a shot at Pacquiao or Floyd. Zaveck isn't exactly a pushover either, even though he isn't really the best champion in recent years. Should be interesting.

    I got Berto by 8th round TKO.

          I meant he was finally tested since they started protecting him after the Collazo fight. I guess I didn't make myself clear.

                  They've been protecting him... Collazo included.

                      Berto isnt great but he's still a top fighter and now there will be a fire under his ass, i think he will look the goods


                      Perhaps not having the pressure of the "0" will help him settle, who knows but im quite looking forward to it

                              Not really, he has been ripping off the networks and the fans for years. I think he may lose again and fade into oblivion......this is what happens when dudes are hyped up and put on that good old pedistal- things get tough, they fall apart.

                                      He failed that test, luckily the judges gifted him the decision, I can see the same think happening against Zaveck.
