Comments Thread For: Schaefer: Andre Berto Getting MRI Exam on Injured Arm

[-Kev-]

Nobody had any conspiracy for Morales-Garcia, but for Berto is something fishy. Damn, Mexican fighters got it good. To get injured in a physical sport is fishy you know. I don't know how many times I springed my wrist while sparring and had to immidiately stop because of the pain. Injuring a whole arm is a far more serious issue.

Hhhmmmmmmm. I hear that Floyd is looking for an opponent in May. Probably a much larger payday than a fight with Ortiz....

I don't know about it being a fake, the guy gave up his belt to fight Ortiz. Why would he fake it now?

The thing is if the reports/rumors are true. He is having surgery right now, Kev isn't that kind of quick? Again if the reports/rumors are true. Why not get a 2nd opinion?

Also reports/rumors is that the tickets suck. That they're doing horrible.

That's why people are questioning the injury. New info that's coming out is that it's not even postponed but off. Unlike Morales who is still fighting Garcia.

Now these reports/rumors might end up being false. But, as of right now from what is being reported people have a right to be questionable.

Pretty much what Rosales said... the giving up the belt means nothing. Does anyone really consider him a champ at that weight class anyway? Unless he took it from Floyd-Pac...nobody cares about the 147 belts. Ortiz was really only in trouble when he got caught, other than that, he for the most part was able to run through Berto and I've always felt Berto to be a good bully-type fighter, who crumbles under the pressure..ala Kahn.

Damn I wanted to see berto get his ass whooped again.

This is the third time I have seen this in a couple of days Berto
as of last Wed hit the scale at 156-157 perfect for 9 or 10 days out

is this legit? hmmmmmmmm

Ruptured bicep? That Victor Conte concoction got him falling apart a la James Toney. I don't think he wanted another a$$ whooping anyway.

Damn.......

Maybe Ortiz-Khan in April and Berto-Brook in the early summer now.

This is crap, but oh well.

I swear, boxing has gotten off to a crappy start so far. First the Kirkland-Molina/Morales-Garcia card was postponed, now this fight might be off officially.

@stevemaxboxing: Source tells me that Andre Berto has a ruptured bicep. Rematch with Victor Ortiz is off... #boxing

i wouldnt sweat it if its coming from steve kim... do i have to bring up his record?
