It was pure joy seeing Berto stick out his chin, trash talk and do that poor imitation shoulder roll and then get his a$$ properly kicked for the arrogant gestures.
Berto should have responded, but it looked like the ref decided to take over the fight and warned him that he would take a point off for some reason for a couple rabbit punches even though Guerrero's first knockdown was illegal.
Berto's effort of the shoulder roll was a joke. From the moment the fight started I knew he was going to get caught with a power hit. I started laughing when I saw his lead shoulder sky high. The shoulder rolls i think is hard to perfect, as you can see that berto mistook a left hook with a straight left and got hit flush since the hook went around his shoulder and glove. This is the hit that started the first knockdown. Mistakes like these are game changers. This just shows the amount of skill Broner and Floyd have
Yeah that was a dumb strategy. You can't master that over night especially when you have short arms like Berto. He was leaving his left ribs open all night. One thing I like that the Ghost was doing was when he was shooting the straight left down every time Berto dipped to his right. Berto was constantly dipping right into the left all night and never made the adjustment.
Maxboxing is not Goodman's website! Were you really serious when you said that? The Winky Wright article was not written by Goodman either.
I didn't say she wrote the article...she does work for maxboxing..since she's no longer part of the ring magazine...so yes it is her site because she works for them. Ironically your reply included nothing of what you just read at all..nevermind it should be the main thing you respond to me with but still..here's the fighthype thread for you btw..http://www.fighthype.com/community/i...pic=29061&st=0

You mean it really shows the skill Floyd has, as we can recall Broner called Guerrero and Rios out, let's see him get in there and try to shoulder roll against either he will end up just like Berto, taxed.. Broner had a decent win against little demarco but he ain't Floyd. Broner better stay at 135 like he's come to realize recently because he will have problems if he moves up wit these big boys. Guererro was 158 tonight, way bigger than Berto was and broner is..
The referrences you are making are years later when Paul was looking for payday's..two sanctioning bodies who mayweather held belts for stated "Paul Williams is the mandatory" at the time Paul held the third divisional belt so it would've been a unification bout Floyd walked away from...I don't doubt the other guys said no but it certainly wasn't when paul was named "the most feared man in boxing"..everyone was saying NO to him then..Mayweather included.
Exactly....No one wanted to fight Paul Williams because of various reasons most of them being that he was too tall for the weight and he wasn't a big enough name. When was the last time Manny or Mayweather had to fight a "mandatory" or any big name fighter for that matter? Even Canelo is getting a pass.... Chavez Jr anyone? Martinez chased him for 2 years. Margarito didn't want to fight Paul Williams back when he wanted to fight Mayweather and had an early fight with Cotto coming up. Paul Williams called Cotto out after he KO'd Quintana in the rematch and Pacquiao said no to a Paul Williams fight about 2 1/2, 3 years ago. Before the awesome KO loss to Matinez. Mosley and his pops said no to Paul Williams. I honestly feel in my opinion that it was because Williams didn't really belong at WW. I'm talking style wise and for me. Martinez style is more of a threat to Mayweather than Paul Williams. Fact still remains that these are both of our opinions but most times fights don't get made for political reasons. Williams was also with Al Haymon who Mayweather is with. Lots of ways to look at it.
That's ok..let's leave it like that..there are different tastes for everything..you prefer this tipe of fighters..I prefer the lara, rigo and gamboa kind of fighters..
I like Gamboa, Dude is a beast but he is nothing like Lara and Rigo.. Gamboa has mad skills also but he uses them to dominate and take his opponents out, unlike Lara and Rigo who put fans to sleep..
If Floyd Mayweather were to go to middleweight and beat Martiez fighting in the style Guerrero did tonight. This website would probably crash from the amount of "Floyd's juicing" posts it would receive. When like Berto, Martinez if often dropped in big fights. And he's also a guy that fights on a bicycle and doesn't fight a big man's fight to begin with. But Floyd would be juicing if he moved up and mauled the **** outta Sergio. I'd bet my life on that.
Floyd couldn't and wouldn't do that 1st off. I will say I was also a bit taken back by Guerrero's physical strength tonight and I don't put PED abuse past anyone especiallt if some form of ost wasn't performed for this fight. People do anything for money and fame..
