    lmao, you don't even understand the concept of hindsight being 20/20.

    And hahaha, Berto made it a tight fight? How? Ghost UD12 by all three judges 116-110, did you actually WATCH the fight?

    Berto:
    - Inactive for 14+ months
    - Fought under 5 rounds in 2+ years
    - Lost to Ortiz who couldn't miss every time he threw something
    - Berto was criticized for having a weak resume for the longest time
    - PEDs free
    - Weak defense. Not hindsight. See Ortiz fight as an example.
    - Never beat anyone noteworthy

    Not only that. After Berto stopped pretending to be Floyd, he kept on connecting on Guerrero and made it a tight fight. Meaning, Guerrero is very hittable!

    Hindsight?
    - Floyd has better defense than Berto
    - Floyd is more accurate than Berto
    - Floyd has a better resume than Berto
    - Floyd beat Ortiz who beat Berto
    - Berto looks clueless when being attacked. Floyd?

    Guerrero had basically one plan against Berto. It worked but Guerrero is still slow and has little movement. Not good if fighting Floyd!

    I know that all roads must go thru Berto before they get to fight Floyd but this is just too much!

If Rios-Alvardo fight again its still 50/50. I do think Alvarado deserves the opportunity to make serious money but I'm ok with Rios-Manny. Besides, Alvarado is adamant about making his first defense in Denver.

          Yup saw it and know what you mean.

          Go reread what I said. Berto started off pretending to be Floyd. That was the difference.

          After that, it was closer! Berto was clueless defensively but he kept on catching Guerrero on the inside. Even though he did OK, Guerrero didn't need to be on the inside but that was his plan and he was sticking to it because of his concern of Berto connecting with his shots on the outside. Right there is all I needed to see and know about Guerrero ...... NOT a good candidate for Floyd!

          If you saw a different fight, let me know!

                Yeah, it's suppose to have a black outline around it but for some reason it disappeared. Thanks for the heads up. Gonna check to see if I could get back the black outline.
