Berto vs. Soto-Karass/Triple Header + Undercard RbR discussion thread

[daggum]

if anyone starts feeling bad for berto just remember he made a million dollars to fight freddy hernandez

[JDezi4]

Thurman KO's him...

Soto's way to slow

Thurman showed tonight his power isn't one-punch power (at least no to the head), so it would be a great fight while it lasted

And it would last at least 6 rounds

[Briandl]

in principle i agree. but he was going to get stopped that round.

No way to know for sure, Berto has a kinda Rocky thing going on. Always looks like he's getting the hell beaten out of him, but finds a way to knock a guy down with a body shot, or knock down Ortiz after having been knocked down.

This sport is too unpredictable to say either way.

[Tay Roc]

partir a su madre... hahahaha

there's not good translation to that really, you kinda just have to know what it means.

either way, great night of fights. Amazing.

I felt bad for berto, he puts in the work and shows tremendous heart but always comes up short when it matters.
Poor guy.

Half the people on here that are saying they are sad for Berto are full of s**t.

[sicko]

look at the Score Card I really don't feel sorry for Berto, he did all of this to himself to be honest

just a very ****** fighter, all the Slugging Out and Heart and all that **** is good for fighters who don't have much talent and gets by purely on Heart and Determination, Berto actually HAD Talent but fought like he didn't because he chooses to use his Muscles and not his BRAINS much! Even with knowing that Al Haymon will get you the win if you get it to the Cards his dumb a$$ couldn't even do that

Soto-Karass's wife is cute.

That is all.

manchuria was not a japanese state until after the sino-japanese war. it was occupied territory. its lke saying france was a german state. smh. seriously if u are gonna tell someone they need to learn some stuff, u might wanna start.

It was a state controlled by Japan and part of japanese territory when the Soviet Union invaded it, why is that so hard to understand?

And your dumb ass even said the japanese government didn't know about it when they surrendered LOL.

stop trying to be politically correct over a comment that wasnt made in bad taste. i have nothing but respect for the japanese people and their culture. the dropping of the bomb was definitely an atrocity and im not here to argue whether it was right or wrong. it cost thousads of people their lives and it lead to the deaths of thousads more. but at the end of the day, what i stated was a fact. something acknowledged by both histories, the Japanese and american history. it was war, both sides committed atrocities, in fact one would argue that japan commited a whole lot more than anyone but the germans, but none of that was the point of what im saying. the japanese warrior culture and spirit has existed long before ww2 even before the creation of the samurai warrior class and bushi. it is not a dishonor to say that that warrior spirit was alive and well with arakawa tonight.

And that's what you should have said instead of bringing up that dark moment in history. It's not political correctness it's just decency.

Why you all in Berto's pockets man? Dude has enough money to retire from boxing as he should do, I doubt he made 1 million tonight but your breakdown of what he would owe on 1 million is flawed to say the least..

Another poster made a comment on berto's pay. My comment was directed at that.

Even then, I'm not so sure what's wrong with my assessment.

Anything over 250k, uncle sam is taking 50%. Then you have to pay your team - cut man, trainer, manager, promoter, ect...

No way was I in his pocket, just commenting on a good night of action

[IronDanHamza]

Called it, I knew Karass had a big chance of winning.

If Berto faces anyone who is average or better he either struggles or loses.

His career is over now, and thank The Lord.
