Comments Thread For: Andre Berto: I at Least Deserved an Eight Count

[New England]

He couldn't walk. Good stoppage.

not to mention he could not clinch with that shoulder so badly torn up.


great stoppage.

you know what... I respect Berto losing more than when he's winning... cause at least he put on a great show... props to Berto, hope you improve and come back better

No problem with the stoppage. Getting up with spaghetti legs will usually get you stopped

I think the ref should have allowed Berto to finish the fight but I'm glad he stopped it cuz Soto Karas was about to get robbed.

114-112- Karass
113-113- Draw.

Unless Berto scored a knockdown of his own he would have lost by majority decision. Don't know where people are getting this ''He would have been robbed'' thing from.

lol,i was thinking the same thing bunch of mathematicians in here.

if it was an ABC (unified) bout than there would be no standing 8 counts as dictated in the rules. Who was the governing body? ............. Rockin'

It was an NABF sanctioned fight, a regional body for the WBC. They do have open scoring so I wondered what happened here, however the standing 8-count rule didn't matter here as he was knocked down.

I'm pretty sure we mean going into the last round, Soto-Karass would have gotten robbed if not for the knockout. Berto probably could have just danced away and somehow ended up with the decision with those scorecards.

Stoppage was fine! He was weak and had no legs!
Hell of a nite of boxing except for the young Japanese fellow taking way to many punches! Thats Texas & Florida for you they have no idea when a fighters life begins to become the focal point, they think its the wild west all over again!!!
Watched an older fight from Florida the other night with Santorie refing, that guy needs to be fired beforte he gets a fighter killed, he's a fool! Ray.

Berto deserved an 8 count, but he was about to obliterated! The stoppage may get him one more big fight, maybe a rematch Victor Ortiz.
