    He also did a much better job vs Aydin, who had Guerrero swaying under the clean headshots he was taking late
    Ghost ****D Berto and pushed him around the ring. Ghost deserved a 3rd rnd TKO after he dropped Berto and swelled his eyes to look like E.T. Sotto is NOT the Ghost. Specially after he struggled against Bumto!

      I could see him fighting Broner or Thurman next.

        Guerrero-Soto Karass wouldn't be bad either.

        Maybe Ortiz-Soto Karass too.

          JSK is still a journeyman
          but he earned a payday with a name after that performance
          he might get a shot at Broner if he doesn't go down in weight
          maybe JSK-Guerrero gets made, or an Ortiz fight

              If Andre Ward beats Truax next, would people be impressed? Now flip the names and ask the same question.
              oh please, most of us accepted a long time ago that berto was pretty much crap. thats what made this fight interesting. many ppl picked karass to win. i still dont rate karass highly tho. hes not that good.

                Soto-karass has lined himself up for some nice paydays but he aint getting floyd...
                I see possible matchups with

                josito lopez
                victor ortiz
                Shane mosely
                Keith Thurman

                Beat one of those guys and he will be in the running to land a fight with
                Khan/alexander winner
                Broner/maidana winner

                  Other part of that theory is that they need to at least be a decent enough attraction (draw).

                    I scored that fight for Berto. Combined with Berto's left eye at least being swelled by head goring by Guerrero for which the referee gave 0 warnings, I thought Berto was kinda robbed in that fight (albeit why he's such a slow starter only he knows).

                    I thought Berto made a case for winnings rounds 3-11, because he landed the best shots in all of them. Guerrero fought like a dumb ass when he was winning the fight when it was long, and ate uppercuts all night on the inside.

                    I wouldn't classify that as being ****d, despite having 1 eye thumbed and swelled shut and the other head rubbed until it shut.

                      The fight was a mismatch. Berto landed some good uppercuts, but Ghost walked right through them. Even at one point he was staggering, and he didnt even care. Berto got dominated by Ghost. It wasnt a close fight at all, so stop making up silly stories.
