he's a border line b level fighter. The thing I never liked about Berto is that he fight like a sprinter. Just comes out in bursts but it affects his stamina.
I was saying this for months after hearing him talk on a showtime card a few months ago....
Berto, dawson, taylor and lacy are all in the damaged goods club..... None should fight again...
”R.I.P to Edwin Valero after killing his wife yesturday he just killed himself in jail today. WOW women are a Motherf***er boy RIP E.V.”
I remember that but forgot it was him who said it. Seriously fu3k Berto i love watching him get his head smashed in and always will. Embodiment of a hypejob neverwas scumbag.
I don't hate Berto (same way I don't hate any other over-hyped fighter), and he should definitely be commended for his heart, but it still doesn't make him a good fighter. Berto gets complimented for things that I feel he simply doesn't have (i.e. good stamina, good boxing ability), and now recently it's become crystal clear that he's just a product of the hype machine. It's hilarious how he's been used as a launching pad in the Mayweather sweepstakes. Unfortunately for Soto-Karass, he didn't fight Berto sooner when the hype machine was still behind him cuz he probably would've gotten a Mayweather shot.
berto has a ton of heart and grit. he was fighting half the fight with one arm, but soto karass' style is terrible for him and his punch resistance is fading with every war. I've never seen a guy get hurt in the 1st rd. as much as berto does... he gets his bell rung in the first rd. of every fight. He has a chin like cotto's @140, every clean punch hurts him bad.
