    And yet he still got hate... Despite an exciting style, "die in the ring" level heart, and a humble personality, he still got hate

    Can people just be honest why?

        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.

            Berto has a ton of heart,,,,,

            But he is done now...

            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...

                  Then you should find another sport to follow, not many class acts in boxing. I mean, start with your avatar for example.

                  What was bad and funny about Berto is that he accused Ortiz and insisted on testing while he was doing it

                    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.
