    good riddance to andre berto

    One of the most protected and hyped fighter of his generation.

    Nothing personal, he and al haymon just represents what is wrong with boxing.

    i give him props for the ortiz fight though.

    Andre Berto ended up being Jeff Lacy. Seriously. He could beat the lower level guys but as soon as he fought anyone remotely good, Ortiz and Guerrero, he got beat down. And after those, he loses to f**king Soto Karass. Berto is done.

      i think al haymon learned his lesson giving his guys soft touches which is why i think broner next fight will be maidana.

      thurman is a al haymon fighter and he's had some tough fights so far.

        I don't care to see him again but he fought with one arm and showed heart so he'll get another chance

          true that.

          but the scorecards were horrendous.

          al haymon trying to revive a hyped up fighter was thankfully prevented.

            Believe it or not, many so-called boxing fans here got duped into believing Berto was the real deal. I remember some clowns here saying Berto is being ducked by this and that fighter.

              To think of what Pacquiao would have done to Berto had they fought in May 2011. It was close to happening. My god Manny would have put a beating on him.

                That's what I was implying in my previous post. You'll hear clowns in this site saying Pacman is ducking Berto.
