    Why Not Berto-Broner?

    Two decent guys who are a level below being top tier but are both talented, why not put them together? I think this would be a good fight, your thoughts?

    Personally I don't rate Berto highly, he has all the physical gifts in speed and power however he gets thrown around like a ragdoll and is always hesitant. Looked like crap in the Lopez fight. Whereas Broner is inactive and lacks power above 135. He'll beat everyone he's supposed to beat but will lose when he steps up again. Basicall win 3, lose 1 type if fighter.

    Because Broner has no business fighting legit welters....


    Broner needs to be at 135-140 to have any success

      Next? Probably an Aaron Martinez type opponent to get him an "easy" win but after that I think he could end up fighting a fighter like Berto, Lopez, Guerrero. Not easy but highly winnable and something he'll get some credit for

        He missed weight by a pound against Molina. He doesn't have th discipline to stay at 140.

          That sounds more realistic but Aaron Martinez did beat up Guerrero...

            I'd watch it, but I'd rather he get in the ring with another top welterweight with power. I wanna see what comes first, humility or serious injury.

              I would be OK with that...OR

              Broner vs Mayfield
              Spence vs Berto
              Porter vs Thurman
              Mayweather vs Khan or Brook
