Rod Salka vs. Andre Berto at 145-146 CW. Who wins?

[BrometheusBob.]

My money's on Salka. War Lightning Rod Salka!!!

[The Big Dunn]

Not sure. I'll go with Berto.

On a side note, I do think both Berto and Salka will give a better effort and make a better fight than Floyd's last opponent.

A guy who couldnt make 142 an fights at 135 vs a 147 lber who is fast, good athlete (maybe not elite) but physically gifted. Some of these threads are ******, Berto KO in 4 and I like Salka and dont like Berto.

Is that poll voting real or is everyone making it a joke voting for Salka.

If everyone is serious in their thinking that Salka can beat Berto, then what does that say about Floyd fighting Berto next?

It says that Floyd should be fighting Salka instead of Berto.

I didn't expect the polls to be one sided. But from the information gathered by the polls and responses I guess you're right. This was not intended to be a troll thread. I thought about the fight for awhile and I thought it's a winnable fight for Salka.

The thread had nothing to do with Floyd, really. Believe it or not.

Based on what Salka and Berto have done recently, there isn't much difference.

Both guys are on 2 fight winning streaks, except Berto had a controversial stoppage in a fight he was clearly losing and got stopped by Karras. Whereas Salka has looked good in his last two fights, whilst putting up a valiant effort against Danny. Who would you rather lose to, Karras or Danny?

The case Berto has over Salka is the weight I suppose. If nothing else Berto is a full fledged welter unlike Salka who looked out of his depth at 142 but I think he could gradually grow into 147. The Garcia fight was too sudden.

As for the matchup, again the weight is key. P4P Salka is more skilled but Berto has the natural athleticism with speed and power. 2 lbs might drain Berto who is a big guy. I'd give Berto a punchers chance but Salka by decision is the most likely outcome.

Thata basically what I said as well. The X factor would be if Berto catches Salka with something that he cannot recover from. Which is very possible.

This poll is so ******, not even a competitive match at all.

Salka will easily outbox Berto or knock him out within 6rds.

Lightning Rod by UD.. too slick, too quick, too salsa.
