Comments Thread For: Hopkins Warns Not To Overlook Berto in Mayweather Bout

[Mukuro]

Hopkins is shilling for Mayweather now?

I will say this, the opponent is safe enough that Floyd can afford to fight in a more fan pleasing way this fight. It will not be a competitive fight but Floyd will be able to open up a bit and will probably stop Berto late. I still won't pay a dime for it.

The fight is less than three weeks away. Andre Berto (30-3, 23KOs) will challenger WBC/WBA welterweight champion Floyd Mayweather Jr. (48-0, 26KOs) on September 12th at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. Showtime Pay-Per-View will carry the card.

Berto is a sizeable underdog in the contest. Some bettering circles have Mayweather as high as an 80-1 favorite. Berto is 3-3 in his last six fights and his biggest win in the last few years has been Josesito Lopez.

In an ironic twist, the usually inactive Mayweather has actually been more active than Berto, who is averaging one fight per year since 2012. Mayweather fought twice in 2013, twice in 2014 and the fight with Berto will be his second of 2015.

Sorry Bernard I am going to overlook this fight.
