    Berto is a complete anomaly in the boxing world.

    The guy has little talent (by top level standards), no top level wins and no fan base, yet he seems to have got himself payday after payday.

    Its crazy. How much **** does he have to suck to get this many opportunities?

    At least guys like Zab Judah or Malignaggi were popular local attractions

      He sucks with two shoulders. He never beat any top tier fighters.

        Even at his best he ******. I don't care how much money he made, thats irrelevant. His best win is Josesito Lopez, or the often knocked out Ortiz.

          I never said he was great or he ******. What I said was he was bigger, stronger, and faster than Danny. Which he is. Are you going to say Danny's bigger, stronger, and faster than Berto?

              berto is a C level fighter with a lot of heart, for some reason this isn't an accomplishment to people... this sport is hard as hell to be good at and hes still around... he will never be great but always puts on good fights. Garcia and his team are doing nothing any different than what everyone else is doing these days, hard but fair said but true...

                Berto has been in too many wars and it has taken a toll on his body. Not to mention, the punishment he absorbed has aged him badly. He's not the same fighter he was five years ago. Errol Spence. Jr on the other hand, would have been a much better suited opponent for Danny Garcia at this point. Likewise, he is young, strong and also undefeated.

                  The same posters that pump Excitement or entertainment when justifying poor matchups on HBO suddenly find this is not enough of a standard for Haymon associated fighters that do not fight on HBO.

                      LOL. I was thinking about that fight. Canelo KOing Kirkland is great for the sport but Garcia KOing Berto would be terrible.

                      I get Berto is not an opponent a champion like Garcia should be fighting at this point but I just wish the "excitement"and "action fight" posters would be consistent.
