    I'll admit I haven't watched hardly any of his fights but I know got robbed against De La Hoya.

    His best strength was getting a new belt made so that he didn't have to fight Gennady Golovkin

    Some say that Berries was a better version of Sturm. Considering that Berries only had a solitary fight it could be said that he had a unfulfilled career. Many punters in pubs/bars around the world have discussed what might have been had the Berries kid ever heard back from his team whether he should continue his boxing career or not. I often think to myself why didn't Berries team get back to him ? :lol:

    his greatest strength was learning that you’ll never get a fair card as a foreigner in Vegas after the Oscar fight, and wisely deciding to base himself in Germany
