    How would you all feel about this and how would it improve, or simply change your opinion on Andre Berto?

    I personally would love to see this. He knows damn good n' well he almost lost his 0 last night and I think it spoke volumes about the guy as a champion in how he dug in the last coupla rounds to pull it off.

    I see no need for a tune-up of any kind but simply an intensified training reg. My thoughts are the same for LC in this particualr aspect.

    Both those guys ****in' delivered last night and I gotta tell yu, if a rematch were to happen, I wouldn't mind LC winning it so we could have a rubbermatch if the second were to live up to the first. :bbb

    I'd think an assload more of him than of Chad Dawson.

    So does anyone think us fans deserve a rematch? Dontcha think LC deserves another shot as well? I was impressed with both fighters and wish we could see fights like that more often.

    I'm just speakin' a "what if" for the most part but I do think it would be a stand-up gesture on Berto's part and I would wager most fans would be quite grateful. I know I would.

    IT depends on what do you mean by "earning my respect" but most likely I am an ******* because I definitely watched the fight. The Q. is, did Collazo earn your respect?

    Both fighters earned my respect. I was especially impressed with LC's inside work. That **** was just plain nice. Save the rounds when he appeared to be gassed a bit, he capitalized on those body shots at close range, and did a nice job of avoiding that uppercut. It was some damn good work.

    I'd give him much respect because clearly Collazo is deserving.

    I'd expect nothing less from Berto whose a stand up dude. In the end it'd be nice of him but I have a feeling the people pushing Berto will find a way to not make it happen.

    Collazo is deserving, that said I wouldn't blame Berto if he chased some money right now either.

    If he did give an rematch my respect for him would even be greater.

    Let both guys have a tune up, and then do it again sometime in July or August. They deserve some time to recover and enjoy an easy win.

    berto did what he had to do to grind out the win . and no Collazo doesn't deserve a rematch he's a gate keeper who good enough to test the elite but no good enough to beat them. even samll elite 147lbers.


    i will say this BErto would lose to the bigger 147lb fighters such as Margo,Cintron,
    Williams, Clottey . would all beat him down mosely, cotto, would beat him if he doesn't stop sqauring up. i just think he should try to slim down to 140lbs
