    Who do you think he should target?

    I was impressed with his last outing , the guy isn't the prettiest to watch and no one will mistake his boxing skills for Mayweathers... but he seems to really grind opponents down and has great speed and power... coupled with great combination punching.

    Wouldnt mind seeing him against Mosley, I had tickets for their January fight, but then of course we know that it was canceled. Berto vs Williams is interesting, Williams would have like 6 inches of height and reach on him.

    I think Berto v Cotto would be great too

    He should have a good future ahead of him, people forget the guy is only like 26 years old.

    Cotto, Clottey, Williams, Dzinz, Martinez, Collazo, Pac, Floyd, Mosley, Margo, Bradley are all good fights.

    I still think he should rematch Collazo.

    Cotto should be his top choice, followed by Mosley, Bradley, and then Zaveck. I'm of course assuming Pac or Mayweather won't fight him.

    forgot about that... although I did think Berto did enough to get the win due to more powerful & damaging shots landed, the fight could have gone either way.

    Rematch would be great

    It just doesn't make sense for Mayweather or Pac to fight him... Berto isn't a big name and wouldn't create a big enough event for either of them.

    I don't entirely dissagree, which is why I'm assuming they won't fight him.

    Berto vs Pac would be a great fight though, all action until Berto gets stopped... Mayweather wouldn't get hit much against Berto... Berto isn't the most accurate guy and doesn't really use angles or anything that Mayweather hasn't seen before. Just my opinion

    If Pac indeed fights Mayweather and Cotto indeed faces Maragrito, I think the clear target for Berto then has to be Mosley.

    It should probably be Mosley regardless of what happens with those other fighters, imo.

    Berto should be Pac's option if Mayweather doesn't come through. If not bang up Mosley.

    If not Pac/FMJ, then I would like to see a Pac/Berto bout.
