Mosley could have fought Berto instead of Mora. The reason the fight never happened is because Berto insisted on the purse being 50/50. With Mora he was more than happy to take 40% of the purse. If Mosley wins he should tell Berto 60/40 take it or leave it, if not Berto then a rematch with Cotto.:bbb
What the **** is Andre Berto doing, anyways? I used to be a fan of the guy, but he is the very definition of wasted talent.
well..... if one guy is willing to take 60/40 vs the other one wanting 50/50, smart thinking is to go get the 60/40 guy. Getting rather tired of ESB'r saying a fighter ducking this & that cuz the fighter dont go fight the boxer's they "expect" them to fight. Mosley took the possibly better paying option, and probably easier fight? Sounds like best bang for your buck to me..... Strategically, its smart to get a win back under your belt before tackling another real hard fight.....
well, if thats the case, then these two opinions cancel each other out and he's definitely not a ducker, but just smart towards money
Um, I don't really understand that strategy to be honest. If Berto has already knocked back a 60/40 offer - then why would he take it up after Mosley beat Mora (assuming he does?). What's changed? The only thing I can think of that would make a difference but with the same split is if the total purse is a lot bigger. It appears Mosly has already offered Berto "60/40 take it or leave it" and Berto has said "Leave it". Why would that change?
Mosley is just trying to make some money after that awful beating he took......... From his ex wife! Give the brutha a break!
Mosley Made 3 million from the Margo fight and 7 Million from the Floyd fight.... I dont think hes hurting from the divorce anymore.
50/50? Thats some good Haitian weed he smockin. Mosley is a freakin legend who the **** is Andre Berto? Sounds like a cheap wine bottle.
Much tougher fight for Shane, who probably wants a gentle waters return after that ass beating Mayweather laid on him.
why does everyone rate berto so highly? dont get me wrong i rate the guy but the way people go on about him on ESB is crazy! shane would maul him very easily in my eyes through experience and sheer power alone. Mora is not as easy as people think!!!!
I ain't sold on Berto either. He should be looking to give Collazo a ****in' rematch. Asking for 50/50 means he don't want none of Shane imo.
