    At this point I would have to favour Berto slightly. Khan has only had a few fights at Light Welter so to move up to welter may be a big ask at this stage.

    Give him six months to a year and I think this could be a good match up for Khan.

    Stylistically I think it's a fight which Khan could look quite comfortable in. Berto for me is very overated and I see him getting found out when he eventually fights at elite level.

    Seeing as this is mythical, who's to say Khan doesn't pack a harder punch and maintains his speed as he moves up in weight? At this time it's got to be Berto, Khan needs a few more wins under his belt and if he does eat a bomb from Maidana and manage to stay in there we'll have a greater idea of his chin. Also OP edit the "Earthquake" please, that's disgusting and got no place being used to mock Berto.

    Seriously, all the guy has is athleticism. I see Khan landing on him 5 for 1 easily, outjabbing him and hitting him from combos on the outside. We're talking about a guy whose comp is actually WORSE than Khan's, in a more stacked/money division. He would get ****ing beaten like a bad child.

    I can see Berto pressuring him and backing him up late, landing something big as Khan tries to keep him off of him. I can see Khan's speed and technique outlanding Berto for about four rounds before Berto starts to hit his mark a little bit and impose his will. I think Berto can hurt Khan late and capitalize.

    The only thing Berto has is a puncher's chance in this fight.

    Khan 5'10 Berto 5'8 1/2

    Khan would be a monster at 147.

    Khan would give Berto a boxing lesson.
