    floyd is a P-U-S-S-Y forget about him, most people just watch him hoping he will get his ass kicked any way the guy is a ****ing joke,.. boxing is about more then just having a 0,..to me that 0 just says he ducked pac and dissapointed alot of his fans,. I respect the guys skills, he has awsome skills and honestly I think he would be the one to beat pac but for some reason the guy thinks with his *****, any body notice how his camp would always say floyds going to beat pac,... and now they say floyd does not need pac, ..obvioulsy floyd was acting all tuff until pac agreed to his **** and now he changed his mind so has his camp,.. its the other way around pac does not need this guy floyd needs him,.. espn and every other sports broadcast always call floyd a puss,.. pac gets respect ,.. not really a fan of pac but atleast he mans up when its time to its not his fault arum is such a dumbass

    Berto has a belt and is undefeated so I'm more interested in that fight. Wasn't Berto saying that Pac is on PEDs though, so he'll probably want a test too. This fight is not gonna happen, I'm almost sure.

    In terms of raw gifts and talent Berto WAS freakishly good, he's been so inactive I have no idea where he stands today, so that is one issue I would have. Secondly, his defense has never been anything to write home about, and he just looks unrefined. It's like he was an AWESOME prospect, who has never really gotten better. He sort of reminds me of Jermain Taylor in that respect, he has every physical gift or tool you could ask for, but hasn't perfected the craft of boxing. I say all that to say, I like Berto, and I think he would present some danger for Pac because of his explosive hand speed and punching, but his defense is so suspect that I think Pac would stop him under 9 rounds. I think Berto could hurt him and certainly could hit him, but could he "get off first" and hit him enough...I doubt it, but I would be much more interested in this fight than SSM as it stands now.

    FLoyd isn't negotiating. "I don't know if I'll ever fight again." It's not about blood tests . Pacquiao said he'll agree, Floyd won't call his bluff.

    Berto is black and born in America. He's not slick, but he does have the quickness and willingness to clinch like lots of Black-Americans.

    :deal I like Pacman, but I don't like my fighters taking on easy fights. No easy way out! Berto isn't on Manny's or Floyd's level, but he is still a live threat. He has a hell of an uppercut.

    Berto has a glass jaw.

    He's got haitian roots. Doesn't count.

    So maybe wait for the winner of Alexander vs Bradley. Alexander got hit at will by Urango and schooled by Kotelnik, or featherfisted Bradley. There are better threats out there.

    They already know that, Beenie, but I guess they have a different description of what an African-American should be.

    Like many said before..

    I'd rather see this fight than a fight with Shane Mosley.

    Sure I imagine Mosley/Pac would do better numbers and more people know Mosley than Berto... but I think I speak for many boxing fans when I say no body wants to see that fight after Floyd destroyed him... and how he looked against Mora.
