    Just saw Clotty Baldomire fight. Baldo had the activity and Clotty was doing good blocking a lot of shot and hitting him flush. I actually had the fight for Clotty when th ref DQ him. Clotty looked clearly hurt in the 9 round. Then turn it around landing bombs in the 10 and 11. Clotty gives everyone except pacquiao a tough fight. I think would be a good match for Berto. Im actually incline to pick Clotty in this one.

    Would be a good gauge for Berto. To see where he fits in the division's "top" fighters.

    undercard for Pac-Mosley.

    Good showcase for Berto if Arum is planning for him to fight Pacquiao next. If Clottey wins, he may just fight the Cotto-Margarito winner.

    I'd pick Clottey at this point. If he lands flush (and he would, I think), Berto goes down.

    Only an Insomniac would want to watch Clottey fight again

    Clottey would take him to school in the later rounds and maybe put him away.

    Why? The only fight he's been thoroughly beaten was vs. Pac. His fights vs. Judah, Cotto, Margarito, and Baldomir weren't snoozefests.

    **** Berto is just as horrible.....Any true WW champ that gets raped by Collazo, struggles against Steve Forbes ought to just go kill themselves.

    Clottey beats everybody (excpet Pacquiao) and than gets robbed because he's not marketable at all. Berto would be no different. Berto isn't as good as Cotto or Margarito and I feel Clottey clearly beat both of those guys when they fought.

    Guess the only fight you saw him in was pacquaio. He won't be a turtle for the Berto fight.

    They can't affored Berto/clotty on the undercard. He gets paid a million to fight bums. I predict he would ask for 3 mil for that fight.
