    Physically gifted, lightning fast but chooses to pot shot/run. Just as boring to watch also:patsch.

    floyd can walk his opponant down effectivly and when he does pot shot he looks of ways to mix it up. and can double up with the right cross.

    also floyd isnt a big clincher where as berto tried to lewis urango

    To compare Berto to Floyd is to give him credit he doesn't deserve. The only similarity is that both fighters wear boxing gloves when they enter the ring.

    only similarity i see is that they are both advise by al haymon. otherwise, dont see it... and seriously, time for the berto gravy train to end... dude is gettin paid to fight matches where he is developing on hbo for the last couple of years. enough is enough. the only reason they put him in w collazo is that they thought he was past his sale date after mosley beat him; they were not expecting that competitive of a fight. everyone could see urango was an easy mark who knew boxing from jump deaded when this match was signed. like i said, i'm not hatin on berto for taking the correct trajectory in terms of his development. he is str8 up not ready for the upper echelon of the division; and honestly, w his fundamental flaws, might never be. but, dont keep wastin the precious few hbo dates on **** that is espn2 level showcase type ****.

    I think if floyd Jr beats JMM he will seek a fight with Berto to get the WBC title back.

    Judah has been more exciting at the elite level than Berto. That said, Berto has a better chin and more maturity.

    I personally do not care how boring he fought. It was not me out there. He was there to win and he got it. But yes, sometimes you got to put up a little bit of a show to bring some excitement and earn some fans. It's the fans who pays to see the fights. Money will usually follow...

    These days with the MMA and all, you need some paying fans to get big pay days. Don't just settle with free HBO fights.

    berto is nowhere near the natural talent and skill level of floyd.
