Berto is too fast & slick for Mosley. Why would he risk a bigger $$$ fight

    Yes, Berto is fast and packs a punch, but he is still green. I think the fight will be entertaining but I see Mosley putting a vintage performance and pulling out a UD.

    The only reason I'm giving Berto a chance is because Mosley is old, but I still pick Mosley by KO.

    Berto throws snappy shots but he won't be able to hurt Shane, he simply doesn't have enough behind his punches to hurt a guy like Shane. Shane has an amazing chin. Shane can time him even if Berto is indeed faster, walk him down and throw leather. I don't see Shane loosing unless he gets old overnight. Shane has only had trouble with taller opponents who have excellent jabs - Vernon and Winky.
    Looking forward to this fight regardless of who wins!

    Berto isnt elusive. Ive never seen him change his style and even against the columbian he looked vulnerable. I dont think he can out box or even stand to trade with Sugar even at this point. Mosley by K.O.

    Slick? Berto isn't slick brah...he's just very fast and explosive. Shane even at this age and state wouldn't have too much difficulty dominating the young WW champ. The experience will overshadow the attributes that young berto is working with. Berto is still very green.

    Berto is fast. He's not slick. I expect Mosley to walk him down in this one.

    LMAO Berto is slick? LMAO Berto is fast and good, but even Mosley at this stage of his career probably knocks him out. Berto will be drowning when he gets to those deep waters.

    Berto might be too fast but he's not too slick.

    Hatton put him on his ass by stepping on his foot...but Hatton wasn't out on his feet either. Just stunned a few times.

    Berto loses 9 times out of 10. Berto has never experienced anything like the Mosley level.

    Agreed. If the wrecking ball that broke ol' Rockgloves into pieces comes to fight Berto, they fight does not go the distance. The latest version of Mosley walks through any version we have seen of Berto.
