I'm Inclined to pick Mosley but do give Berto a good chance to pull it off. He's a much better fighter than Mayorga was when he gave Mosley a tough fight. Mosley is a bit overrated on this site.
Berto doesn't have the power to hurt Mosley. Mosley has the power to knock Berto out. They have equal handspeed, equal stamina, unequal chin and unequal power. Usually the guy with the power and chin wins, unless you really believe Berto can out box Mosley.
Margarito would destroy Berto and you know it. Berto is a lot like Cotto without the power and technique.
Maybe. Heck even Mosley said a matchup with Berto would have been more difficult for him just before he fought Margarito.
Berto-Mosley..man o man this will be good...Berto may choose to stand and trade or he might box...Mosley could put a schoolin on or he could get old overnight...this has all the makings to be A GREAT FIGHT!!!
I think there's a good chance we see an upset. I think it's a pickem fight. Berto is exactly the kind of fighter you shouldn't fight as a veteran.
Yes you are, Berto had problems with Collazo, who we all know doesn't pack power in his punches like Sugar Shane. That simple
there's hunger and then there is the skill needed to back the hunger up. Berto doesn't have it. He is very fast but Mosley isn't exactly slow. Mosley hits harder and he is a better boxer. Hell Berto doesn't even have a punchers chance. The only way he wins this is if Mosley got real old real fast.
The only chance is if Mosley gets REAL old overnight. Besides, what are the reasons for this "hunch." Certainly you had to see something that gave you a hunch.
The only advantage Berto ever has is speed against guys who have no chance of beating him....guess what Mosely is just as fast with power....Berto will surely lose unless Mosely grows old overnight.
Ill be real and say i really do think berto COULD win this, now am i gonna go and say he WILL? hell no.... how can i go against mosley right now? BUT..... berto will be a BIG test i feel. Mosley hasnt fought this kind of fighter in quite awhile... young, strong, quick, undefeated..... he presents a differant problem then most of the guys mosley has beaten, and in boxing you just never know. But of course... i feel mosley WILL win when it comes down to it, but i think people will be in for a suprise. This is the chance bertos been fighting for his whole life.... and now hes got it, hes gonna bring it.
