ANDRE BERTO a KO waiting to happen??

Nah We Got To Bring This One Back Out!

 

The hate surrounding Berto is ridiculous. The funny thing is, if he does lose, everyone will say he is a hypejob. This, despite the fact that many people on this board don't think very highly of him. Not everyone can be a futre HOF'er. This guy is an exciting and dynamic fighter. I though that's what people liked? Berto is not perfect, and probably won't stay undefeated hos whole career. However, he'll rack up some good victories, and will probably win a title or two during his career.

 

Thank you, that's why I respect what BK said. He said that he enjoy watching him fight. So he really doesn't care about his flaws. To me he is one of the most exciting fighters right now :good

 

You're off base here. He could face Clottey for the vacant IBF strap. I like his chances in that fight, and no way in hell Clottey KO's him. Also, if Floyd vacates his WBC belt, I could definately see him winning that vacant title. He also mentioned the Williams/Quintana winner. If Williams were to win, I think he's sloppy and flawed enough to lose to Berto.

 

Clottey couldn't KO shot, defensively challenged, glass jawed Corrales who was coming up two divisions and making his debut at 147. Clottey also weighed 175 on fight night for that fight. He's also gone the distance with two journeymen recently, is not a hard puncher, gets tired, is inactive for good stretched during rounds, and has hand problems. Please tell me what makes you think he can KO Berto? Quintana is not a devestating puncher and couldn't even drop flawed prospect Julio. I don't think he could stop Berto within 4 rounds.

 

He weighed 175 damn shame he should be at 154 or up

 

He's only been KD once in the pros in that was off a perfect uppercut. Also, he was not on ***** street. He actually twisted his ankle on that shot and was fine when he got up. Corrales, on the other hand, had been KD several times in the pros and was coming up 2 divisions. Clottey could not stop him. In fact, Clottey hasn't stopped anyone in 4 years. You can't ignore **** like this when you say Clottey is going to KO someone within 4 rounds. Obviously, you must see how this prediction doesn't make sense.

 

Once again, what makes you think Clottey has any type of power? He hasn't KO'd anyone in 4 years and couldn't stop a shot, defensively challenged, glass jawed, blown up lightweight. And he didn't let Rivera land that uppercut, he got out of position and was caught. No one said he doesn't have definsive liabilities. My point is that Clottey doesn't have the firepower to capitalize Berto's mistakes and stop him. Furthermore, you're definately high or don't watch much boxing if you think Clottey hits harder than Floyd.

 

Clottey hasn't stopped anyone in 4 years. Floyd has stopped 2 people in 4 fights at 147 and may have stopped Judah had he not been fouled. Clottey couldn't stop a blown up, shot Corrales. The same Corrales that Floyd KD five times and stopped when Diego was in his prime and at his best weight. Clottey does not hit harder than Floyd. And Berto won every second of every round against Rivera except for when he got hit with that uppercut. He looked fine when he got up and when he went to his corner.
