    Who's bitching? You kept going after me even though I said your post came right after mine, hence me thinking it was directed towards me. Then you continued to rant on how you weren't talking to me. WTF?!? :huh

    You really are escalating NOTHING into a stupid nothing.

    I told you who I think qualifies. Either Mayweather or Martinez, or nothing.

    SO, you can refer to Berto as a young world champ, but you and I both know, there's only one world champ in each division. And Berto is just a titlist. Berto won a vacant belt vs. a guy who has not a SINGLE BIG WIN at WW. None. And since then, Berto hasn't done **** but take soft touches. WHat does beating Berto do? Nothing. Pac's already beaten better and more accomplished WW's then Berto. HOw about Berto stepping up and facing some others hinmself to make himself an attractive opponent. Because all Berto has right now, is that 0 at the end. And unless your the type of fan impressed by a 0, it doesn't mean much when al his W's are pretty weak too.

    I agree 100%!! I think he has all the tools to win but I don't necessarily pic him to win!! It would def be a different kind of challenge than his last few opponents who all brought recent fight baggage!! Berto is still fresh & unbattered!! Why keep fighting these wounded fighters w/names that they made yrs ago who clearly aren't the same anymore??

    I won't say it won't be interesting if he faces Berto (in spots), but I don't see Berto doing much. Other than taking a beating and possibly being the next Jeff Lacy...

    So you suggest Pac retire if he can't score a fight w/Martinez or Mayweather?? What did Cotto do, or Margo or Clottey?? Cotto & Margo were both blasted & didn't look good pre-Pac & Clottey has never one a big fight yet they all were worthy?? Like I previously said... Berto is still fresh & unbattered unlike all Pac's previous opponents. He's a Champion, has talent & represents a totally different kind of opponent for Pac w/his speed, power, reflexes & agility!! What's wrong w/goin that route??

    Lacy IMO never had any real boxing talent, he was just a slugger who won me $500 when he fought Calzaghe!!!

    Two totally different fighters!!

    Berto hasn't earned the right to get beat up by Pac yet. He needs to take Mosley, then another dude, before he can even run his mouth,

    Berto doesn't deserve anything but to be blackballed. At this point, he's lost everyone's interest with Team Berto's opponent selection. No one even cares anymore. No one even gets excited to see a Berto fight.

    Berto, would be the first "LIVE" body Pacman fought in awhile. Berto, only 26, and has speed and power and would give Pacman a good fight.

    Yet Tony and Clottey earned the right to get beat up by Pac? Again, I'm not claiming that Berto is that hands down clear choice, but to dismiss on the grounds he hasn't "earned" it is laughable considering the guys Pac has been fighting.

    He is an undefeated World Champion, who fights in the same division as Pac.

    Tony & Clottey have paid their dues, & they are under the same promoter so of course Bob is gonna get his guys paid. Both have actually fought live opponents prior to fight Pacquaio. Berto hasn't done ****

    I agree with this too. Berto to me is the most logical choice since he isn't your typical "I saw your last 2 fights" opponent. I think Manny would win, but Berto has a shot and if he lands that Bertocut, it'll be a good fight
