    I watched the fight today. Terrible shoulder roll defense lol. So i guess the plan was to use the shoulder roll for D, and fight in the pocket, looking for a KO! Wow did this backfire smh. As some stated, Berto is not slick enough, nor does he have the footwork to pull this defense off. Leave it to Mayweather Berto lol

    Im pretty sure Berto felt like this in the ring with the ghost ..

    but just keeping it real, Berto's ring IQ is his real problem, he's all bronze no brains, and robert is a thinking mans fighter. I knew this was coming .

    Berto's attempt at a shoulder roll has me in tears of laughter every time I see it

    If he used a shoulder roll against a southpaw...he deserves to get his PED ass beat

    Shoulder roll against a southpaw who throws combinations doesn't work. Broner got away with it in his last fight because his opponent didn't want to throw combinations. Look at Mayweather against Judah and you'll see that Mayweather used a high guard, he has a boxing brain unlike Berto.
