Andre Berto v Steve Forbes up on Boxrec

he talked about it on friday night fights....

 

Berto UD. This is on the Mosley-Mayorga undercard isn't it?

 

i wouldnt be surprised if Forbes scores an upset.

 

what are you laughing at noob?

 

Forbes has a great chin and has never been ko'ed; however, he has fought mostly as a light weight and has never faced the combination of speed and power that Berto will bring. I doubt Berto will score a KO but wouldn't be surprised if he did.

 

ever heard of upsets dumbass?

its obvious you started watching boxing when you saw Mayweather at MTV Cribs.

 

Is there any analysts for your upset prediction? Yeah I am admittedly a "Noob" and a Berto fan but I haven't seen anything from Forbes to suggest that he can beat any of the top welters. He belongs in the JWW division if not in a lower division.

 

Forbes is going to sleep. Berto is a guy who tries hard to take out his opponents. He's going to finish what DLH couldn't or didn't try to do.

 

I think berto may get it by UD, I believe it will go like forbes last fight against oscar.

 

Berto is gonna stop Forbes and make DLH's win look bad.

 

Berto will Pound 2 Pounds Forbes either into a UD defeat or late stoppage.

Berto will be more aggressive than De La Hoya, and that was a past it De La Hoya. Berto is a young gun eager to prove the doubters wrong, so I am sure Forbes has been picked as a first defence after watching the De La Hoya fight for the following reasons.

1 - He not a big hitter and a physically smaller guy having fought at 130-140lbs most of his career.
2 - He is a recognizable name due to his recent fight with the Golden Boy and is also known from his stint on the contender.
3 - He is known for his durability and if Berto stopped him it would look very good seeing as De La Hoya could not.

I am not conviced Berto has a major chin problem, as Rivera is a crafty vet who does hit hard, in his previous fight before Berto he pushed Light Middle Contender Joel Julio to the limit, scoring a knockdown on the way.

 

he isnt a light middle and is barely as welter.

sadly he had to fight oscar who just soundly stayed away from him. then threw a few shots. forbes coudlnt get inside so it was a shut out. forbes has always been a inside pure boxer. using a stiff jab and body work to get his wins sadly he cant pop and isnt the ultra aggressive sort.

i sense an upset too. forbes is world class but sadly isnt a full timer and wieght doesnt really cross his mind. but he is a operatro and has a chance of out hustling berto.


hey it's the year of the upsets :nod

 

Berto is going to take Forbes apart. Forbes has no power, and he's not as fast as Berto. Berto will be the bigger guy in there for a change. Forbes has what it takes to go the distance, but that's about it. He's in for an ass whoopin.

 

I noticed this yesterday when I was checking out boxrec..Interesting matchup too.. Berto may be too quick for Forbes, but I wouldn't be surprised if Forbes pulled the upset.. I'll be rooting for him too..
