    Aydin would get his face beat in. Bailey is a better fight in my opinion. Still not the fight I wanted to see Berto in but Bailey will test him

    yeah, this isn't a great fight, but at least Randall has crazy power and could put Berto on his ass once or twice.

    I want to play Devil's Advocate here...

    other than a Top Rank fighter who can Berto face that would get him to the next level instead of being labeled as an 'overpaid HBO hype job"?

    Angulo at 154?

    Bailey has been stopped every time he stepped up in class. Anything but an impressive win by Berto would damage his already failing reputation.

    At 154lbs there is Cintron, Angulo, Paul Williams, Sergio Mora and Dzinzurik (but Dzin might be already tied up with Martinez) all without a fight programmed. Berto can take on those guys if he really wants to step up his game.

    At 147lbs you have Clottey, but lets just hope its not the Clottey that showed up to the Pac fight. Also Senchenko and Zaveck but don't know if they have fights in line already. Or even the hype job Kell Brook! ****, Berto can even take on Judah to add a "name" to his resume or even Malignaggi! Good fights out there for him not named Pac/Mayweather but I guess he thinks he deserves to ride his name for a little longer.

    He can ride his name or he can make one for himself by being more active and fighting some up and comers...I don't mind Baily as an opponent because Berto is kinda chiny....but it to me is worse then the Urango fight...which I wasn't too stoked about either.

    There is talk about Berto facing the winner of the Jones-Soto Karass Rematch - that would be a great fight for him to take. Collazo would be a good one too but he's been a bit inactive lately. Jo Jo Dan or Kell Brook would be fights that I'd be happy with too. Clottey would be an okay fight as well. **** I'd take a fight between him and Zab over bailey. I do understand thought that these days a lot of the top dogs at 147 pounds aren't really known in America and probably wouldn't want to fight there anyways. Aydin being a good example.

    Ah, boy. The Clottey that showed up to fight Pac was there because Pac was there too. That's Clottey.

    Should be decent. I mean at least every round until the final bell it will always be interesting to see if the KO King can land a big punch on Berto. Berto should win quite easily, but Bailey's got that power that makes things interesting.

    I read they were thinking about either Collazo or Cintron.

    :think.......I can kinda' understand where Berto and his team is coming from.

    Other than Floyd, Pac's best option for a money fight after Mosley is Berto.

    Why would Berto risk losing at this time when there's a big payday just ahead???
