    Porter would trash Berto at this point

    Prime for prime it would have been a better fight

    Let's not forget though, Porter's soul is now on a mantle piece in Sheffield, Yorkshire.

    :lol:

    Yeah but I expect Porter to be just as good as he was before

    He hardly took any punishment at all in that fight

    And Porter doesn't seem mentally weak so I don't think his confidence is shot

    Brook did also lay down quite a straight forward blueprint, however...

    I do think he'd beat Berto but doubt he'll ever win a world title again.

    To be fair, I'd say not a lot of guys have the tools to do what Brook did

    Lesser guys would have been overwhelmed

    Never liked Berto but his performances against Quintana and losing effort vs Ortiz were pretty good and he gave his all vs Guerrero with some puffed up eyes. Berto is tough and despite many criticisms of his career he faced plenty of tough fighters almost like a Jermaine Taylor, 2 guys on HBO around the same time with a lot of hype but never lived up to it but still had great ability if not fulfilled

    Berto is injury prone and cuts and swells, if he stays healthy during the fight he has a good shot

    I've noticed he's only won one fight against a low level fighter since he got caught juicing.....:think

    Josesito gonna come out swinging for the fences and drop him and stop him in the first round like The Ghost and Vicious Victor only now I doubt poor Berto has the powers of recovery he used to have.

    I do favour Lopez in the fight, although a Berto win certainly wouldn't be a shock.

    No it wouldn't....I'm conflicted to be honest. But leaning Josesito.

    :patschI just realized this was a Porter vs Berto thread:lol:

    Porter by savage KO.

    Hans why don't go try your hand at kirk's challenge, you could probably move up the ranks and into the teens pretty quickly.

    Racist? How can I be racist if Brook is black? Do you know what racism means? I'm also favoring and rooting for Degale over Dirrell, so cut the bs.

    Because all I'd do is win then get the same level of hate as Joe Calzaghe and Floyd Mayweather get for doing the same. :lol::lol:
