    Leaning on your opponent is totally legal. What should he be shot for? For letting them fight?

    Berto was presenting a new defensive style a la Broner or a la Mayweather with his left shoulder pretty high and tryin to roll sliding Guerrero's shots. Guerrero used his right hand to lead and at some point, Berto was clinching with his left on Robert's right so Robert busted him up early with his free hand. No excuses. If Berto wanted to roll, why the hell he clinched on Guerrero's right???

    Glad to see ESB getting this one right. Berto initiated almost all he holding.

    Anyone with a good set of working eyes could see it was Berto initiating 90% of the clinches. Not to mention holding Ghost's arm time and time again.

    Berto was doing most of the holding....His own corner told him to stop holding with his left hand and start throwing it on the inside.

    The last few post have been spot on. It was Berto holding RG right arm all night, so RG threw with his free hand. Even the firts kd Berto had RGs hand tied up behind his own head..
