Berto vs. Collazo - Tactical Discussion

Excellent.

Welcome to the boards noob

 

Collazo looked like a bum against Mosley. Berto gonna destroy him.

 

Collazo is worth a pick at 3/1......

If the odds were better than 6/1 for a stoppage I would be tempted.

Not sure about Berto's beard.... Collazo throws hard counters but his power shots aren't much harder - if they were he would have knocked out Ricky Hatton in the last round, because Ricky's conditioning for that fight was absolutely awful.

 

Berto UD in a fairly close one.

 

berto has a better set than collazzo...LC got schooled by an older less fast mosely...berto will win by domination

 

this fight will prove again for the 100th time that hatton sucks at 147...great at 140 but bad at 147 when he fights real guys

 

+1

 

I think this will be a close one, but I'll say collazo by close ud.
This fight will tell us a lot about berto.

 

I think berto has too much speed for Collazo.

I voted for Berto by UD, but Berto hits hard and even though Collazo wasn't hurt by Ricky when he knocked him down; I could see Berto possibly stopping him.

 

and still as sucky at 147 as Hatton is, he's ONLY beaten Collazo at that weight.

so what does that say about Collazo?

Berto is a much harder puncher then Luis, and this fight will show.

 

Can you tell me how Collazo can win a decision against DiBella fighter ?

 

Good point...a robbery might be shaping up

 

Im really high on Berto. He has every offensive weapon. I think he is too quick and too strong for collazo. His right hand will find Collazo all night and he will stop him quite easily.

 

Quality post. :good

People continue to underestimate Berto for several reasons but the criticism whether it's justified or not won't change the fact that he is faster, stronger, and has better stamina then most of the fighters in his division. He has the physical tools to elevate himself to become world class; it's just a matter of him becoming a smarter fighter by ad******g and out thinking his opponents when needed. He has shown improvement in these areas in his recent fights and he'll have to against a slick fighter like Collazo.

I think Berto will outwork Collazo to a UD, perhaps a late stoppage.
