    I think the fight would be stopped on a little cut to Berto in the 6th

    The fight wouldn't happen in the UK, so that's not very likely.

    Funny thing is, since his fight was in the UK, his US fans won't be affected much, Khan/Berto could sell really well.

    You might be getting ahead of yourself..... This will tell us alot about Berto... Berto has only fought one legit top contender (Collazo) and alot of people thought Berto lost (i had it a draw) IMO the jurys still out on him being an elite fighter.... I mean we all know hes talented, but we dont know if he is elite or the potential.... Same with ORtiz, this is his chance to live up to expetations, and quite down all the critics and fans who hate him for quitting,. I was really big on Ortiz before Maidana and he could have easily won that fight, but fought stupid, then he does the opposite and boxes and moves against Peterson? If he comes in with a game plan in betwen the one who fought Maidana and Cambell,Peterson , i think he can win this fight. But so far he hasnt proved to be mentally strong and seemed to lose confidence after Maidana.. He might just turn it around maybe all the fan bashing and Rios winning a title before him will light a fire under his ass, he sure looked mentally ready and confident yesterday.......

    To answer your question on how Berto (or Maybe Ortiz) does against Kahn. This is the best fighter each guy has fought, so well find out. IF Berto or Ortiz look poor in a win, then you have to favor Kahn.... But if one of these guys scores an explosive Ko or dominant win, you might have to favor the bigger man... Both ORtiz and Berto can punch,... Kahn proved a little something in taking Maidans shots, but im not sold on his chin yet.. MAidana hit him alot but really not with his money shot (like the one he nailed ORtiz with).

    True Khan stood up to a couple decent shots from Maidana, but Berto is better than Maidana in every way. Power, smarts, shot placement and selection. Berto would be too much for Khan's shaky chin and he gets KTFOed. Khan would never agree to fight Berto though so don't worry about it.
     
  7. Berto in 3. And I don't rate Berto.

    Yey But KAhn will be fill out to being a natural welter in the near future...Lets see if his chin holds up though.

    GUys like Oscar,shane,manny,Leoonard,Chavez etc etc could do it because they all had great chins.. Mayweather,WHittaker,Benitez are just so damn slck.. Hearns was a freak of nature... But for the most part you need a chin. WHy do you think Terry Norris never fought the big names at MW? THey were around and some lucrative fights too.,.. Instead Norris wanted all the welters and even JW (Chavez) to move up.

    I still put Berto and Ortiz at slightly better than even money to beat Khan. Folks place too much emphasis on the last thing they have observed. In this case, Victor, who's a very capable fighter by the way (and check my comments about him after the Maidiana fight; I am not jumping on the bandwagon), defeated Berto so now the latter is junk and the former is a superstar.
