Chino listed Berto as a possible for for late Summer Would be a guaranteed WAR WHO YALL GOT?! I think Chino is too tough hits too hard. Berto lost to common foes Ortiz/Soto Karassx while Chino KOd them.
Haymon / Berto are in a Catch 22 type situation here. Berto is the WBA #1 ranked fighter and has a chance to fight Thurman or Mayweather. Very highly unlikely with Berto's injuries and career path to date, that Mayweather would take the fight. (Swan song or passing the torch type of fight for Floyd perhaps is the only viable way). Or: Does Haymon realize that Berto can not compete against the upper echelon fighters and cash him out against Maidana...??? Thne use Berto as a measure-stick type fighter to see how his other up-and-coming fighters are...??? Either way Haymon will look like a genius and Berto will look like a fool...!!!
Not only that but Berto is so robotic in the ring and lacks skills. He will get obliterated by Maidana in a few rounds.
Maidana by late stoppage i think. Berto is under-rated on this forum. Hes fast and has far more heart than people admit. Maidana still wears him down I think
purely a tune up fight for Maidana to get him back with a win, cant see Berto winning this one. Berto is better off rematching Ortiz while he stil lcan
Berto is still good enough to beat the C listers . . . barely When you compare common opponents Berto doesnt fair well
Chance for Berto to gain some momentum. Chance for Chino to solidify his current standing. Make this happen.
