    Berto is simply proven. Berto did bad things to fighters at the same stage of his career though. He only started to struggle when he met truly world class fighters.

    Brook's best win's probably Jennings man who ain't even really got a decent win at European level man just British .Alright he's been in with Cotto but got outclassed in a lucky WBO shot .Brook win the lonsdale belt outright impressively but Jennings failed to do that he got beat in his 3rd defence so really only a domestic level fighter .The next best fight for Brook when he win the lonsdale belt outright I think was Aydin but they took the WBO route when Aydin was EBU champ .Now Aydin might be getting a shot at Berto .Berto's well a class above just now man he's made 4 defences of his WBC belt against good opposition .Forbes Collazo Urango Quintana .I don't think they'll rush Brook that fast but I can't wait to see him step up

    Probably not, Berto would make hard work of it because he's ordinary enough, but he would win

    Yeah, but he's no journeyman.

    A good fighter who held gate in the division for a while. Rivera got as close to any world operator (top-ten type) in the modern era to winning a world title without actually winning it. He was more than handy.

    That video just reminded me of how mediocre Berto is. There's a reason the best guy he's beaten is Collazo, who he didn't really beat.

    if kell brook fought quintana, collazo or Urango he would have gotten layed out unconscious i think kell brook is all hype, and i think the first real fighter he faces will spark him clean

    Similar fighters really, in that they're rather physically talented but very flawed technically.
