    Lots of very good points made in this thread. All in all, I think Berto learned a lot from this fight and it will benefit him in the future. He learned that he needs to practice fighting on the inside, or else he needs try to avoid the inside altogether. He also learned that he needs to sustain his attack to the body instead of excessively head hunting. I think he'll grow from this fight and his hand speed to is too nasty to not keep him near the top of the division for the next few years. He's legit and a special talent... my old soccer coach used to tell me, "I can't teach you speed, and I can't teach you heart, but I can teach you everything else." The good news for Berto is that he can easily improve on his current weaknesses, and he already has the intangibles you cimply can't teach. He's tough as nails, has the heart of a champion, has heavy hands, and has world class hand speed. He has all the tools for greatness, he just needs to re-tool his approach a little bit.

    Yes i noticed. Berto didn't pick up on that, otherwise he would of continued to attack the body.
