    Berto is like an upgraded version on Aydin , I haven't seen Guerrero vs Aydin so how did he looked in that one ?

    Pretty good for the first eight rounds, though he had to throw a lot of punches to keep Aydin from coming in. He did fade over the last third, allowing Aydin to close the distance on the cards.

    The difference is this....

    Aydin is much slower then Berto, but is much more durable and has better stamina throughout the fight. If may be easier for Ghost to keep Berto at bay if he boxes well than it was to keep Aydin away from him just because Aydin's the type of guy who isn't gonna go anywhere regardless of how many times you hit him.

    Wow! A lot of folks going with Rob....Glad people believe in him. he's a good dude with a great story. I honestly feel Rob needs to stay at 135.....140 at the highest. Berto is the biggest and strongest fighter Robert has ever faced. I wish him luck....I think he'll need it.

    :patsch Just stay the **** outta threads like this if this is all you're going to post. There's plenty of other pissing contest threads for you to **** up.

    Berto needs a knockout to win.
    The Ghost by decision or maybe by late knockout.
    Berto is strong but not in the Ghost's league.

    This from a dude who gets OWNED, and I mean turned the **** out, by a ***** over on Pacland. Dude I read Pacland and have for a long time, bro you are Donaire's wife's illegitimate ******* son. You can't even post over there without tucking your baby dick under and putting on a pair of panties. That said, shut your punk ass up, and get back over there, before I pm your dad and tell her you've been over here posting without her permission.

    I'm a Ghost fan, and have been for a while, but I think he's physically outgunned here. He will win chunks of this fight, but at the end of the day, I think Berto's speed and power will catch up with him. Berto is the biggest, strongest, and probably fastest guy he's been in with.

    Pretty much how I see it. Would be different if Ghost was naturally a little larger, but I think Berto's size might be the deciding factor here.

    Agreed, I mean Robert is your classic "over achiever", but at some point his lack of God given physical gifts is going to catch up. It's not that he doesn't have athletic ability because he does...but he doesn't have world class athletic ability, and at some point you hit your limitation. Robert will go out on his shield though, if he does in fact go out, should be fun.

    Bertos reach is the xfactor. if berto goes back to boxing instead of trying to be paul williams. he'll knock robert out within five. this is a mismatch. berto has to much of a reach advantage. couple that with his speed and its nearly impossible for robert to even get close to berto. and even if he does he cant hurt berto. look at the shots he took from ortiz. robert is a southpaw so he will eat straight rights untill he cant take it anymore. and that will be after the first one. lol

    True. If he loses, I think he has a good shot at being the man at 140 if he moves down. Hate to say, this is almost a lose-lose situation for Berto. But at least both guys are fighting, just grateful for that. This has potential to be a hell of a fight.

    I would agree with this is Berto used his reach to his advantage.

    I think this is solid analysis by the threadstarter....
    I could be totally wrong, but I think if Guerrero sees it past round eight, and he makes Berto work throughout, survives some rough spots coming...The Ghost wins a decision in an upset. I think Guerrero will attempt to circle away from Berto's right as much as possible...

    The bookies favour Guerrero to get a decision if it goes the distance...

    Ghost looked strong at the weigh in, dont see Berto stopping him. Guerrero UD
