    He should fight Callazo. Callazo beat him and he knows it.

    Mosley is also looking for a fight . . . why look some where else? :think

    Cotto vs Clottey is set to happen . . . why can't Berto fight Mosley.

    Winner vs winner next = undisputed unified champ at 147. :deal

    I would love to see how he performs against a very skilled fighter like El Indio.

    That would answer a lot of questions about Andre Berto. I would also love to see a rematch against Luis Collazo...I think he deserves a rematch...i think the fans deserve a rematch.

    Due to the fact that the Luis Collazo fight was so close and controversial , I think there should be an immediate rematch. If that doesn't pan out, I would want to see him fight Mosley if Cotto v Mosley II can't happen. I just want to see him fight more top level guys, Berto is a young exciting champ, but still a bit green. I think he will get better, probably needs a world class trainer.

    so Cruel, but true... Berto is an exciting, rising star but still needs to learn a lot more before ever standing a chance against a guy like SSM, people forget that this guy is only 25.

    Berto is a good young fighter, but he probably will never be elite. He could be very good, though. Quintana would be my first choice. Carlos is hard to beat and tricky. You have to knock him out to win. He is not easo to figure out. As a learning experience, a Quintana match would be golden. Collazo is also a good matchup and a good learning experience. Once Berto gets through these type of fights convincengly, then he will be ready to take on the top guys.

    For one, Mosley is only willing to make himself available for a big fight and has specifically mentioned Cotto, Mayweather, and the Hatton-Pacquiao winner. I don't believe he views Berto as a big enough attraction to seriously consider fighting him anytime soon. Also Berto is slated to fight on HBO BAD in May which won't have the budget for a Mosley-Berto fight. That fight would have to be on HBO Championship Boxing or maybe even PPV.

    :yep :good

    Exactly . . . we shouldn't be biased . . . we're suppose to love the sport.

    If Berto wins . . . then star on his shoulder and he'll climb up in stature . . . if he'll lose then he'll have to work double time and recover lost grounds.

    He should prove he deserve that belt and title in the ring.

    i dont think urango would be 'disposed' of, berto would likely win via a ud, him and judah are light welters really
