    If by exposed you mean beaten then the back half of your list would suffice. Berto isn't ready fight an elite fighter yet because quite frankly he's not an elite fighter himself quite yet. As far as the rest of the fighters you've named, I would favor him against anyone of those guys right now.

    Collazo is underrated and is tough fighter who would give anyone at 147 a good fight. So there's no shame in going life and death with him.

    I like Berto alot but to be real I wouldn't "favor" him over Cotto, Mosley, or Clottey...He might make a good fight but I'd put my money on any of them over Berto...The rest on that list Berto beats...IMO Berto is the 4th best WW right now...If Floyd comes back than he's #5...

    $hit Berto might have to fight Floyd for his belt...all in all though I like ur posts as you don't hate on fighters and you know ur ****..good stuff:good

    I'm not too high on him but I'm not sure he'll necessarily be exposed. It might happen, sure, but he's a very talented young guy and all the flaws he makes can be corrected in the gym. What he should do is hire himself a good, world class trainer. :nod

    As soon as Berto fights a good fight. Hell, he lost his last fight!

    In my scorecard Berto lost his last fight. I am not sure if it means he was exposed. I have never thought he would stay unbeaten for a long time.

    " How long before Berto gets Exposed?"

    Eh, Collazo already exposed him as a guy who can be hit and is vulnerable to body shots.

    When he gets in the ring with a top welter, it should be soon

    He was already exposed on his last fight. IMO he lost to Collazo and it was a close fight just because of Collazo's stamina, he basically stopped punching in some rounds, and no it was not because of Berto.
    Collazo ain't a top welter, yeah he's a good test, but for all the hype Berto get's he's supposed to go past someone of that level without THAT much trouble.

    Collazo is a good fighter. He's not elite, but he's damn sure not an easy win. Even Hatton couldn't handle Collazo with ease. I would pick Berto over Cintron. He would need to survive the bombs from Cintron, but I think he could weather Cintron's punches. Berto would definitely hurt Cintron at some point and that would be the end of Kermit in that fight. I think a Mosley fight would be interesting. Each man's speed would be a factor for the other. Mosley can and has been hurt. It's not like he's invincible. He beat Margarito, and now he's God's gift to the welterweight division according to some opinions on this board. There's no way Mosley would just walk over Berto. A Berto fight with Cintron wouldn't be a step up, it would be no more than a lateral step. I feel the same about any other welter fight for Berto, excluding Cotto or Mayweather.

    Berto loses to Shane, Cotto and Floyd should he come back. Wouldnt mind seeing Berto fight Hatton though. I think his speed would be too much for Hatton to deal with along with his power. Would be a good scrap.

    i think Berto lost, by maybe a round or two...but i'm pretty sure he'd fight a better fight the next time around

    but on another note......plz, plz put Cintron in the ring with Berto, i'm 100% positive he would beat the **** out of him

    and i'd say him vs. Judah, Quintana, and Clottey would all be toss ups for me, but yeah...he aint ready for Cotto, Margarito, and Mosley
