    It's incredible how Andre Berto can KO some bum and all of a sudden be considered someone who could 'shock' Pacquiao :roll:, Berto has struggled everytime he has stepped up in class (Collazo anyone?) putting him in with Pacquaio would be like the Kevin Mitchell vs Michael Katsidis fight, a short brutal exposure.

    Berto beat Quintana who beat Williams who beat Martinez.

    He's in the mix with the best by default.

    Berto has improved since Collazo. It's time he went up against one of the top guys. Then we'll be able to make a real assesment . In the meantime the KO over Hernandez wasn't unimpressive. Sure Freddy wasn't much, but Berto took him out in no time flat. I'd love to see if he could hang with Margarito or Mosely.

    berto hands are to fast... pacquiao would struggle with the speed if berto was getting off first

    like him or hate him berto has some of the fastest hands in the game and nobdy could replicate that in sparring.

    pac def ain't knocking berto out... pacs only tko in less than 8 past 140 is against a shot to **** hatton....

    berto against anyone that is fast with a little bit of power sends him reeling into the ropes all the time. he trips over his own feet off balance from punches.. pac would surely be too much for him. especially at the echilon of opponents berto is fighting... i don't even see him getting past mosely or cotto.

    Berto is not a champion...just someone that likes to hold onto their belts...reeaal tight.

    One thing is for sure, Cotto wants no parts of Berto.

    It would end in defeat for Berto but it would not be as bad as Mitchell`s demise.Berto is world class he just aint got enough to beat a fighter like Manny.Berto would either by stopped by the ref or pulled by the corner in the late rounds.

    I wouldn't say easily. And Khan certainly doesn't have the power that Berto brings.

    That being said, Berto would gas and get KTFO inside 8 rounds.

    Whats Hilarious is that it was Pacquiao Fans who started that whole "CONNECT THE DOT" bull****!!! Remember this: "Pacquiao beat Hatton in 2, Oscar in 8 while it took Mayweather 10 to KO Hatton and got a SD versus Oscar...so therefore Pacquiao is Better". Pacquiao beat Cotto who beat Mosley first, and Mosley beat Oscar in which Pacquiao stopped Oscar and Cotto...blah blah blah.

    Yet when some stupid-ass posters uses that same "Connect-the-dot" bull**** to discredit Pacquiao....all of a sudden, it's just ridiculous...right?:-(
