    Clottey beats Berto at this stage i feel.
    Berto i would put in with Zab Judah next, if i was a part of his management.
    Stay clear of Margarito, Cotto, Mosley & Clottey for the time being.
    Depending how Mosley looks this wkend i guess he could be a future option for Berto also down the road.

    Actually, you highlighted a potential fight with Joshua Clottey, not Collazo. :)

    I'm trying to find an actual breakdown i did for the fight on anothther site where i post a lot more seriously. Not that it matters, i was still wrong.

    I basically predicted Collazo being awkward early, Berto winning the latter rounds. Taking it on a margin of 116-112.

    Anyway, point being the whups and dominates etc etc is all said for effect. Collazo is a very good fighter, i thought he would be tricky.

    The biggest thing i got wrong was how effective i thought Berto would be on the inside. His size and strenght, handspeed also i though would be better.

    He kept squaring himself up though, and couldn't let his hands go effectively. Collazo is very good from this position as well, i probably under rated him on the inside.

    I think quintana would be an excellent fight for him. Very tough fight once again.

    Thats debatable that i picked the winner... Most think Collazo should have got it. The point deduction was bogus but.

    Was a great fight anyway.

    It was a good fight.

    Poor Collazo but, he gets no brakes. I hope he gets a rematch asap.

    I think Vic's manager has organised for Lenny to fight on Showtime boxing later in the year. Lenny Zappavigna is Australia's number one up and comer, it will be great experience for him over there.

    Just watched the fight and scored it 114 -113 Berto including the deduction. Close fight but i think the result was pretty fair.

    Hope this happens, would be great experience and exposure for Lenny. He looks to have a bright future and this would only help his career.
