Shaefer: "Canelo back MAY 4TH, either Mayweather, Cotto, Martinez"

Floyd fights only once a year, you know who that means...

 

When is the Berto/Guerro fight taking place?

 

Exactly what I expected. December will be an important month for boxing

 

Fairly confident Floyd's not fighting again. And I don't think Martinez will be healed considering he torn ligaments and he's ****ing 37-38 years old? Cotto/Trout then, but I wouldn't be surprised if it's Berto.

Canelo / Berto would be a good one too.

 

Not for a $60 PPV. Berto doesn't belong onm that stage after his failed UA. Not to mention, despite being a former 'titleholder', he's done very little as a pro. Feasted on too many hand fed opponents.

 

Yeah I said this to you the other day, I was pretty sure Canelo was holding out till next year.

 

Canelo would beat the dog**** out of that roided up cheater. Berto has no infighting game. None.

Martinez probably won't be good to go until later in the year. Mayweather won't fight until the piggy bank next to his bed runs out. So that leaves Cotto for May 4th. He'd better get by Trout, I'm dying to see Canelo/Cotto.

 

I think stylistically - Saul/Berto would have a competitive bout. Saul's short arms would mean Berto could touch up his untested chin.

 

Alvarez destroying average fighters from 140 is not the same as a big Berto

 

Huh?

Berto isn't even a big welterweight.

 

Funny you should say that, considering Tree was a 140 pounder himself, moved up, and beat down Berto. Ortiz also rehydrated to the 160s, and Berto rehydrates to the mid 150s. He even has a shorter reach and is shorter than Canelo is. Canelo rehydrates to the high 160s usually. He's very thick and powerfully built at 154.

It doesn't matter how juiced up Berto is for the fight, Canelo is still a lot bigger and stronger than Ortiz and has superior handspeed, combination punching, power, and technical skills.

He'd beat Berto down inside of 8 rounds.

 

#teamPrinceN fight Canelo vs Mayweather who do I choose?

 

Ortiz is southpaw and Canelo isn't. Canelo isn't a boxer and will slug it out. Berto is normally at a big disadvantage in reach, but he won't be versus Canelo. I'm not saying Berto will win, but I think it will be more competitive than what you're making it.

Also, Canelo's been ****ing wobbled by much lesser fighters. Berto's got more power in either hand than Cotto (Jose) and would put Canelo in a bad spot if he catches him.

If ****ing Matthew Hatton can wobble/hurt Alvarez, you've got to be smoking crack if you don't think Berto can do more.

 

Mexico vs. Puerto Rico on Cinco de Mayo. War Cotto!
