    Why when Berto stops quintana we can all agree he needs more work before being mentioned with the Elite at his division, but When Bradley can't stop Lamont Peterson who has a winning record full of journey man he's the hottest **** cooking?

    I'm still trying to figure out the hype associated with this guy, somebody please explain?

    I haven't noticed that much hype about Bradley. In fact, I've come across a lot of people who underrate him, suggesting he doesn't deserve a fight with Pac. I for one think both TB and AB can give Pac problems due to their high level of speed, power, and determination. Both are strong fighters. Berto has a bit of a ***** on his armor with his suspect chin though. I was rooting for Quintana but I'm glad Berto won impressively because it just means there's one more dominant fighter at 147. If Quintana had won it would've been a bit of a fluke because he's never really been known as a strong fighter.

    um.... no offense, but anyone with eyes can judge a performence for itself. a W is not the be all end all of the argument. Berto lacks so many dimensions to his game its not even funny, not to mention hes not the brightest fighter out there.

    Bradley, has HALF the natural talent, yet twice the skills.... if he had bertos speed, strength and explosiveness.... damn.

    I'd place Berto and Bradley in the same bracket to be honest, but the difference is that Bradley is fighting in a division that doesn't contain elite fighters like Pacquiao, Mayweather and Mosley. A Quintana level fighter would give Bradley all sorts of problems too.
