    Anyone else wonder this?
    Has Berto spoken on this yet?

    I defo understand the WBC is creating this belt to ensure a 12rd fight.
    (+ to award the winner of this superfight, But what happens after?)

    Winner should face Berto, IMO.

    If your referring to the 'diamond' belt its not a WW belt as such its a belt for 'elite fighters', its trying to cash in on catchweight fights basically

    the title will only be worth something should Cotto win ... then it could be talks that Cotto can be the madatory for Berto.

    That would prob be worse then, IMO...
    Berto should be the elite fighter if he represents them.

    You're right. They could have ***** slapped him, taken his belt, given it to Pac/Cotto and it would mean just about the same.

    They just don't give a **** about Berto. Or about integrity for that matter.

    I thought I was the only one who felt this way.
    I'm with you bro. IMO, Berto is being disrespected here..
