    B. maybe B+ fighter.

    Around 5-7 at WW right now. Definitely would not pick him against the "Big 3".

    A real horrible hypejob... I expect him to lose his title within 12 months

    But he's already had it for 2 years. Exactly how long do you have to hold a title before you cease to be a hypejob?

    Depends on how many decisions you're gifted.

    Berto is a weak welterweight. I don't understand why some people really think this guy is A level fighter? Have you seen his last 3 fights, he has looked horrendous.

    Plenty of fighters are the beneficiaries of debateable decisions.Manny Pacquiao, Floyd Mayweather Jr., Shane Mosley and Paul Williams are all 4 of the best fighters out there. They've all been on the right side of at least 1 questionable decision.

    He was hyped as the next best thing...since winning the title and fighting better talent he has not improved a great he will never be. Its safe to say that he is not as good as he is claimed to be.

    B+ fighter, he has some flaws he needs to iron out...the question remains whether he will or not.

    i think Berto is a good fighter with great skills... i believe he will be the future of the WW division... he's got all the tools to continue his success... i don't see any other welterweights right now (besides mayweather and pacquiao) that i would favor to beat Berto.... the kid got skills!!!

    I like Andre Berto,he seems likes hes a nice guy,Gentlemen like

    But hes a flawed fighter,Im afraid hes going to get beaten soon

    Hes very lucky the fight with Mosley didnt go threw

    He was in for a beating in my opinion

    This but he has the chance to fix those flaws,and maybe beat those guys,1 thing is for sure Pac would not consistenly take his righthand like he took Cloteys,it would be lights out.:D
