    Overrated.Fast puncher.Collazo will ''expose'' him whatever that means.He will beat him anyway.

    Undecided, Tho if marketed right (Like PBF) He could remain undefeated for a while.
    He show's some flaws, But has yet to face anyone who can expolit them without getting Knocked out.
    which is a + for him.

    I look foward to his next fight's..

    Floyd won his first world title at 21 in only his second year as a pro, and fought at a championship level ever since. Floyd was put through the fire, and it started at a young age. Berto has not yet been truley tested. I see a lot of things I like in Berto but I'm undecided on him. The Collazo fight will show something about this kid. I want to see him against some better fighters before I make a definitive assesment.

    There needs to be an option that says "he's most likely gonna be the top guy in the WW division once PW & AM officially leave. & his future does seem promising, but calling him a great is way too early."

    And it's "Future Great" in the poll.

    Future champion no doubt but will be beaten a time or two in his career.

    People who can see the future, if it's a future in reality.

    He's entertaining with a fan friendly style and fast and powerful. Right now, sky's the limit for him.

    He is as good as it gets offensively, once he gains more experience, he will be p4p #1, count on it. He is the future.

    We know the powers that be are pretty high on the kid. ESPN was trying to adopt him, HBO has stuck with him, and some info posted by Reg confirms Sports Illustrated was told by the top people in the industry that Berto was/is a future star. I don't agree, but that's besides the point. :lol:

    ESPN the magazine is doing the story, not SI. Anyway, they better hope he wins this fight.
