Originally posted by ThePrince View PostI think Manny was going to fight Berto eventually, most likely next year after his Marquez rematch and a Bradley fight, but there was no way Top Rank was going to pass on a big money fight with a name commodity like Mosley who had just defected from their hated rival. Passing that up to fight some guy no one outside of Boxing websites had ever heard of, who had just fought a cab driver on the undercard of someone else's card is just terrible business plain and simple. Once the money fights were out of the way and guys like Berto built their name up, it would've been his turn at bat and he would've gotten Hatton'ed inside of 3 rounds.
But he blew it by getting DOMINATED by a 140-lber known for having no heart and quitting in the ring
Oh well, I think at this point we have a better chance of seeing Pacquiao-Cintron than we do seeing Pacquiao-Berto next year.

And I've been saying for a while that Berto was just a poor man's Mosley- has the power (not Shane's level) and hand speed, but absolutely no chin and apparently the 27 year old Berto gasses even earlier than the 39 year old Mosley
Dude's legs were jello after round 1 and he didn't look like he wanted to fight at all- kept staring at the clock, just holding, laying on the ropes, struggling to breathe, mouth wide open gasping for air. Victor Ortiz has more heart than Berto... think about that for a second
