i thought berto looked worse than id ever seen him the other night, im not saying it was a bad performance but clay wasn't doing anything.
berto should realy have taken him out in 2-3 rounds.

yeah dude, i menmsioned it in the other thread. the fights are usualy replayed a week or so later so i'll get back to you then.tysonjones said:he might of just wanted to get some rounds in. does this mean you saw the fight tommy? let me knwo when you get it recorded .
thats pretty much what i thought about berto on sat night, to be fair to the kid though he's looked briliant when ive seen him in the past, i think thats his 4th fight in a row ive seen now.LeedsLad said:This is the first chance i have had to see Berto, and i wasnt as impressed as i thought i would be. I think it was more due to the level of opponent, but there were a lot of flaws. His left hand was down by his waist. A good fighter would have caught him with a good right easily.
It was commentated on the broadcast here than a Mosley or Cotto would really trouble Berto right now, and i really agree. I think hes a good talent, and maybe it wasnt his best display, but i think theres 2-3 more fights against better opposition before he can think about going for a world title.
And also, i think the ref was an idiot. He seemed to force Clay to come out to fight, it seemed obvious both Clay and his corner wanted no more of the fight.
I do think Berto has fantastic power and decent speed, but i think he is beginning to pick up bad habits from his krappy opponents.. he needs to step it up and fight some better guys.
I agree 100%. I keep saying he isn't ready for title shots yet but needs better competition.LeedsLad said:This is the first chance i have had to see Berto, and i wasnt as impressed as i thought i would be.
