Welterweights Beware: Andre Berto is for Real!

[pistonhonda]

Can't wait to see Berto take on some of the divisions best. His skills are nice and his power is crazy. I think he could make a big impact on the division within the next year or two. What do you guys think?

I like this kid. Hope he does well since the WWD is my favorite D.

What is the story on his amatuer background? Wasnt he suspended or DQ'd from the Olympic trials?

I agree, Berto is exciting to watch and up untill this afternoon I was a 'closet fan' of his but yeah! the kids def. got potential with great training and focus he can accomplish as he wishes just a matter of him putting all the tools together and going to work...

Thanks for read....

Berto looks good so far. But I don't think he's ready for the divisions best yet

[El Gamo]

he certainly looks good but lets not overhype the guy just yet,he has a loooong way to go before he can challenge the elite at WW.

True that Gamo. Give him few years though and i see him beating a lot of top ww's.

I'm not willing to say that just yet. He looks talented,that much is certain but I have seen too many prospects getting KTFO or not looking good(D Hop,Litzau,that Mexican dude whos name I have forgotten etc) to make such a big assumption as to say he will beat alot of top WW especially when you look at the top of the WW foodchain

I like Berto's attitude, he's focued and hungry. A slow but steady step up in comp will be nice to see over the next year or so. I'm excited to watch him, I think he's gonna be a good one.

[El Gamo]

I have to agree with that totally,if they can bring him up slowly,not rush him,that will certainly be to his benefit and also,that is one thing no one can take away from the guy,he has a great attitude.He seems hungry to me too. I feel like watching some of his fights,I'll be back later to post some more feedback.

He will end up a disappointment

[JT Rock]

I think very highly of Berto in and out of the ring. Dibella already said he is going to bring him up slowly and correct... I like Berto because he just dosent head hunt, his punch selection and combos are very good!!!! also if you watched the Figueroa fight he was wailing on the kid and he wasnt going down... So Andre would fire in about 5-6 clean hard punches on the ropes and then he would back up and reset knowing he was gonna have to break Figueroa down from an accumaltive standpoint not just an all out agressive onslaught... He showed alot of maturity in that fight... and eventually got the stoppage

Geezus Daxx its not like you to just make a short blunt comment without your expert analysis... I must say I'm quite perplexed about your ornery remark.... 









OH I know!!!!! The inlaws must be visiting and your sitting on the toilet with your laptop trying to hide and get some privacy

Maybe so, in a division so loaded with talent it is definitely possible for Berto come up short against some of the top guys. On the other hand I think he is ahead of Gatti and at least on just about the same level as Cintron. I"m not trying to crown this guy the next king of the ring or anything, I'm just saying his potential excites me.

Berto is a great combo of speed and power, he is destined for the top of the division if you ask me. Once he strats wrecking some better opposition you will see the skills. The boys good...I wish that the last fight with Tackie actually happened, that would have been a better fight to gauge his skill.

I couldn't agree more.
