hbo cant possibly try to replay the wright vs. quartey fight (being that it was free last week) and they have some time to fill before the jt/ouma fight, so does anybody know what fight (if any fight) is coming on first?

Yeah, its Andre Berto from Winter Haven,Florida vs. Miguel Figueroa from Camden, N.J. This kid Berto is the real thing!!!!
Andre Berto vs. Miguel Figueroa last I heard/read......
I agree. I like him a lot better than Andre Ward and Andre DirrellQuote:

So you reckon he's the best Andre out there right now VD? Never heard of Dirrel and dont know much about Ward so I'll agree with you.Quote:

They didn't broadcast the Augustus fight?
As a whole...I've never been that impressed with Berto...I have issues with just jumping in on the prospects...but if he works on his defense a bit...the kid's gonna be unbeatable...but he's gotta figure out how to shut some of the doors that he leaves wide ass open.Quote:

Double edged swords'll cut you every time. ;D
Seriously though...he's got potential.
Yes I do. I like Berto best, followed by Dirrell and than Ward. I'm not high on Ward, yet.Quote:

The way Berto was going you'd a thought that he would have finished Figueroa sooner but it took him a while. Actually for a bit he reminded me a bit of Lacy. Except Berto did throw a jab....
Berto impressed me. He is a monster in the ring. Devastating puncher.
