He'll make some money...that's about it.
Berto will never see another title.
An Ortiz rematch would be nice :DQuote:

For sure, he'll probably be lined up for one last beat down. Athletic guy with a tonne of heart, but he never had the skills. He could be a test for someone moving up from 140, thinking Matthyse, Provo, Garcia, Crawford, Peterson, but I'd pick every single one of those guys over him. At 147 who can he beat? I bet Zab Judah could still whip him lol.
How I see it: official gatekeeping status.Quote:

Oh yeh, once the frame is bent a spray paint job and new tires is futile. Honestly he looked shot fight before Lopez. I think Haymon had a win win match where no matter the winner, both Lopez and Berto could push into a sellable opponent roll with fan friendly styles. No idea who he faces??? There was mention of Thurman. Nice knowing ya Berto. Can't knock the kid for big balls though, he's proving that many times regardless of glaring flaws never fixed.
It's always his last chance.
It's been that way for years now.
No, this will really be his last chance. :)Quote:

Zab has connections to get title fights. Berto does not.Quote:
