I do feel it was closer a win for hop than the first meeting would have been without the kds.
I watched it after I knew the results and had listened to everyone heap praise on Hopkins, so I expected it to be a lot less competitive. I believe I actually had Pascal winning by a point or two when I scored it.

Re: Jan Zaveck vs. Andre Berto fight thread - on HBO tonight
Anyone know the over/under on how many times Mayweather drops Ortiz with a counter punch?
I'm going to guess he gets dropped twice.

Didn't have it that close, hop still won for me but it was a close fight. I felt in the first fight tho hop basically schooled pascal and the kds and some homecooked judging cost him a win.

I definitely thought Hopkins deserved to win the first fight.

One counter right. Maybe a body shot.
I read that horribly, my bad.

Re: Jan Zaveck vs. Andre Berto fight thread - on HBO tonight
Zaveck has some fans who showed up, come on dude, give Berto his 2nd loss.

Hmmm, i'll say zero times, Mayweather isn't that big of a power puncher.

Re: Jan Zaveck vs. Andre Berto fight thread - on HBO tonight
We're going to see Berto - Ortiz II. Gauranteed.
-
And just decided I'm rooting for zaveck since he's from a former yugoslav country like myself haha.

I believe he's coming to fight, we'll just have to see how good he is.

Re: Jan Zaveck vs. Andre Berto fight thread - on HBO tonight
who is this ref? Never seen him before.
War Zaveck!!!!
-
Re: Jan Zaveck vs. Andre Berto fight thread - on HBO tonight
Both guys have landed some good shots in round 1. Berto with the bodywork and Zaveck landing a couple of nice head shots. Berto very well may win this fight and move forward, but he needs to improve his defense.
-
Baldo could teach berto a thing or two about footwork, its still terrible. Looks stronger than zaveck
-
Re: Jan Zaveck vs. Andre Berto fight thread - on HBO tonight
Have always said it, Bertos legs are way to tweety bird thin for as top heavy as he fights.
I think Berto has to be the one fighter I've been most critical of for at least 2 yrs...he is horribly overstated and accident prone in the big picture.

he is squared up so damn often!!!!
Zaveck trying to weather this early storm by being tight with the guard and letting Berto punch himself out a little bit at times.
-
Re: Jan Zaveck vs. Andre Berto fight thread - on HBO tonight
This is a much better fight then I would have guessed.
-
Re: Jan Zaveck vs. Andre Berto fight thread - on HBO tonight
Berto is landing some nice body shots. Can Zaveck land a right hand up top that does some major damage before these shots wear him down.
-
Zavecks dropin berto at some point in this fight, and berto is becomin the king of holding.
-
Re: Jan Zaveck vs. Andre Berto fight thread - on HBO tonight
Who wants it more type of fight will be telling later... Jans got a short left hook that might do it .
-
Re: Jan Zaveck vs. Andre Berto fight thread - on HBO tonight
is it just me or does Berto have no defense whatsoever?
Berto just throws power shots in flurries. He gets punched out because he is so muscular and throwing so many power shots.
Then Berto has to take a break and his opponents can come back and he just stands there (all squared up).
-
Re: Jan Zaveck vs. Andre Berto fight thread - on HBO tonight
Berto ain't going anywhere big...he's already been there. Hope he got lots of profile pics and hotel hand towels.
Berto = Meldrick taylor ?!!!!!? I just threw a bottle at my TV

Re: Jan Zaveck vs. Andre Berto fight thread - on HBO tonight
Berto seems like one of those athletes who has a little sprint, then needs a rest, then sprints, then needs a rest. He doesn't seem to able to get a constant flow going.
-
Re: Jan Zaveck vs. Andre Berto fight thread - on HBO tonight
I fucking loathe Max Kellerman. He doesn't even pretend to be objective. It's like he writes a script before the fight even starts and just follows it.
-
Re: Jan Zaveck vs. Andre Berto fight thread - on HBO tonight
Berto is throwing punches with serious intentions, it's like he's trying to get Zaveck out of there early, that might end up being a mistake.
-
Re: Jan Zaveck vs. Andre Berto fight thread - on HBO tonight
Bertos round.doing more work now, but can he go all the way like that?

he is carrying alot of muscle. And he doesn't vary his punches. He throws alot of hard shots. Reminds me of Pascal in terms of build and throwing so many hard shots that can tire a guy out.

Re: Jan Zaveck vs. Andre Berto fight thread - on HBO tonight
Here comes the idiot wrestlin fans chanting "Usa Usa Usa" :p....pick your battles.

Re: Jan Zaveck vs. Andre Berto fight thread - on HBO tonight
This dude ain't gonna last. Berto is beating the crap outta this guy. Still don't see how berto in any way relates to being able to beat floyd but ok......
-
Re: Jan Zaveck vs. Andre Berto fight thread - on HBO tonight
hope berto remembered to take his steroids today...
-
Re: Jan Zaveck vs. Andre Berto fight thread - on HBO tonight
I usually don't mind Max but this fight is as if he's licking from Berto's ball sack... Fuck Berto and Max Should form a group of over hyped boxers and call them the Berto-Max like a worthless VCR or Beta tape
-
Re: Jan Zaveck vs. Andre Berto fight thread - on HBO tonight
Berto fights nobodies.... he will get KO'd by anyone of value.... even Floyd would KO this slow joker
-
Re: Jan Zaveck vs. Andre Berto fight thread - on HBO tonight
Not to the same extent but Zaveck's like Russell. If he moved his feet more when they other guys punching he would be so much more elusive. Just standing still covering up everyone now and then
-
Re: Jan Zaveck vs. Andre Berto fight thread - on HBO tonight

Zaveck did it a few times in the round, needs to use that upercut more when berto is just holdin his hand and leanin in on him.
-
Re: Jan Zaveck vs. Andre Berto fight thread - on HBO tonight
Berto has no clue. I'm sorry but he doesn't
-
Re: Jan Zaveck vs. Andre Berto fight thread - on HBO tonight
Zaveck won round 4 on my card. Berto up 3-1 after 4 rounds.
Late in round 2 and in round 3 he has gotten closer. He is landing hte uppercut and getting off with some short right hands.
-
Re: Jan Zaveck vs. Andre Berto fight thread - on HBO tonight
Is Zaveck cut on both eyes?
-
Re: Jan Zaveck vs. Andre Berto fight thread - on HBO tonight

Oh fuck this is getin stopped, dam was a nice fight but berto ain't improved on nothin and basically was a shorter version of the collazo fight, zaveck was yellin no no, but sometimes corner has to do what's best for the fighter, shoulda maybe gave him another minute. Bertos face cut his eyes probably
