Round 9
Ledderman has it 89-82...dont matter,unless Berto gasses out,he is not winning this one.Both exchange jab....Forbes backs up.Big miss with an uppercut from Berto,right off thr jab lands inside.Stong uppercut from Berto twists Forbes head.The enevitable has seemed to set in here.Forbes jabbing just to keep him off and Berto is content and doing what he wants when he wants

CLASSIC!!!
You got to love Merchant for throwing that comment in there about Floyd not fighting any welterweights. :lolhaha:
I can't wait till Cotto, Margarito or Clottey get a hold of this kid. Hell I bet Cintron lays him out.
Round 11
Forbes covering up,knocked sideways from Berto left as he comes in.Much clinching,Berto yells as he looks for highlight reel punch.Berto digs to the body,Forbes trying but Berto explodes at rounds end and catches forbes clean.Strong chin and will.Bertos corner tells him to "Not go to war" going into the 12th.
One of the reasons why I missed himQuote:

Let's see if he calls anyone out.
I'd like to see him fight Cotto.
round 12
:tumbleweed: Mentions from crew of Jones/Mayweather....come on guys.Merchant says they are reaching Lol.Headclash,Berto check himself.Berto takes this one wide in closing Imo.Its over.I still have a few questions concerning young Berto.
He ties up way to much and Can he fight backing up when he is pressured at the top tier...and he will be.Nice athletisism and can work the ring.Forbes should be payed double.
118-109 118-109 116-111 Unanimous for Berto
I agree, Berto just rubs me the wrong way, plus he still hasn't proved all that much to me, even with this win again Forbes.Quote:

This is a guy who is naturally smaller than Ricky Hatton and Malignaggi fighting guys much bigger than him.
He should move down to 140 where he would be a legitimate threat.
Berto looked good but I'm still not sold on him. He's a good, hard working honest kid but for some reason I sense a somewhat weak chin and believe he'll get steamrollered by an elite fighter like Cotto, Williams or Margarito.
If Mayorga upsets Mosley ?? I'd love to see he and Margarito :fight:.Alright,JK.
He is humongous tonight.170 lbs compared to Mosley at 160 tonight.WOW
Theres two RBR's going at once :p
Mayorga is a light heavyweight right now walking into the ring...
