Mosley-Berto Set for Jan. 30

[jdonaher1]

Not sure why this bout took so long to finalize since neither one of these guys had anything else lined up. I think this is going to be a excellent fast paced boxing match. I'm going to say Shane uses his veteren experence and gets a close decision.

I'm assuming the WBC title won't be on the line since Berto was supposed to have fought Collazo first. Maybe some step aside money and he gets the winner??

I believe this will be for the belt only if Mosley apologizes to the WBC for fighting Margarito. No lie. I'm really excited for this fight.

[Jesse James]

Shane is gonna wreck Berto.

[blegit]

Yeah, unless Shane's age has shown up over the last year he will give Berto the business.

[JazMerkin]

I'm in the minority, but I think Berto outboxes Shane to take a very close split decision. Reason being that you can prepare for Mosley because you know how he will fight. With Berto he looks a different fighter every time he gets in the ring & if he can avoid squaring up, I think he makes it a very difficult night for Shane.

[TitoFan]

I believe (and hope) that Mosley will brutalize and eventually KO Berto.

[Spicoli]

I think Mosley will do bad things to a still somewhat raw Berto.Bertos falling in will be key.Half the time it seems Andre does not even know how he himself will fight.Age taken into consideration,way to many flaws for a top tier calibur type Mosley to exploit.

[kingfrnk]

cant wait for this one. Berto is gonna pull this one off.

[Kel]

Hope Shane smashes this guy, Berto is not good for the sport anyway.

[Taeth]

Yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is going to be a fucking awsome fight. People are selling Berto way too short thinking that Mosley will just curb stomp him. I think Berto will give Shane a very difficult fight because of his style and speed.

[Taeth]

What's wrong with Berto? He has heart, he fights like a warrior, and he has amazing athletic abilities. To boot he is a really nice guy, I think he is a little too cocky, but he's very nice and down to earth (for a guy who's kind of cocky).

[armin]

I think it'll come down to berto not being able to take what shane can dish out and shane being able to take it. In a way I think the two have a similar style in that their both superbly fast but not as fluid in motion as you would think for being as fast as they are...

He will fall at the feet of Shane, also no one gives a fuck about him. He has made no noise or captured the imagination of anyone that I know of.

Of course everyone has their own opinion on boxers, but you have not given any particular reason why he is bad for the sport apart from, and in your words, no-one gives a fcuk about him, well i do, and im sure others do also ! fairly short sighted pal


Anywho,


Good fight which Mosely should come through without too much drama, he needs this if he has any chance of getting messrs Cotto, Manny or Gayweather.

I agree with Taeth Andre Berto is being underrated here, he has a great snappy jab something Shane Mosley struggles with. There both pretty equal in the speed department, the only thing with Andre Berto is that he isn't a great inside fighter, and he often squares himself up too much on the inside.

Although he did clinch more in his last fight on the inside, im not sure if thats an improvement though. I still think Andre Berto's chin hasn't been tested yet, and we will find out how strong his chin really is. I think this is a pretty even match up, i have no idea why Andre Berto is being sold short here.
