    Default FNFs on 4/14

    I just read that Andre Berto is fighting on ESPN's Friday night Fights. I've seen him before, and some of you may have seen him on Showtime. If you haven't seen him, get a glimpse. I hope he's still on the card come fight time.

    He is an good looking US prospect. I think he's 11-0, with 8 kos. He's explosive with power, and decent speed. His defense looks good, and so does his chin, but they are still suspect due to him blowing guys out. Looks like he could be a Tyson or Lacy. Lets hope he learns well before he gets in over his head.

    He looks good, he's one of those guys that you wonder when he might be outboxed but he's definitley explosive and fun to watch

    I actually like the Cintron-David Estrada fight on the 19th, good crossroads fight between welterweight prospect/contenders

    Andre Berto will try to set you up for his straight right or his straight left. He will throw a lazy lead shot and then come at you with the rear hand. If he gets found out it will be by a fighter who could counter that. Just watch his rear hands since 90 percent of the time thats what he sets you up for. Basically he fights like Judah did against Rivera and Spinks(rematch)

    I've seen these flaws, and expect a boxer who can counter, with a little bit of "D", to expose him. He still has a punchers chance, and is exciting. But, these things are why I stated above that I hope he gets some good training{More tactics, more versatile}, before he gets too far in his career, and resorts to the only thing he knows. I'd like to see him fight some tough, veteran, good journeyman now, that will stretch him to ten rnds, and force him to adjust. Even if he takes a loss, it would benefit him in the long run. We get too many guys who get KO happy, then get exposed, and can't ever win the big one.
