Robert Guerrero vs. Andre Berto - Saturday night fight/chat thread

[IamInuit]

Robert has the better boxing brain by far and Berto has the speed along with sharp punching.I just remember how much Aydin caught him and he's a turtle compared to Berto. The difference between Berto and Aydin is that Berto is going to catch Robert with punches he does not see coming.Unless Robert can hurt Berto I think he's getting stopped.

It's a contest of power against guile and I have never really been all that impressed with Berto. He never seems to improve or show anything new. I'm supporting Guerrero. Guerrero has the smarts and the nouse, but he will get hit and it's all about keeping to the gameplan once he has been tagged. If he can stay smart, he can get a decision.

In the co-main event I like Keith Thurman and he's got a good puzzle in front of him with Quintana who looked good the last time saw him.

Quintana can be prone to getting stopped early like in the Paul Williams rematch and the pasting he took from Cotto.

When I first saw Thurman I didn't want to like him as he is another cocky prospect, but I see a touch of vulnerability and honesty in his bravado the way Fernando Vargas used to be.

If Thurman's power is for real then he should be able to get Quintana outta there early, but if he doesn't then it could be a looooong night with that tricky, herky jerky lil bastard.

Everybody has a plan until they get punched in the face

Robert got caught by punches he knew were coming against Aydin. Its the punches you don't see and I think he is going to be blind sided. Berto's chin is a little dodgy and that's his only hope.
