    I honestly had high hopes for Berto, he had blistering speed which I was really impressed with. I have high hopes for Thurman too but you can never tell with certainty.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Same here, I had high hopes for Berto. I also had high hopes for Victor Ortiz and even Amir Khan, but eventually as their careers progress, people saw the flaws. All 3 never reached that superstar level, which only a few in the sport has attained.

    Berto has legs like a Flamingo.
    No wonder you like GG...lol

    Golovkin has the legs of a crack-addicted wheel-chair bound polio victim.

    Holyfield had slim legs, they are perfect for a fighter who needs the muscle on the top half of the body.

    Roy Jones had chicken legs too. Its not kickboxing so a person with stick legs can go far in boxing.

    There's not much coming through from what I can see. My list would be Easter, Waaren and Thurman but they don't have anyone who's gonna sell like PAC or Floyd

    I'm sometimes curious if Andre Ward can pull it of. Certainly not the top but become a superstar.At this point certainly not but I think he has the ability and talent to get there but at this point he has a Wladish style which will probably guarantee him a good record but certainly not endear him to the fans. Perhaps he can break through at some point, but I doubt it

    Berto was a lot like that, very top heavy. His problem wasn't thin legs it was having two left feet, practiced flaws and non development prior to reaching the top tier.

    I like the Charlo twins especially Jermell or is that Jermall? I'm a twin and both our names begin with K but damn.

    Good call! Jermell has the look and has really turned it up after a bit of a terd vs D. Hopkins. He boxed Rosados ears off and is showing a very active sharp jab in last couple. Combination punching looks solid. Dude is in a solid sleeper match with Charlie Ota on Stevenson undercard. Ota looks decent inside fighter but patchy and a bit inconsistent. The Charlos are hitting a stride!
