    Wooow. Upsher rocked him and won when trading in second. Tight defense and came to win thus far. 1-1
    2-1 Berto back on attack. Upsher didn't do much in 3rd, waiting waiting.
    2-2 Even up again. Berto, again and still, is just way too easy to catch and his balance is bad. Frankly..he is where he was and think he'll stay there
    3-2 Berto back up. Really looking for bombs, jab looks good when used. Soooo much burned energy though. Upsher needs to punch with him again
    5-2 Berto . Upsher is going to kick himself in the hotel room later. When he throws...he lands and changes tide
    5-3 Berto in so so 8th. Not a lot to pick from. Upshers corner tells him for lack of a better phrase..get your head of your ass, he cannot fight backing up.

    Never was a fan but back in the day when hbo fed him these gimies he made to sure to like a beast against those, now he cant even manage that against this level of competition, but have to say hes been in some fun fights and has a ton of heart

    Tons of heart, no doubt. Always said he was rushed and 'learned' his mistakes...they became part of package. But all balls. Decent scrap

    6-3 Berto up. Upsher better decide go for broke or keep worrying about the monthly rent.
    Edit: Berto take the next largest payday and invest!

    99-91 across the board. Berto classy and realistic in interview. Going to be a hard road ahead

    I was impressed with Berto, both in his performance and attitude post fight. Seems like he's taken his losses to heart and is serious about making a come back.

    I know he wasn't in there with a world beater, but he showed great mechanics in there. When you have a guy with his natural speed and athletic ability who utilizes the jab so effectively, you've got a hard night for anyone in the division. Virgil has done great work with him. Nice to see him setting up with the jab and also jabbing out of exchanges. Not amazing stuff, but not bad at all for a guy coming off two losses/layoff/injuries/ect.

    I agree, Berto did not look that good to me either.
