    I'm ok with Mayweather vs. Berto on CBS but def not ppv.

    It'll be about like Oscar vs. Forbes.

    Haymon n the gang will probably be able to convince some casual fans that Berto is a real threat.

    I have never paid for a ppv in my life so don't care if it's free, it's still Andre Berto.

    Spot on hulkster. There is a lot of playing on that Reality tv motif in this thing. I really think Floyd is doing this for Al and to capture the tv audience as you point out.

    I also think its a tricky fight. I again don't think it matters how Berto did in the past. He is a gifted fighter by way of born with speed and power. People get into a different mind set for Floyd. A mind set that seems to be lacking against others.. Maidana is a great example. I thought it would be a complete tar and feathering by Floyd.

    I've always looked at Andre as Mosley 1.5 while attempting to be Shane reborn. Having said that, I think he's a fresher version then the Shane Floyd fought.

    I like bradley.

    He even called out GGG.

    Won't see ggg doing that with ward.

    Floyd can do what he wants at this stage but at least end with a bang.

    Might get his first KO in 100 years.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Just to be clear... So everyone pays 100 bucks to watch him talk copious amounts of crap leading up to a customized (all his demands met) fight with Pacquiao so he could throw punches from his bike; But now he'll fight like the version of mayweather that fought maidana, cotto, alvarez again so we can watch him wipe his @$$ with Berto for free?

    Perfecting the art of Bait and switch... Maybe we'll get lucky and there will be a fight on the undercard.
    They want your @$$ beat because upsets make news. News brings about excitement, excitement brings about ratings. The objective is to bring you up to the tower and tear your @$$ down. And if you don't believe that, you're crazy.

    I will still pay.

    Perhaps we can get pac on the undercard against Algeri 2.

    Once he is gone, he will be missed.

    Joke of a fight. If it's on Showtime I will likely TIVO it. No way would I pay any money to see that farce. Floyd has had a great career and I'm not holding it against him to fight a weak opponent on the way out, but NO WAY in hell would I make an idiot of myself and pay for THAT. For the guys saying they will gladly pay to watch that farce, u must make some pretty damn good money to be happy to waste it. Or u r related to Floyd, one or the other.

    Berto holds a belt.
