    If we're lucky we get a rough copy of the first fight but probably it's more like an FNF fight where at least one of them has just turned up for the cheque and bails out at the first opportunity. I thought Berto was shot to bits the fight before Mayweather but I thought he looked decent against Floyd.

    Berto is in better form currently. I wanted him to put some serious hurt on Floyd but it seemed they had an "understanding" not to hurt one another too much.

    Man talk about guys that i thought would turn out better then they did. They both had so much talent but one lacked heart and the other was a rushed product they both did ok but man that could be so much better then what happened. The fight should be pretty good though they throw down a lot.

    Berto and Ortiz i do not think you could even call left overs because of the people they lost to before hand and must under whelming fights with with Mayweather that i have seen almost as much as Pac. I not am sure how big fan base Ortiz and Berto even have at this point to make the money.

    Yeh I'm with consensus as they are doing what fighters do and its a convenient match with some history. Can't fault the either as its Al Haymon just sifting thru the in house recycling bin trying to push winner into another opponent role. Berto should have far more left and did sound pumped and focused in Tuesdays interview. Both were rushed to market early in careers and Berto is the poster child for a guy who's mistakes became a part of his skillset as much as a jab. I'm really not sure the other hand that Ortiz committed himself one hundred percent to the sport and fell in love with a cheesy smile and celebrity. Not to mention his chin is checked with the regularity of a ballot box and has suffered some kittens in his chest.

    Love the way you write your posts. So true.

    Evidently Berto called Ortiz a fag for getn too close to his lips in a face off and now must apologize to the entire gay community as well as profess his love for gay people.

    I'm not making this up.

    There's no place in the sport for such intolerance.

    I'm excited for this match on Saturday.

    I almost want to root for Ortiz. He's just such a fuck up male bimbo scatterbrain that I feel sorry for him.

    I like Berto too and he's gotta be the favorite here to stop Victor.

    Agreed with this, Kabong and Spicoli. Sometimes fighters don't lose because they're exposed or shot. I think sometimes fighters lose because they dared to be great when called to task. Neither fighter passed their tests, but at least they took their tests on our time, not theirs.
    All's lost! Everything's going to shit!

    Perfect crossroads fight for both and the first fight was pretty damn good. I hope both fighters come in healthy and clean.

    This would surprise me if they came in as the old adage says that this is the one more good fight they have left. The only problem is what hapens after to either or both of them after that one good fight left in them.

    That's just it. A win win for promotion as winner will surely be in 'name' opponent role. Today a part of me hopes Ortiz can manage a repeat though, he seems to think the welters are not on his level . Pretty dumb pop off for a guy last seen falling ground level in last 3 name type fights.
