Anyone catch the Berto fight?

Berto is a very exciting fighter, and seems like a nice guy too. I like him. However I really do think it is a joke and a bit of an embrassment for him to be called the WBC Welterweight Champion of the World, and have Floyd Mayweather's old belt.

If they were to fight right now, I would pick Kermit Cintron to KO Berto in the middle rounds.

We'll see though.

I say that should be Berto's next opponent. Personally, I think Berto would eat Cintron alive. Cintron's strong, but you got to be able to put gloves on the other guy to make him feel your power, whereas Cintron can be unraveled like a sweater.

I tend to agree that Berto definately has loads more boxing talent than Cintron, but Berto is far from untouchable, and I feel that Cintron could use his power well in the mid-rounds to a stoppage, and in fact if that's the next fight Berto takes, we could see Cintron holding a strap again.
I still think a better choice would be Collazo. Whatever happens he needs to avoid Margarito, Cotto and Williams like the plague for now.

cintron or quintana would be good opponents as some have said already.. I had to rewind that uppercut about 7 times before i could continue watching the fight.. was a thing of beauty..

berto definitely impressed me, but i have to agree that his defense looks a bit shaky at times, and a big puncher, or even a pressure fighter would possibly crack him.. it doesn't look like he has the elusive speed for defense, but that may also be because he has confidence in his power and just wants to stand in there with you and bang if he has too.. i will definitely be interested to see his next fight/opponent..
