Andre Berto: "Shane Or Margartio...I'm ready!"

[LEGION]

"Shane or Margarito... I'm ready."



For what? A beatin?

No doubt.

I still have questions as far as his chin is. Cosme Rivera{if I remember rightly} barely tapped him, or so it seemed, and the guy was looking in trouble. It's hard to hit him flush, but when he steps it up he's going to get those whiskers tested.

Let's commend him for at least saying the right things. I have a lot of faith that, win or lose, Berto will be amongst the elite at 147 pounds. I think it would be too soon for Margarito, but maybe he could handle Mosley. Both guys would be there for a full 12 rounds, but Mosley doesn't bring KO power. Berto's probably faster and let's be honest, by next year Shane will be 38(?) and if speed is your best asset, then a naturally bigger, younger fighter who's at least as fast as you has a couple ticks in the plus column. If he can beat Mosley impressively I see no reason why he shouldn't take on Margarito. I suspect his power is greater than Cotto's and with his style he might be able to keep Antonio off him. I have to see him fight Mosley before I'll believe that, though.
