Berto will be way to much for forbes he not the Sugar Ray Leonard yet but give Berto some time and he may just make a good name for him self.

Steve Forbes took Oscar De la Hoya the distance and Oscar didn't look so hot vs him. Forbes can take a punch, Berto doesn't punch as hard as people would like to believe and being on this big of a stage and being young I think Berto is primed for a loss.
Either way Miguel Cotto needs to fight either one of them in his come back fight....and either way he wins by KO

Margrito i think ruined Cotto i think Cotto might end up like Vargas.
This will be a great fight.
Very hard and rugged i see Berto winning a close dec. Berto has hardly looked great when he stepped up to even semi elite level. I also have doubts on Bertos stamina.
Will be closer than many think.
The only thing Forbes HAS to do that he didn't vs De la Hoya was to up his punch output.
Vargas was a one dimensional fighter in love with his power...he didn't have ANY defense. Cotto fought a hard fight and had he stayed in and lost the decision I may agree with you but Cotto only had a couple rounds where he was really beaten up and so I don't think he's anywhere near washed up.
Cotto also didn't get startched by 1 punch either so I doubt he's going to be chinny or gunshy in his next fight either. When Vargas got beat by Trinidad he got floored a couple times early and then got smashed the rest of the fight...and vs De la Hoya he got his ass whipped over a prolonged period of time (albeit while winning many rounds).
