    I think one thing that's easy to forget to factor in is his size. The guy sweats down majorly, probably as much as Paul Williams does, to get to welter. Look at that body- at only 25 it won't be able to stay in the division forever. He'll move up at least one division before 30.

    He's not tall though, only 5 ft 7 I believe. I imagine welter is his natural weight class.

    I have doubts about him holding his own against the biggest guys at welter, if he moves up to face Daniel Santos, Joel Julio, James Kirkland and Alfredo Angulo I have to say I wouldn't fancy his chances much at all.

    I'd fancy Santos, Kirkland and Angulo especially to all knock Berto out inside 7 rounds.

    Just rewatching it for 3rd time.Why all of the waiting around and holding late,I just dont get it.He really was looking to sharpshoot in spots and .....I dont know,nit picking a bit but he really seemed to be caught up in the moment and quite honestly,I think he could have done some serious damage had he pushed the issue and made a huge statement.Maybe it was the big stage but he seemed very uncertain in between rounds.....time will tell?

    Why is everyone raining on Taeth's parade?


    Berto is a good prospect, lets see him progress a little before throwing him to the wolves.
