    Look Teath you know i am a fan of Berto but if he trys to trade blows with Mosley he going to get knocked out i mean he is still green as for Mayweather he would win but there is no way he do to Margrito what Mosley did to him tonight i know your not a fan of Mosley but that fight with Cotto could of gone either way and Mosley hits hell alot harder then Pac does all i am saying is i think you should give Mosley some credit because Cotto and Cintron could not hurt Margarito but Mosley had him wobbling all over the place i mean Margarito got lite up big time.

    Mosley knocks Berto the fawk out!To strong inside,accurate and riding HUUUUGE momentum off tonight.Berting off so-so wtf descision where his defensive lapses were glaring and he raised more questions than he answered.
    I am betting you that Shane wouldn't stop Berto, he isn't landing those punches he did on Margarito on Berto. He was having a hard time landing really clean punches on Collazo while Berto did with ease. MOsley was lucky that Luis broke his hand, because him being southpaw and being so quick really gave SHane problems early, then Luis stopped punching. You want to see defensive lapses? Watch Mosley-Wright I and II, Watch Mosley vs Cotto, MOsley vs Vernon Forrest I and II, Mosley vs Vargas I. That is a guy who is easy to hit. Berto may have had defensive problems but Collazo was still landing under 30%, and he hardly landed at all when they were actually boxing. Berto has a way better jab, he is faster than MOsley, a better boxer, he hits harder, I say he can take Mosley's punch, and he is in just as good of shape.

    Watch Mosley-Estrada and then Berto-Estrada and you will see who has more power, who is faster, who is better.

    If Mosley-Berto ever comes to pass I am betting 100% on Berto. All the troubles Cotto gave Mosley Berto will give in tripples. He is way faster than Cotto, he has better endurance, he's tougher, he's harder to hit, and he hits harder.

    Also how would you think Berto would do against Forrest not well in my book and Winky would take him to school those arent good examples.

    Its funny that you mentioned it because, Winky actually sparred with Berto during his preparation for his fight against Ike Quartey, Berto was his chief sparring partner, and Berto more than held his own against Wright. Against Forrest, its impossible to judge that fight, Forrest definitely is super human, I mean look what Mayorga did to him. IMO Berto would give him a run for his money, and I am not saying Berto is the best fighter in the world, but he will be one of them soon, and stylewise Mosley will have terrible time against him. He hates fighting guys who are fast, guys who can jab, and nobody likes fighting a guy who is hard to hit, which Berto is when he is fighting normally(like against Forbes).

    Look Mosley has beat Berto best name on his resume in better fashion and when he was like 10 years older and not prime i not saying Berto would not go on to be great but come on him facing Mosley very tough fight. I dont think Berto can hurt Shane tell you the truth maybe he can but i know for damn sure if Mosley counters him with power shot it my be all she wrote for Berto in a way he kinda reminds me of Mosley and i like him but on that not sure just how good his chin is and he makes just as much mistakes and Mosley does if he trys to duke it out with him game over Berto while hit teh canvas faster then Margrito did wont be pretty.

    Shane pressures Berto? Berto is the higher output guy, and he isn't Margarito, he has way more skill and athleticism to back him up, if not physical strength, I mean this guy was a TOP running back prospect had he gone to college instead of going into boxing, people compared him to Warrick Dunn, obviously not the biggest guy, but still very powerful compared to most welterweights.

    IMO once again and I will agree to disagree he outboxes Shane, and makes Shane look like what he is, a boxer-puncher who isn't the best puncher or boxer out there.

    Berto has alot of gifts alot like Mosley but he tends to not take a step back and cant stay focused so that is his down fall not what he can do with his speed and power but how his mind set is this is a very mental game reason why Leonard was so good because he was very gifted with speed power and chin but he was also tough as nails and never gave in.

    Pressure him by walking through his shots constantly. and cutting the ring off...not by throwing a lot, simple aggression by stalking. Berto's stamina is suspect..and he doesn't have the power of shane. Shane would stop berto.

As for Shane, this is a great win to add to his HOF resume. By far one of his biggest wins and best performances.

    Margarito is terribly overrated, it wasn't just styles that make fights, Mayweather would own him. Margarito doesn't hit that hard, HE CAN be hurt, he needs to be allowed to throw punches.

    I wrote what I did after the first round. I am not sure if I said, but I also said after Margarito-Cotto this is exactly how Cotto should have foughten Margarito.

    The fact is Cotto is a million times better than Margarito, he just fought the wrong fight against the wrong opponent, and he isn't super durable.

    No, it's a bad matchup for Cotto. If Cotto have attacked Tony as aggressively has Shane did, Cotto would have been done in 5. Yes. Cotto a more complete all around fighter than Tony, but he's chinny and has only average speed. But you were still convinced that Mosley didn't have a chance against Tony. So let me get this straight, you really felt that poorly about Mosley? Cotto is a million times better than Tony...yet Shane lost to Cotto by one round. A very close fight in everybody's opinion but yours. Shane has won belts at 154, beaten Oscar 2x, Collazo (Easily, who gave your man crush all he could handle), Mayorga, and Vargas. Lost to a much bigger Winky by one round on two cards and drew with him on the other. And Shane only won because he clinched.

    Denial ain't just a river in Egypt.

Cotto and Mosley IMO were/are stronger, Cotto was able to muscle Margarito around when they were tied up, but then he would back away instead of staying in his chest which I said he should have done. I can't believe how easy this is.

    This why you can't idolize him, he is no JCC.
    Exactly! I have also compared Baldomir to Margarito if he ended up facing Mayweather. Both Margarito and Baldomir have power in their punches but not so much in the speed department.

    Don't play that game. It doesn't work. Mosley will KTFO Berto. If they fight, within the next year, let's have a little sig bet. For one month you change you name to BertoNugger and add to your sig "I am not worthy to watch Shane Mosley fight because I'm too stupid to appreciate his greatness."

    Throw anything you want at me. I'll change my name to "Sucks Mosleys Balls" or something like that. Whatever you want.

    i'd say it's the opposite, it just goes to show just how talented the welterweight division is, that anyone can beat anyone, like Kellerman said last week, no one is safe, in the welterweight division
