Ya, I think HBO wanted the Berto fight. Problem is, since the Pavlik-Williams fight is still a possibility, HBO didn't have the type of money available that Berto was looking for.

Plus, Berto and his team are probably thinking "Why rush?" If Mosley beats Clottey, then they can do Mosley-Berto in 2010, and Mosley is only getting older.
