I think Dirrell won & is a potentially very good fighter, but Berto has a lot more for me, I don't think anyone who saw the Collazo fight could question his heart.
Collazo had already pushed mosley and hatton over 12rounds with both taking close decisions and i fully expected the same with this. Berto had to show a hell of a lot of courage in those last few rounds as he was losing the fight and could quite easily of lost the plot. Instead he went back to basics, stopped trying to knock his man out instead he used his superior boxing skills and in my eyes as well just nicked a decision.
Mosley struggled with luis also. This fight for me is won and lost on bertos ability to dominate with the jab over whether mosley can effectively pick his moments to counter berto and take him out as i dont think he can win a decision
Have you actually seen the Mosley - Collazo fight? It wasn't close at all.
i watched the unanimous decision commentary HBO gave him
Then i watched it in real time without the commentary and realised it was a hell of a lot closer than the final scorecards!
one dangerous horrible bloke
