    I do. Mosley is coming into this fight way too confident saying he could never be beat by Berto's style ever, that he is gonna knock him out in a few rounds, I really think Mosley is overlooking Berto and looking at the Mayweather fight on the horizon. But really, Berto could cause issues for Mosley if Mosley overlooks him and i get the feeling that Mosley is, it could be a ploy to get berto to make mistakes early but if Mosley is THIS confident against a young lion he could find himself losing.

    Mosley is getting old if he has taken Berto likely i think he will lose.Berto is a young decent undefeated fight champion he is gonna be confident he can beat Mosley.

    How was he lucky against Margarito? That was a beat down, luck had nothing to do with it.

    But yes I concede Berto has a better shot than most are giving him. The problem with Berto is his movement, it's just not very good. His handspeed is incredible though and may make the difference.

    For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.

    I'll take berto. I've never really been all that high on mosely and everyone can't do what hopkins does for as long as hopkins is trying to do it. At this stage i give berto a decent chance.

    Depends on what kind of roids Mosley's been able to get his hands on. If it was the stuff he was taking for the Cotto or Mayorga fights he gets beat, but if it's the stuff he got hold of for Margarito he wins.

    I give Berto a very serious chance but I find myself leaning more towards Mosley as the fight gets closer. I think Ive been won over by the argumnet that Shane has forgotten more than Berto will ever know but when it was 1st announced I was very much backing Berto to win on points fairly comfortably for a number of reasons

    • Shane isnt as motivated for this one like last time. He is looking past Berto
    • Berto is younger and its his biggest fight. It isnt Shanes
    • Mosley could find Tonys chin because its there to be hit. Bertos isnt as easy to catch.
    • A boxer puncher like Cotto can give Mosley trouble. Berto wont engage when Mosley wants him to.
    • Mosley is getting older but Berto is getting better.



    Despite of all of that Im going against my own logic and pick Mosley to win in a come from behind victory, hurting Berto late like against Mayorga. If he wins in that fashion no way will Floyd or Pac be able to go on avoiding him

    Stop Mosley? Shane has been in with much much better punchers and boxers then Berto....Not going to happen that way....

    Though for somereason I would not be surprised if this is the fight Shane suddenly aged in...Crazier things have happened...Berto not that quick and not a volume puncher and has poor defense...Though it has improved and gets better with every fight......

    I go with Mosley but I think Berto will do better then many are giving credit for
