Andre Berto inadvertently dodges a bullet...

Thread title is absolutely right........ Although there is the possibility its a lesson he needed.

In my opinion the lesson he needed was against Collazo, and he seems to have taken nothing from it.

I still can't make my mind up until he fights someone of Mosleys quality. I don't see him fighting the way he did against Collazo or Quintana if he does fight the better WW's. I see him fighting more defensively. He has to anyway or he will get KO'd. If he can fight better walking backwards rather than just hunting and taking some shots on the way in then I think he can become a major player, but until he gets in the ring with the elite then I'm still not sure about the guy.

Good point..... I think he should actually rematch Collazo and prove that he is willing and able to set a record straight.

I like Berto and agree that he can beat any other guy out there in the division ecept for Mosley, Pacquiao and Mayweather... Pic one and they'd ruin him... All by stoppage.

The Urango fight had me thinking that he may have been evolving as a fighter... Fighting with a game plan, sticking to it and winning. The Urango fight was boring as hell but he stayed away and boxed. It seems to me that he reverts and "fights down" to his opposition. It's a figure of speech... I'm not saying he's not fighting formidable guys cuz he absolutly is. I just think that his learning curve has grinded to a halt and unlike a guy like Pacquiao who has seemingly shattered the learning curve, he's stuck.

Im glad someone else thinks Kevin A-Hole is a complete tosser

Yes I hate that motherfucker.

He doesn't know shit about boxing.

And you can tell he really doesn't like boxing, and bashes it every chance he gets in favor of the UFC.

He's a coward and an incompetent fool.

I still say stylistically he gives MOsley and Mayweather honest challenges.

Mayweather because he is also a good jabber, and as he showed against Forbes he can fight against this type of fighter without becoming wild.

Against Mosley because MOsley doesn't have a great jab and he leaps in with most of his hooks from far away, and it only works against guys slower than him. I think Berto is better on the outside as long as he wouldn't load up. I don't think he is better than MOsley, but the styles match up well for him to face an orthodox fighter. It also helps that Mosley is a trully fluid fighter, and neither of them seems to know how to shorten up punches to garner better accuracy.

I think Pacquiao have difficulties with Berto's speed for awhile, but in the end I think Pacquiao is just too much offensively for all the mistakes Berto makes defensively.

Youre seriously underestimating mosely's accuracy..
