Nicely said. I also think Berto has a major, major issue. Either his feet just naturally stink or he doesn't have a trainer who can teach even a good athlete. Either way it's a problem. JuanMa is a smaller Gatti. Heavy handed, gutsy and never met a punch he could dodge. I think he too is who he is.
