Berto is a piece of s...

[Kev]

all the talk about how people should be more aware of the poverty and tragedy in Haiti, and now he came out with this gem...

On Monday morning, Berto wrote the following on Twitter: “R.I.P to Edwin Valero after killing his wife yesterday he just killed himself in jail today. WOW women are a [expletive] boy RIP E.V.”

didn't really care for the guy to begin with, now i hope he does get a fight against one of the top guys at welterweight and basically ends up ruined, fucking asshole

Your just upset he beat your boy quintana so effortlessly with a torn arm. He apologized for what he said, get a life.

you think his apology is enough for valeros kids? if i push you to the train tracks would you forgive me if i apologize after damage has been done?

I doubt his kids even know about it. And I don't see how a public text message compares to pushing someone on to a train track.

He apologized already. What more do you want him to fukking do? Go buy them a house? Put them through college? Get off his fukking back already. I seriously doubt he gives a fukk you lost the little respect you had for him. Man what the fukk is he going to do now?

Haha no kidding, this is why Twitter and Facebook is bad. Of course Berto's snap judgement is going to be to relate with the other fighter! He apologized, move on and get your own life. It's not like this was the conclusion of a bunch of research he did, it was a snap thing he typed probably on his phone after he read the headline, ease up! Andre Berto is by all accounts a really good guy, ALL of us have put our foot in our mouth at some point in time talking about something we didn't know all the facts to.

I don't think it means he's a horrible person, just a dumb kid trying to act cool on twitter.

Exactly man, some people had a go at him on twitter about it and his response was "YO YO relax people relax I don't know what happened with Edwin Valero and his wife I just feel its a sad day he was a great fighter"
The comment was stupid and he apologised for offending anyone, it was just a snap reaction to hearing about a tragic situation.

Well I already had my big rant about comments like this.....I am not sure if he meant it in a way where he was blaming her or saying anything bad about women...IMO it more or less sounded like a comment of shock if you will towards how far some will go in the instance of love (If you want to call it that)....I mean just last year Gatti had something similar and committed suicide ...So they say due to issues with a woman.

Though I don't know what is going through or was going through his mind at the time but I would HOPE it was nothing more then that.

He just does not seem like a guy who malicious like that...But then again I never expected to read some of the shit I had on these forums either on the topic.

[p4pking]

I just read somewhere that his wife was 20 years old, and they have/had children who are aged six and eight.... Surely the ages are off, or the elder child was from another woman? Do they not have an age of consent in Venezuela

I seen 20 in one report too, but i've seen lots of others where it said she was 24 i believe.

It could have been a lot worse in cases like these of domestic violence sometimes the man kills the children. A sick f*** in the UK did that to his two children to get back at his wife.

Some times this forum gets to sensitive.

People are people attaching yourself to any of these guys is kinda silly either way imo. There are bigger pices of shit out there than valero and berto and just because they dont' tweet it and keep it to themselves makes them no better. You don't know any of these guys. I watch boxing to watch them fight..that's it. Any of them could be racist murdering child porn collectors for any of you know, i bet there are even the same type of people on here......and quick to point out how bad others are. Who cares. Even the organazations that run this sport could care less, they're sure quick to let margarito fight again, and he could have killed someone just as dead with what he was doing. These guys entertain in the ring....they not supposed to be raising our children and giving moral lessons. Most of these guys fight cause they had no other option and crazy rough beginings. They don't pick up these guys from the ymca and church. And either way who gives a crap, let authorites do thier job and we as fans do ours. After i turn off the t.v. i don't think about any of these guys one bit, they served thier purpose. The whole thing is bad all around but valero isn't the only scum bag lacing up gloves and he won't be the last, If you watch boxing and only want to root for the "good" guys then there are probably only one or two amature fighters you're going to follow. And that's generally cause they don't have the money or time to get into trouble yet.

That's right. The homie Reverend Mar preaching the truth. I got into Boxing cuz I seen muthafukkas fight. Not cuz homeboy is a nice guy who helps the poor. It's about the fights.

Great post, Mar.

Rep owed.

coincidentally thats what he did considering what he's done for Haiti and given to it. Amazing how people now just dismiss him as an asshole.

It was piece of shit.

Stupid thing to say, probably thinking it makes him sound hard or something.
