    Default Berto is dissapointing me

    I really was expecting a Pacquiao-Diaz type fight, it should be like that, and he's landing a lot, but he isn't dominating like I expected, with his power and speed he should have Urango totally clueless. Also wtf is with the holding, he should be countering so much Urango shouldn't want to come forward, or because Urango is so slow he should be confident with his defense than Juan won't land anything. IMO Berto needs a new trainer, I am not saying that fixes everything, but this guy is teaching him the wrong things, IMO FMSR is perfect for him.

    He is appalling, dancing around the ring right now and barely throwing anything. What a clown.

    I don't mind dancing around, what I do mind is that he isn't using his abilities properly. People say I love speed, and I do, but only when that speed is tied in with a great work ethic, and coordination. He didn't show me effortless movement, or as great of boxing skills I expected, I thought if Berto tried to truly box he would look awsome, and he didn't.

    I don't know how else to say this but there just seems to be no flow/fluidity to bertos game. As fast as he is, he seems rigid and straight up sort of. He throws a couple punches and stops there is no continuation, and if he fights like this against shane or cotto he's fooked.

    I respect Berto for climbing through the ropes....he is a nice enough guy and does his best.

    But I do believe he is the clinical definition of a paper Champion on the brink of exposure.After the Estrada fight, he was fast tracked to the top and just has not developed properly.

    I think I was just getting annoyed because I wanted to see a fight.

    Berto looked a very flawed fighter out there. Urango was always going to be too one dimensional to cause any major problems. But on that showing I struggle to see Berto getting away with it against any of the elite at WW.

    He needs to rematch Collazo IMO and then move from there.

    Definitely, no fluidity at all.

    Mosley has made a career of having no fluidity.

    I think everyone is bein too critical on Berto's performance in this fight. He was in there with an awkard guy and a fucking ROCK. Urango is a beast.

    He is slow, yes, but he is also powerful, determined and dangerous.

    It was an ugly fight cus of all the holding, headbutting and tripping, but Berto looked alright. He won all but 2 rounds.

    I think Cotto woulda stopped Urango, but thats Cotto. Berto is a good fighter, but he's just in a weight class with great fighters.

    I still think Berto would be extremely dangerous for any of the top guys except maybe Mayweather, but he isn't what I was expecting, I thought he could transition better into a pure boxer. I hope he proves me wrong, but now that I have Rigondeaux, I don't need him to be the next great thing.

    Berto not the worthy for a pac opponent!!! Pac doesn't need to waste time. I think Ortiz will give him his 1st loss.
