Andre Berto

[Landon]

Anybody know when he is fighting again. I think he is awesome. I hear a few compare him to Jeff Lacey, but I think he is much better,works behind the jab then its night night.

What do you think of him??

[sexydarin]

He's a monster. He intimidates me by just watching him fight on tv.

[mikeboxing]

lacy isnt that great..one dimensional...berto is somewhat similar to RJJ , moves , has speed and hell of punch and combos

[Puya]

I will watch this one closely. he looks promising ( Miguel Cotto story allover again)

[yoitsdan]

Berto kinda reminds me of Mosley, controls the range, but he seems stronger but not as quick. Great combos though, and hard to hit.

I don't see how Berto fights like Roy Jones at all.

[Landon]

Max Kellerum described him as a "cross between Tyson and Roy Jones". Not sure if I would go that far yet. I will say I wont miss any of his fights.

[amat]

People are getting a little ridiculous in the comparisions. He's still very green, but has great speed and power.

[Hacienda]

Top prospect - but as discussed, lets reserve praise til later when we get a full look at him.

[TyBuff]

He has shown great promise so far against the limited opposition he has faced. I would like to see him step it up in the second half of this year. Not much he can learn against the opposition he has faced. So far I think his only weakness is his defense, needs to work a little more on that.

[leftylee]

He destroyed that Norberto Bravo from tha contender in 1 round.

Look very very promising

[babyboNe]

so far his looking good, but even though his muscular like mike tyson i don't think he carries as much power as it looks.

hopefully he doesn't become the next jeff lacy.

[Preme]

is was very impressed with him when i seen him 2 or 3 fights ago and have been watching him with great interest for some time - i think he still has alot to do yet and ic an see him being one of those fighter who suffer a loss early on and learn so much from it to go on and do great things. Cans ee him ending up at SWW too.

[Hulk]

He'll be luck if he is the next Lacy. Most fighters never make it that far. Lacy was a world champion, an extremely exciting fighter and on top of the world until he took that horrible beating from Calzaghe, in which he showed a ton of heart and courage. True, Lacy barely won, probably shoulda gotten a draw in his last fight, but the guy tore his rotator cuff(or however the hell you spell it). I know Lacy blew it against Calzaghe, but he is still a good fighter, and Berto would do well to make as Far as Jeff has.

CC 414 Hulk either now or in 24, very nicely put.
