    Berto don't have a left hook! All he has is fast hands with a jab and straight right hand. Fight will be entertaining though. I'll Holla 5000

    If Zaveck sticks around, I can see this being a tough fight for Berto down the stretch.

    Meldrick Taylor had legit technical skills, Max. Berto does not.

    Berto gets hit ENTIRELY too much. I can see Zaveck doing big damage down the stretch.

    What the hell do these guys see in Berto???? He looked worse than he usually does...not better. The guy got hit with ALOT of punches and still doesn't move his head. Berto is far from top tier.

    he's a top five welter, and zaveck appears to be a top 10 type. take that for whatever its worth

    Zaveck is the most average fighter in the world. Everything about him is average. Thus we saw that Berto's athletic abilities are well above average, yet his defensive techniques are well below it.

    That's what I planned on when I predicted Berto W12, pity the cut ended it.

    See, skin colour DOES determine the outcome of fights.

    It's easy to strike red oil on a pink terrain. If the Irish weren't introduced to heating technology, a few more years of evolution would have given you fellas a transparent wrap,.. it might not attract the girls, but the doctors could pick out the cancers from a few paces should you need it.

    I take solace from the fact that Zbik and Zaveck at least inherently are no worse than two of the bigger names state-side. Felix-Sturm for the Facebook Generation, as it were.

    Zaveck came to fight and came to win. His guard is strong, his chin is good and is an accurate puncher. I would like to see a rematch.

    What's startling is that three non-punchers in Zbik, Zaveck and Felix Sturm have come to America and given outstanding accounts of themselves by the mere dint of putting on gutty, technically proficient performances.

    I think Mike Jones would put the beats on Berto.
