ANDRE BERTO vs. JESUS SOTO-KARASS, KEITH THURMAN vs.

Why do people try so hard to push the shopwarn/shot narrative long before it's a proven entity?

Berto beats this journeyman easily.

 

Yeah. Thought Figueroa might gas, plus he hurt his hand(s) bad and blood pouring into his mouth from his nose.

 

I didn't.

 

That's cool. We just saw the mini version of Margarito.

 

Yeah, SUSPENSE Plays a BIG Part in a TRUE "Fight of the Year" Candidate...



REED:cheer:

 

Berto's done.

 

God, Berto sucks

 

He's not shot, though

He's simply bad at boxing

 

Another exciting fight. Solid card all around.

 

the marked flaws of these fellows are matching up nicely, looks to be a fun fight

 

I remember when he won his first title, HBO having the NERVE to make Ray Leonard comparisons.

 

1st of All, NOBODY is "Pushing" Anything...

2nd, Since there's NO Discernible AMOUNT of Blows, AGE or LENGTH of Time After a Fight that SIGNS of Decline Eventually Sets in, it's Perfectly LOGICAL to @ Least Wonder if, If, IF Andre Berto Still HAS "It", Given he's Been on the WRONG Side of 2 Very PHYSICAL Losses in his 3 Most RECENT Bouts....



REED:ant:

 

Anybody remember an old Sega Genesis game called "Legends of The Ring" with a Ring magazine logo that had all famous middleweight fighters on it?

One of the "special" punches you could throw was a crazy overhand right that looked like a windmill

I think that is where Soto-Karass learned his

 

soto karass is a badass

 

Yup... Remember how much Kellerman was on his nuts? It was sickening

 

Yeah, Berto is having a really easy time in there.

 

Berto is taking a beating now... looks exhausted

 

I remember :bears:

 

Berto needs to retire.

 

Don't Be Soooo HARD on Yourself, Brother Kellerman....



REED:stunned:

 

The fact that people are picking a journeyman to beat a proven world level fighter is definitely pushing it.

And while I would agree a long career of sustaining punishment is definitely hazardous to a boxer's health I wouldn't arbitrarily put it at a whopping 2 fights where I start denouncing him as "shot".

 

no doubt, he is setting this journeyman up::

 

You watching the fight right now?

 

:mj:

 

Yeah.

 

:: you're still arguing this point? Get real.

 

What happened to his shoulder? Was this an injury before the fight?

 

No doubt!

 

Berto is getting beat up while you simultaneously call us all idiots for either picking Soto-Karass or thinking he had a good chance

 

:fist:
