    They really don't like putting Berto in there with anyone that can defend himself, don't they? I guess Collazo had Dibella and Moretti shitting their pants.

    Nice card, should be very entertaining. I'm picking Berto and Angulo as well.

    :rolleyes:

    ....maybe.....Urango was fighting at 140 in his last fight but he might have a good enough punch to test Berto questionable chin...

    yeah, Berto is much quicker...any success that Urango has will only be sporadic but he is heavy handed enough to give Berto a wobble or two

    I've developed a newfound hatred for Cintron after sitting through his last stinkfest. I hope Angulo beats the tears out of his eyes again.

    I'll be rooting for Urango to KO Berto, but Andre will prob be too fast for Juan.

    And Angulo will stop the frog late.

    Typical Dibella move - put his guy who fights at 147 and could probably compete at 154 in against a guy who's accomplished nothing above 140. It's exactly how Dibella builds his guys up.

    Don't be surprised if Cintron KO's Angulo. Angulo doesn't have the speed, southpaw stance, or stink factor that Cintron's last opponent did. I can envision a repeat of the Mathysse performance.

    Of course, he'll always be a pussy in everyone's eyes because getting hit with bricks bothered him to the point he didn't want to carry on fighting, but he still deserves his chance just like anyone else.

    Yeah, Dibella is a cunt. And he's protecting Berto cause he knows Andre's limitations.

    And if Cintron beat Angulo, it wouldnt really shock me. I still favor El Perro though.

    Not only that he's the better boxer. Hatton outboxed Urango so Berto should be able to also.

    Berto has nearly no defense though. And Urango can be aggressive. But Dibella has just about ensured a Berto victory given the size difference. Every time Berto steps into the ring he's the bigger guy. True sign of who his promoter his and why in the end he'll be, "exposed."

    As much as everybody likes to shit on Cintron, you gotta give credit where credit is due....

    As a young fighter who was barely established, he fight Antonio Margarito and is reduced to tears.
    He goes on ESPN and fights a still somewhat dangerous David Estrada, and it's one of the most brutal ESPN fights in a long time.
    Then he dispatches of the very dangerous Mark Suarez (I mean, the dude's got a tattoo of horns on his head for chrissakes!).
    Then he crushes Walter Matthyse, who lasted ten against Paul Williams, in two rounds
    Then he takes on Antonio Margarito in a rematch
    Then he moves up in weight to fight a very good Sergio Martinez
    Now he's fighting a very good and very undefeated Alfredo Angulo

    Sure, he seems like a spoiled kid sometimes, but he's got some balls. Especially when you consider him taking a rematch against Margarito and the circumstances involved in that.

    Plus he trained at Kronk for a long time. Pussies don't train at Kronk.

    Also, while the guy wasn't very skilled, he had a bloody war with Feliciano too, stopping him eventually just as he did Estrada.

    You think those fights had to be as hard for Kermit as he made them? Hell no. He was just out to prove he's not a pussy because he caught so much shit for the first Margarito fight. And then what does he do? He rematches him. What I can't believe is that with Steward in his corner there was no discovery of foul play on the part of Margarito.

    It does make you wonder how long Margarito has been loading his gloves - whether it accounts for his wins over Cintron or not.

    But as far as buckling under pressure, I think he proved himself that he's not a front runner in the Estrada, Feliciano and Martinez fights.

    I think he was lucky to get a draw against Martinez but I think we as fans are also lucky he did. Who the hell wants to see Martinez fight again?

    Steward is very overrated.
