    You should have tried this with a fight that people actually wait for, such as Helenius-Peter tomorrow

    I was hoping it was true.

    Berto vs Pac excites me far more than old Steroidal Shane vs Manny Ball Sac

    I've been losing sleep in anticipation of that one.

    Berto might just wade into him throwing those uppercuts and swinging wildly like the mood of a menopausal auld one.

    At least if Manny Ball Sac stopped him, we would be shut of Berto.

    Then we could look forward to the WBC belt being defended at 145lbs.:blackcloud:

    Saying he was fighting Berto was a dead giveaway. Berto is fighting Ortiz. Try harder next time.

    Yeah really. Thinking it over, it wasn't a very alarming piece of news to have fabricated. Most posters would probably prefer Pacquiao/Berto to Pacquiao/Mosley. In that sense, maybe it ends up being a let-down nonetheless.

    Still, despite the apparent preference among fans for Pacquiao/Berto over Pacquiao/Mosley, I'm convinced that whereas Pacquiao would stop Berto in a one-sided and abbreviated contest, he will not have as easy a time subduing the more durable, experienced and strong-hearted Mosley.

    Yeah because fighters have never bought their way out of contracts when given the opportunity to face a name like Pacquiao, for triple the purse.

    Having said that, I do concede there was a lack of effort on my part to come up with a moe stirring ruse.
