"Stay On The Ropes and Shoulder Roll Into Every Punch Brehs" Berto v Porter SHOWTIME Fight Thread

[mr. smoke weed]

Surprised so many people think Berto has a chance. I thought Porter would be too big/strong for Berto but seeing them at the presser they are basically the same size.
Berto has fast hands but I just don't see him boxing for 12 rounds. It's so easy to get that dude to go to war and that plays right into Porter's skill set.If Berto can't catch Porter and hurt him bad I think Porter cruises in this

This is a good card though, so much good boxing (from all the promoters) now days

Porter gonna throw Berto around the ring. Berto better still have that fast twitch uppercut muscle b/c Porter gonna be on top of him all night n/t

 

[mr. smoke weed]

I don't see Porter boxing for any rounds...

He's just going to maul him but hopefully Berto got them counter uppercuts ready.

It's fast, powerful hands vs. stamina, mauling/pressure and youth.

If Berto boxes but lets his hands go when the pressure comes he will do ok imo.

He ain't gonna box lol. It's Berto. They gon bang out.

They were negotiating to fight fall 2016

Swift was getting a milly+ so Berto wanted a milly+

They wouldn't give it to him...said it wasn't in budget...so Berto sat it out N called they bluff....Swift ended up without a quality opp N scrambled to fight anyone as a tune up since the Thurman fight was already signed

Berto ended up doing the same exact thing with Porter N I guess Haymon blinked first N gave Berto the $$$$

Swift vs Berto before Swift vs Thurman would have helped out Swift a lot.

Swift vs Berto before Swift vs Thurman would have helped out Swift a lot.

True, but it was still a risky fight. Swift wouldn't have gotten much props for winning if he did and most cats in here were already shytting on the fight. Then you have the off chance of Berto landing some crazy ass shyt and actually winning.

i know..all of y'all are right but this has been my thing with berto..what he gets paid in contrast to what he's accomplished (or not accomplished) has always vexed me..and its not just him but he's a big example of this..now if he defeats porter without controversy then hell give him a title shot against One Time in Florida so me, @LauderdaleBoss, @LeVraiPapi, and other Ring brehs can be in the house for it to indulge in fukkery, fighting, and bullshyt

I'd skip my own wedding to attend that fight. If that was my date of birth, I'd ask God to skip that so that I could attend that fight live. what do I look like getting swaddled and cuddled by mommy when Berto sending Onetime to the bushes ????

Thurman would eat Berto alive.

 

[LauderdaleBoss]

Thurman would eat Berto alive.

Indeed, and I wouldn't mind seeing it tho.

Florida been deserving of a big fight between popular names for a while.

 

[David_TheMan]

Berto should get this fight assuming he doesn't get injured physically in the early rounds.
He can box adequately and Porter can't box at all

No word on if he received an exemption, but its removed from his instagram

Charles Hatley Instagram Post Jeopardizes Title Fight With Charlo

Perhaps Charles Hatley would rather have fame than fortune and prizes, even if that fame comes for all of the wrong reasons.



The super welterweight contender has managed to jeopardize his chances of contending for Jermell Charlo's WBC title following a social media post that could force the World Boxing Council and the New York State Athletic Commission ahead of their Showtime-televised bout Saturday evening from Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York. Sometime after Friday's weigh-in, Hatley not only received an IV treatment - which is prohibited in according with the WBC's Clean Boxing Program as well as the state commission, barring a filed exemption - but went out of his way to frame the moment on his Instagram account.



"Getting my @nutridrip to prepare for the big fight! Feeling amazing already!
