It's not like that. Berto has never been impressive. Crawford impressed me more the first time I ever saw him fight than Berto has his entire career. Crawford's operating on a higher skill level than Berto has ever reached.

Yeah. One fight. And who was that against? I've seen fighters come and go and at times, you think you have someone very special and next minute it all evaporates.
Even though he proves himself in your eyes with one fight it takes the test of time.
Berto held his stature just a short while but he was THERE.
Berto was very impressive in what he achieved all in all.
You must be looking at his performances and somehow your disappointed. I don't look at performances really. I'm a expert reader.
Berto at his height; Crawford now they look twin. But I think Berto's star burned bit brighter. Maybe only my personal recollections. (Realize, the Universe is unique like that!)
