His mind must be 100% right for taking on Mosely, so don't blame him for pulling out.

Apparently his sister and daughter only just been found after going missing since it happened. Their home is totally gone and he has cousins and aunties dead.
No way he would have been focused.

No way! I was really looking forward to this. :(
My suspicious side is thinking maybe Mayweather vs Mosley soon?

It's a shame the fight is off as I've been looking forward to it for some time. But given the circumstances, it's completely understandable Berto has decided to pull out. Hopefully they can still fight at some point down the line. Agree with Asterix - Mayweather- Mosley has to happen now!

It was a wonder it took so long.
Damn though, there is nothing on the UK TV schedule to excite me too much over the next couple of months now.

Totally agree that Mayweather should now fight Mosely, not really any excuses not to. Viable opponent, one that will shut up the doubters as people can argue that Shane being bigger and stronger is more of a challenge than manny anyway - certainly arguable.
Shane would agree in a heartbeat for short end money, take all the tests Floyd wants and jump through hoops to make the fight. This is an understandable decision by Berto and throws up a very interesting situation for Mr Mayweather.

I can't wait for those fights! Both Juanma Lopez and and Gamboa are really exciting fighters, and they're facing very good opponents.
