Z STAFF
Andre Berto isn’t reeling over his loss from Floyd Mayweather ’cause he’s got his eyes on a new prize — reality television.

Andre Berto -- Floyd Mayweather Jr. Screwed Our PPV Numbers!
Z STAFF
Andre Berto got some new ammunition for smack talking Floyd Mayweather Jr., and he’s already unloading on him — blaming the champ for their fight’s historically low pay-per-view numbers.
Somewhere between 400,000 and 550,000 people bucked up for the fight … the lowest PPV stats for a Floyd fight in a decade. Berto tells TMZ Sports, “It’s definitely Floyd’s fault, He left a sour taste in everybody’s mouth because of the Pacquiao bomb shell.”
Berto thinks Floyd underestimates how much fans hate his style of boxing, and that’s why they vowed to stop buying his fights — “As you can see they weren’t bulls**ttin.”
Ultimately the low PPV numbers hurt Floyd more than Berto, since Floyd gets a cut of that. Berto got a flat $ 4 million purse, but says he still tried to put on a good show … unlike Floyd.
“I knew if he had the chance he would run around and make it boring, but I tried my best to not let that happen and disappoint the people. They deserve excitement.”
Rematch, anyone?

Andre Berto -- Don"t Sleep on Chris Brown ... He"d Kill Justin Bieber!
Z STAFF
Andre Berto‘s throwing a fresh jab at Floyd Mayweather Jr., and also getting a little too candid about his pal Chris Brown‘s lethal hands.
Berto flew into L.A. Monday … fresh off his weekend loss in Vegas. AB had plenty to say about Mayweather lacking any punch during their fight — but the shocking part of this clip is what he says about a hypothetical fight between Justin Bieber and Brown.
To be fair, our photog raised the topic, and Berto just ran with it. It’s obvious Andre was NOT thinking about the Rihanna beating as he bragged … Chris “got them hands.”
Berto’s point is really that Bieber wouldn’t stand a chance, but let’s just say … he made an innocent mistake with his choice of words.
