Thread: Collazo in off tv fight??!

Promoter Don King is known for packing his fight cards with supporting attractions that would be main events for many other boxing promoters, and Saturday's non-televised undercard at Chase Field in Phoenix will be no exception. Among the highlight's are the return of former WBA welterweight champion Luis Collazo against Artur 'Scar' Atadzhanov and an IBF jr. bantamweight championship fight between IBF 115-Pound king Luis 'El Demoleodor' Perez and Ricardo 'Chapo' Vargas.

good to see Collazo back,I think he can cause all the top boys a few problems!
and the division has loads of talent so I recon we'll be seeing him in another big fight not so far away.

Well i think mayweather and maybe Cotto are the only ones at WW who beat him atm (not including hatton as his LW now); but id give collazo a hell of a chance at beating cotto and hatton in a rematch.

Judah, Cotto, Margarito, Baldomir, Quintana, would all beat him imo.

Collazo is a very solid fighter that can and will give any of the top a good fight. I was impressed with him against Hatton, very good style.

id put money on him Ko'ing judah, an 8-4/7-5 win v badli - cotto i give cotto th edge, toni/quint not seen enough of to comment.

imo; few more yrs and this boy collazo will be compared to winky right, they don't fight the same, and i aint be any means saying he will be as GOOD as winky. But i think strongly that he will have a style that like winkys is very very hard to get through, will land alot of punches, wont score many Kos but consistantly take the 12 round desision - i predict a big futre at WW for him, maybe even a move to up LM, he doesn't have the power to make short work of people, but hes fast, cagey as f***, good head movment, nice reach, snappy jab, very hard to be hit.

I still consier ricky hatton to be a warrior - not getting into his boxing skill right now, but come-forward, in your face ill walk through you and Ko u type style. But collazo had him rocked, i think there are very few people who could cope with the amount of punches hes throws, i think they would feel lost in there, looking for options they don't have, time will tell ofc, but can#t w8 to see how he does

Collazo is a good fighter without doubt and a tricky opponent for most at 147 but P4PKIng has it right in my huimble opinion,the guys he mentioned would beat Collazo. The problem with Collazo is he is not a big enough banger to stand toe to toe with the big boys at 147,and he's slick but not slick slick to make him elusive.(although I don't think Baldi/Judah would beat him,replace them with Quintana andWilliams.)
