Collazo was very impressive and i had him winning the fight by one point, Hatton is not the same fighter at 147, he cant bully his opponents, he takes to many shots which affected his stamina, he wasnt as ruthless as usual, i think if he fights PBF, 147 would not be a problem, but Margorito or Dela Hoya would be suiside. Collazo should get another shot for that performance, i defintly think Ricky should go back to 140 unless it's PBF, I feel Margorito would be to strong for him.
idealy he would want to fight at 140. but he's only fighting at 147 cos thats where the big fights are. he'l go back down if the right offers are made.
But for as small as floyd is he is still bigger than hatton in both height aand reach.Collazo was able to keep away from hatton when he wanted to and lets be honest collazo ain't as fast in hand or feet as floyd. Hatton has a lot of heart but i'm afraid against floyd he will eat alot of leather.Quote:

Collazo was not impressive. Hatton had a bad night and the ref made sure everytime Hatton got in close he pushed him back.
he was more impressive than i thought he would be.....Quote:

Ricky Da man.
New World Welterweight Champion makes a couple of black eyes a whole lot easier to bear.
He will be looking forward to more doors opening up and more opportunities to come his way.
Let PBF go and clean house with the rest of the old guys while Ricky continues to fight his way up the ladder.
I didn't see it that way..I saw a fighter that couldn't adjust and lost the fight 114-113...he got lucky with the KD and even luckier decision...Quote:

But that doesn't mean he is over rated or he will get killed by every other 147 pounder...Let's see him in another fight at 147 before we crucify him....And Please if he wins his next one in a big way don't start retracting statements :argue: Some fans you guy's are...
enjoy the gift while you can....Hatton will not win another big fight at 147......time to face reality....Hatton is not near as good as those brits though he was.....just took him coming over and fighting a good american fighter to find this out....his time is limited and the clock is running....Quote:

You guys keep talking this way...
Who is the best at 147??? Mayweather?? what legit 147 did he fight? Mayweather fought 2 blown up 140s....has not faced a true 147 yet, and couldnt put a scratch on Buldozer let alone hatton.
Hatton came up in weight and beat a 147 natural who was winning Fights.... PBF fought.....Mitchel?????? Judah ??? who lost to Buldozer????

That hatton has apromising career in the WWF if this whole boxing thing dosent pan out LOL!!! c"mon man stop trying to compare and justify the LOusy amature performance !!!!Quote:
