i have hatton winning that by a point, perhaps he was just dissapointed he hadnt manged to make the kind of showing he wanted...
I think that was probably it - he was pissed off that he'd looked shite on his US debut, plus he probably didn't feel that great after the 12th!
All I've seen of the fight is this:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V3Cin...tton%20collazo
Admittedly, its only highlights but it looks like ricky dominated all the rounds it showed there except the 12th. And as for the 12th being a 10-8 round, bollocks! Yes RH was hurt for about 25s second but then came back strong in the middle part of the round. On commentary Steward even said it was a tough round to score after ricky came back into it. I certainly don't get why people are calling it a robbery...
if you didn't see the whole fight than you shouldn't comment on it...editing can show you exactly what they want you to see.....Collazo constantly peppered hatton.. and hatton did not push the pace the whole fight .....Collazo won every rd 4-7 by jabbing, boxing and imposing his will on hatton. He also won the 2nd, 9th,10th and 12th....the 2nd could have been an even rd.....do the math.....Collazo won that fight......Ricky was given a gift....
He sure was given a gift!!!! Ricky would do well to give Collazo a rematch and try to blow him out it would be like going back and recreating history shutting up all the critics and set up a big fight with other top Welters!! if he loses well enough said We will be right in our analyisis

It was coming close to that at the 12th but Luis ran out of time...it's true, I've watched the fight about 3 or 4 times since Saturday. Hatton did just enough to win, he was helped a lot by the 10-8 first round

114-113 with the knockdown would have been better. But 115-112 i don't agree with. Take away the knockdown and he doesn't even get a draw. Thats crazy.
Re: hatton looked like a man who lost the fight
I had it 114-113 as well, but I wasn't surprised when Hatton won. It was boarderline 114-113/115-112
Re: hatton looked like a man who lost the fight
I thought hattons handspeed was quite good in the early round tbh
Re: hatton looked like a man who lost the fight
Gatti's likeable, is a great entertainer when well matched and is a big hearted figher but just because he's been in some great fights doesn't mean he's still world class. No way Hatton loses to Micky Ward even 1 in 3 or has trouble with Damgaard.
Gatti also started at 130lbs and has too many miles on the clock. Hatton would handle him
Re: hatton looked like a man who lost the fight
hatton won cuz he is a guy you give rounds to untill hes lost a few straight...
that means people tend to give him rounds he looses untill he looses a few in a row, they have to be overly convinced they are loosing
the fight was poorly scored, but hatton may have won, and there was clearly no glen hamada
