Re: Saturday Night - Collazo-V-Mosley... Who wins?
Im going with a Collazo decision victory. Mosley looked good against Vargas but Vargas offered nothing in that last fight. All the fight was left in the dressing room.
Collazo meanwhile is a much fleeter fighter than Vargas and will throw punches in bunches. Collazo is younger and I sense pretty hungry. He will want to make his impact and there is no way Mosley is going to last forever.
This may well be the changing of the guard....

CC Miles,I'm sticking my neck out and going with Luis too. Although he has only had half the time Shane has had to prepare for the fight,I just think people were overhyping Shane for his wins over Vargas,a shot Vargas. Luis fast hands,his versatility and movement will give Shane problems. The only problem Colazo will have is his lack of power,which could cost him as Shane may realise he can walk through him! Still,I think Collazo,points.

Because Shane even at this stage has worlds more talent than Collazo, who is a good fighter in his own right. I dunno if you have seen much of Collazo outside of his robbery loss to British Troll, but he had a very close fight with Jose Antonio Rivera, who is NOT in Mosley's class. Collazo's biggest wins were against Rivera, and washed up Miguel angel Gonzalez. Collazo will give Shane trouble, and he has a chance at pulling the upset, but I think the talent and speed differential will be just too much for him to overcome. I know the Vargas win wasn't too meaningful, but Shane is STILL an elite fighter.

CC, back fella
The thing is, I think Hatton beat Collazo...just. But the thing is that neither Hatton nor Collazo have come out with any real respect for that fight. I really think Collazo may turn out to be better than people give him credit for. He has had a year and a warm in which to hone his skills for a further step up and it might just be that a slightly over the hill Mosley is the man to make that transition against. Mosley will need stamina and an output to beat Collazo, and I can just see Collazo outworking Mosley down the stretch...
Im into this fight...

I agree that Shane is an elite fighter but those spells at the top are not indefinate and Collazo is young and improving. This makes it a more competitive fight than had it been against Mosley in his 20's. As you admit, Collazo does have a chance. You just think its less chance than what I give him, and thats the fun of debating boxing.
:coolclick:, Hulk...a bit of boxing banter is always good! :)
Re: Saturday Night - Collazo-V-Mosley... Who wins?
CC back to you Miles. May the best man win.

THe thing is, while people may overrate MOsley for the Vargas wins, people are doing the same thing for Collazo and his fight with Hatton. Granted he showed some good skills and speed in that fight, but Hatton isn't a welterweight.. If people don't expect Mosley to be much stronger, faster, and able to take a much better shot than Hatton at welter.. I think they are in for a rude awakening. I also think your comment I bolded is dead on, and for that reason among others Mosley will take this.

Yeah sounds about right to me
I usually agree with Miles so I dont wana go against him and El gamo in this 1 but i'm guna have to cuz Shane is a level above Colazzo IMO. As you say who has Collazzo beat ? He lost to a lightwelter moving up . Shane is a big hitting light middle moving down .
Collazzo is quick and slippery yeah and I reckon he will dig deep cuz we saw his heart against Hatton . Mosley will need his stamina cuz down the stretch this is guna be tough and Collazzo may want it more . If Shane lets his work flow like in his last fight then this fight will end explosively , possibly the K.O of the year . More likely though is Collazzo wont allow Shane to work and make is scrapy . Mosley will start to accept clinches and it becomes a close fight . However Collazzo did say he wasnt preparing for Shanes power so I think he'll be in for a surprise . After 12 competative rounds Shanes speed of hand and extra class clinches it for his on the cards .Collazzo misses out again .
Re: Saturday Night - Collazo-V-Mosley... Who wins?
I'm very interested to see what Mosley brings to the table. To me, the wins over Vargas proved very little, because Vargas is a corpse.
Before those two fights, Mosley had a couple unimpressive decisions, and before that, six fights in a row where he didn't win (assuming you think DLH deserved to win their second fight).
The two losses to Forrest, the NC against Marquez, the controversial fight with DLH, followed by two losses to Winky.
If he doesn't look impressive against Collazo, it'll be interesting to see if people think he deserves a shot at Floyd, although I would still pay to see it.
I think Mosley beats Collazo by decision, but I think there's a good chance he doesn't look impressive.
Re: Saturday Night - Collazo-V-Mosley... Who wins?
Does anyone know where to get alive stream for this fight? It would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
Re: Saturday Night - Collazo-V-Mosley... Who wins?
Dont think its possible, unless you got a webcam...its on HBO. Letting someone stream it wouldnt be wise for a premium channel. If I am wrong someone plz tell me so I can cancel HBO

Well,I think we find out tonight whether Luis is over rated or not,personally,I don't think he is,after having seen more of his fights,I'm actually pretty impressed. Hatton is not a WW but Rivera was,a very strong WW and he beat the shat out of Collazo at the beginning of their fight but Collazo showed heart and came back strong. I disrefard the Vargas wins,when did Shane look good before that? I don't know man,I see where you are coming from,and you make valid points but I have a sneaky feeling Collazo will prove more than a handful for Shane.
Re: Saturday Night - Collazo-V-Mosley... Who wins?
This is gonna be a boxing clinic, two great fighters, one southpaw one orthodox. Collazo's chin will be tested tonight, but I think Shane is gonna be too strong.Late round K.O. for Shane...9th round.
