There has got to be if i was Hatton id take 4 weeks off get into training for a quick rematch in maybe September, Collazo deserves it for me he won the fight, but i read he wants the fight in Manchester???? I wouldnt advise that, but there is defintly unfinished business to be sorted out.
skel i think fighting collazo would be a step back and besides keep ricky away from southpaws especially ones with a reach advantage to one collazo had over ricky! what i woul like to see is collazo fight another big name and see what happens and maybe further down the line there unfinished business can be settled
I would like a rematch too and also think that Coll deserves it, but boxing is boxing. Sturm also deserved a rematch against ODLH but didnt get it.Quote:

Just like people wanted to see a rematch between Floyd and JLC,the same principle applies here. Floyd did the right thing and won comfortably,shutting up all his critics,I want to see Ricky do the same.
Personally...I think that a rematch would be the best option for Hatton...who else is there that's ready for a match with him?Quote:

Watch it again ,Hatton won it no doubt at all.
Close but the 8/10 scraped it for him 8)
F*ck Collazo anyway,Hatton should move onwards and well....Downwards (in weight at least) ;D
Collazo again would be a step backwards at this stage of his career.
He probably deserves a rematch but i dont think ricky should take it.Quote:

So give it a rest haters!!
there should be a rematch cos collazo deserves one cos of it being such a close fight. and also that fight will always be a shadow over ricky's career with blind people saying he lost the fight. hatton should have a rematch and do it properly next time. knock the guy out.
Thats what im thinking JBirdy it casts a shadow over Ricky, he needs to get him in there again and do a proper job on him this time, and Smash i had it one up for Collazo, maybe Hatton won it but when i watched the fight i judged it one point to Collazo.Quote:

Right, I've just watched the fight and although this has been done enuff, I want to now put my 2 penneth in and have made the following observations
1 Hatton wasn't as bad as a lot of people have been saying
2 Collazo was a lot better than I expected
3 Hatton won the fight
I always score objectively and watched this fight firstly on mute and secondly with the HBO? commentary, and whilst it was close, I cannot make a case for Collazo winning the fight
1 10-8 Hatton
2 Collazo
3 Hatton
4 Hatton
5 Collazo
6 Collazo
7 Hatton
8 Hatton
9 Hatton
10 Collazo
11 Hatton
12 Collazo
115-112 Hatton (could be 114-113 if round 4 was switched) scored without bias.
Whatever, it was very close and Collazo definitely deserves a rematch.
I actually thought Hatton won the second round as well. It seems that everyone on HBO were unanimous in giving the round to Collazo but to me Hatton won it clearly, Collazo was all over the place for the first minute, tripping over and generally looking out of his depth. He recovered well but he got caught with a big punch at the end of the round as well so I'd say it was a definite round for Hatton.Quote:

But Hatton already said he'd give Collazo a rematch but after watching the 12th round I doubt he will. But you say he is a hitman of his word, so we shall see.
I had it a draw, and i'm the biggest Hatton fan out there....
shit man, why can't things ever be straight forward for the Hitman....sucks
To be honest the 2nd round was the other round I was not sure of, and when I watched the fight first time I gave it to Hatton, but 2nd and 3rd times I thought it was pretty even or maybe just gave the edge to Collazo. But I think every round apart from 2 & 4 was quite easy to score.Quote:

True Collazo put together the eye catching combo's but there were quite a few rounds where there was absolutely nothin between them except for Ricky's workrate and aggression.Quote:
