Stop jumping on the Hatton bandwagon!!
You can't call any fighter sh*t or a coward, and the one's that do generally have never been in a ring. Its easy to talk a good fight from ringside. Boxing is the most unpredictable sport around, with so many variables, which is part of the reason we "all" love it so much. Collazo could go on to be a great fighter or disappear, but that will not take away from his performance on the night. Stop giving Hatton a hard time, after the Kosta win he could have milked it the way other new champions do, but he took on fights that were harder than they should be because he is a true fighter. One bad night so therefore he must be sh*t. Name me one great fighter in history who didn't have an off night, and if judged by that wouldn't be that great?
And as for the people talking about Hatton getting destroyed, or getting a gift decision, or Collazo being robbed :shakehead: I hope for your sake and for the future discussions on this board that you know the actual true couse of the fight, because otherwise it would really show up you boxing knowledge.

Boxing is indeed very unpredictable and there are hordes who judge the fighters by doing battle with a keyboard....I agree completely with your posting. Nicely put.

Excellent posting,well made points,CC.I admit Hatton was not impressive but when people say that he was exposed or similar nonsense,it is really agitating! They have no idea of the meaning of exposure in boxing contexts!
Re: Stop jumping on the Hatton bandwagon!!
Amen! I bestow a cool click upon thee!!

agreed. hatton won and its not as though he embarrassed himself. the current anti hatton feeling seems to have the faint reek of hate...
Re: Stop jumping on the Hatton bandwagon!!

Only time will tell which way Collazzo's career goes but i have a suspicion he may become the most avoided fighter in the welters for some time! :o

WTF??
it is quite simple since Hatton's fight there has probably been the most threads created ever, to basically discredit, insult and make him out to be some fraud there has ever been and remember he actully won the fight!! So i agree with the Thread starter alot of people are jumping on the hate Hatton bandwagon.

Thanx for the CC's guys, and now I feel that I have got it off my chest and that I wasn't just imagining things ;D
PS-I meant the band wagon full of people waiting for an opportunity to tear down Hatton. Don't mind people slateing fighters for their lifestyle and personality outside the ring (personally I think its the fighters own prob) but I never question any boxers true bravery about stepping in the ring!

my theory is Collazo has a big family... they were all let in at the post fight conference by don king ::** and acted like total dicks shouting and screaming by all accounts.
classless muppets :)
fact still remains Ricky Hatton 3 fight 3 champions beat 2 weight world champ and noooo amout of crying will change that ;D
Re: Stop jumping on the Hatton bandwagon!!
Hatton won the fight on judges score cards, but he didn't win the fight. Collazo made him look really bad. hatton hardly landed a punch. And i like Hatton's fighting style. He just sucked badly in this fight. If i were Hatton, I wouldn't give Collazo a rematch. Collazo would kick his ass for a second time.

dont talk rubbish... what you people who are crying for the rematch seem to be forgetting is a 7 week prepared hatton won a close decision a fully prepared strong Hatton would do Collazo in good and proper ;)
IMO Hatton shouldn't waste his time... to prove something that anyone with alittle common sence would see as a landslide victory for Hatton ::**

If there was a rematch look at the facts. Is there really anyway that Collazo could improve on his performance in the first fight. I think he did really well, and has now become a name in the division. It could well be that a few years down the line, this Hatton fight could be looked at in a different light. If there was a re-match, then only Hatton could really improve. As everyone and their dog is pointing out, Hatton did under perform, and even then it was a close fight that could have gone either way.
I think a rematch with Hatton would do him more harm than good right now. If he gets the rematch, and then gets comprehensively beaten, as most expected him to be this time, then he has undone all his good work.
Don't forget, in a rematch he no longer has surprise on his side!!!!
