BOTTOM LINE: Hatton can NOT beat PBF!!

[El Kabong]

...you might be "ripped" but you're also a little s-s-s-slow

I disagree. I don't think that it was just that it was a bad night... I think that maybe Collazo needs a bit of credit here.

I think he needs a ton of credit. I think credit was a big issue in this fight. Let's face it. Who gave Collazo a shot? Other then Starr (who picks the underdog everytime it seems), noone viewed Collazo as a threat and I HATE to bring it up because under training is the worst excuse ever imo but it has to be a factor here. I mean, Hatton did ons of press for this fight, he was doing tons of press, and...well he just wasn't looking like the guy who fought Tszyu or Collazo.

One of two or three things needs to be taken into consideration...#1: Hatton started gassing out & his power fell off or #2: Collazo has one hell of a chin or #3: Hatton needs to be back @ 140 where he can dominate.

Hatton said in the post fight presser that he felt like a bloated 140 lber rather then a legit welter. His stamina is fine when he is in prime shape though, and his power carries fine. Ask Tszyu

I don't agree with the majority of haters on here though...last night isn't that damning...but I do feel that he didn't deserve the nod...either that or a draw.

I thought he won the fight.

The difference is Floyd, after his only close and controversal win, gave Castillo a rematch to prove he was the man. It's just too bad Hatton doesn't have the cojones to do the same with Collazo.

When asked by the media who he would like to fight next, Ricky Hatton responded by saying, "I will fight anybody out there, and I approve of a rematch with Luis."

...you might be "ripped" but you're also a little s-s-s-slow

Castillo was Floyd's first fight at a new weight as well. And after the decision, what does Floyd say? "Let's do it again."

Collazo was Hatton's first fight at a new weight as well. And after the decision, what does Ricky say? "Um, I think I'll go back down a weight class."

not very champion-like.

Last time Zab was seeing birds he came back and won a few rounds but still lost the decision.

so he cant pull it out of the bag like Hatton... Glad we agree

...where have you been, Hatton said he's for a rematch.

I'll believe it when I see it.

Roy Jones also said he'd go to Germany to fight Dariusz. Talk is cheap.

Didn't Hatton also say that he felt so much stronger at Welerweight and was going to go through Collazo

Last time Zab was seeing birds he came back and won a few rounds but still lost the decision.

so he cant pull it out of the bag like Hatton... Glad we agree

You don't know that because Hatton didn't have to go 5 more rounds after seeing birds

[El Kabong]

Roy NEVER said he'd go fight Daruisz in Germany...he said "WHY would I have to go to Germany, I'm the man, I'm in America this is where I fight"

[Saddo]

...where have you been, Hatton said he's for a rematch.

I'll believe it when I see it.

it was said by Ricky but in all honesty i cant see it happening

saying that i think Collazo is the second best Welter out there behind hatton

mayweather wont be rushing to fight him either

You don't know that because Hatton didn't have to go 5 more rounds after seeing birds

and you dont know he couldnt

[El Kabong]

Saddo, that statement about Collazo is goddamned ridiculous! He isn't the 2nd best and Hatton ain't the best either.

Collazo has a difficult style for anyone and Hatton didn't work the body enough. Sad showing for Hatton but he still did more than Luis

What else would he say? I feel weak and this guy is going to give me problems. Post fight talk > Pre fight talk.

Thats amazing. He goes from unknown to second best welter all because he made hatton look bad.wow.LOL. Then i guess zahir raheem is the second best light weight cause he beat morales and castillo/corrales will be in no rush to fight him.Right?
