It's not rocket science is it? Mayweather aint a big hitter at 147 and he certainly aint a full blown welter.
But Collazo is a murderous puncher, right?
'

Yea exactly.. I rememberr before Hatton fought Collazo people said his weakness(luis) was that he had very little pop.
That's exactly why they picked Collazo. They taught he was a weak champion who couldn't punch. Collazo was bad mouthed so much that Frank Warren even had footage of Collazo only loss (at that time) against Edwin Cassiani on it. Saying Hatton career was not going to benefit by facing such a weak fighter. People forget that Collazo was picked by Hatton and his people. Not HBO. Collazo had only fought on Showtime before. Never on HBO. HBO was not familiar with Collazo. They only approved him cuz he was a title holder and Lazcano (a bulked up Lightweight) got hurt.
