The Collazo fight was good but not because of Ricky, but IMO he looked better at 147. He held but he fought all twelve rounds. The Urango fight was good for the first half and then turned into a boring snoozefest that was so frustrating because of Ricky's holding that it actually ruined the whole fight. Ricky holds way too much to be considered an elite fighter.

Mayweather got hit by a guy (Judah) who is FASTER than him and possibly even has faster hands, Judah just didn't have the stamina and smarts to fight an entire 12 rounds with Floyd. Plus, Judah only landed three or four good shots on Mayweather, that's it, and Floyd might have stopped Judah if not for the melee (which was entertaining as hell). Mayweather was actually hit more in his fights at 140. Not to mention, Judah months earlier was the undisputed welterweight champion of the world. Mayweather landed big time shots on Baldy in the middle of the fight and then ran for most of the last half of the fight. Mayweather frustrated everyone because Baldy was so open for a beating that Floyd could have stopped Baldy, but he just chose not to pursue that.

Both Mayweather and Hatton belong at 140. Mayweather is taking big risks by even being at welterweight much less jumping to junior middle and taking on championship level competition. Hatton took a couple good hard shots from Collazo, handled them decently and won the fight, but for some reason, he ran back to 140. Hatton can't deal with risks. Mayweather can. Hatton needs to be in a division where he knows for a fact he won't be knocked out. Mayweather doesn't need that security. Mayweather is making double figures with PPV upside for his next fight, Hatton will only make between three and five million for the Castillo fight. I'd say Mayweather came out a lot better.
