According to www.boxingtalk.com WBA hav'nt santioned the fight yet.If they do not sanction the fight whats the point in taking this fight that was the only reason Hatton moved up to become a 2 weight champion thats if he wins.

WBA been goin to shat lately at Welter-Jr.Middle, look who the champs are. Collazo, and Garcia. Collazo can box, but hasn't fought anybody. Hatton should tear him up.

IMO it was already a non-title fight cause collazo isn't a champin anyway. Collazos title and judahs mean the same and that is nothing. Its bad enough we have like 100 sanctioning bodies but then you have more than 1 champion in the same organization and weight class. Its crazy

Yeah, Collazo's title means shat.

Collazo is going to give Ricky Hatton fits for a time. the title may not mean anything to you, but it means something to Collazo and he WILL defend it.

Good point. Mayorga's WBC strap may not be the be all end all to others, but it means the world to him, and he will defend it or die trying. I expect Collazo to box smart and do his best, just think he isn't in Hatton's class, but who knows?

He doesn't have to be in Hatton's "class" to beat him. His style makes up for a lot he doesn't have against a style like Hatton's. Which is why I'm worried about Ricky in this fight.
