Collazo was a world champion which is a big difference in this matter. Also Collazo had beat Rivera was his name ?? who went on to become the light-middle champ so he was no joke if you look at his record and those "most people" must have undersetimated Collazo to come to that conclusion Hatton was in for an easy night as thats bullshit IMO as they never took into account it was his first time in America, new weight, expectation on his soldiers, world champ on his hands, southpaw in which he's always had problems with etc etc whereas Floyd was fighting somebody totally SHOT

Rivera won a vacant title big difference he was never that good, the fact is hardly anyone on this forum had heard of Collazo, most people were predicting a quick easy KO win for Hatton, it was supposed to be gimme fight for Hatton to win an easy title off an unknown opponent, but things didn't work out as planned. I already know Hatton has had problems with southpaws since he was an amateur, but regardless he was the big favorite and its easy to say that Collazo was a dangerous well known opponent with hindsight, but the fact is most boxing fans did not see it that way at all at the time including me. This is going way off subject i don't even know how this subject got brought up ?? one last thing Mitchell even though he was shot was a much more well known name that Collazo was and thats a fact.

After looking back at the fight I don't think it was unfair as Hatton's style played into Floyd's hands perfectly so Floyd knew what he had to do to win easy and thats exactly what he did and let's remember he was fighting against a natural 140 pounder who struggled at Welterwight previousley.

Yes it is unfair because your looking back with hindsight, what you are saying now is nothing like what you was saying before the fight, you was predicting that Hatton would win and would give Mayweather his toughest fight of his career. I could do the same with any fight like Jones vs Tarver 2 i can look back and say *yes looking back i knew Tarver would KO Jones* but that would be BS because i didn't say anything of the sort before the fight. Your saying Mayweather handpicked the Hatton fight, which is very unfair considering how much of a chance you and all the Hatton fans gave him.

Cotto, Williams and Cintron have all called Mayweather out and PBF has not replied to any of them and IMO he is ducking Cotto and Williams as he wants to protect his unblemished record as he knows he will get beat and the funny thing is, he calls himself "Pretty"

They have called Mayweather out ?? thats news to me because i haven't seen one article where either of those guys called out Mayweather.

On the ODLH subject that shows what Floyd is, going for money instead of securing a legacy, he should take a leaf out of Hatton's book and Floyd lost ALL of my respect for that, what a discrage not going for the tougher fights that when people look back at his record and will look not in admiration but saying oh there he is making money fights which the ODLH fight is. Has'nt he got enough cash already ?? greedy twat

Thats what every boxer fights for Lee *Money* its good business sense. Mayweather will make a ton of money beating ODLH your telling me you wouldn't take a rematch with a guy you already beat for all that cash ?? because i know i would. Cotto has not that done well on the PPV ratings, Mayweather is the much bigger draw, Mayweather is just waiting for the right opportunity the fight Cotto he is waiting until Cotto makes more of a name for himself, guarantee you now that Cotto vs Mayweather will happen at the start of 2009.
