Collazo vs. Berto

[p4pking]

Geezus Christ!... People are underrating Collazo... If you people think Berto is stopping Collazo you're out of your mind...

Hope this helps

Sorry POB but i disagree although Collazo maybe be a good slick fighter, he hasn't got power nor has he got high activity level. I think there is a decent chance of Berto stopping Collazo depending on how well he closes the distance and how quickly in the fight.

His activity level against Hatton was fine. It was poor against Mosely but that's because he broke his hand in the 2nd round.

THat's ridiculous. His activity level was good against Hatton because Hatton came forward the entire fight, almost stubbornly so. Collazo is a good slick counterpuncher, who will eat up your average come forward type. The only reason Ricky didn't take more punishment in that fight is because of his own activity. Stylistically Hatton was a very good opponent for Collazo to look good against, especially since it was his first fight at welter. I think Mosley even took that fight as a blueprint to do better against Collazo. If you hadn't noticed, Mosley was almost hesitant to come forward against Collazo, though it is in his style, he was far more of a counter puncher in that fight than he has been in most of his bouts. I don't think it really matters whether Collazo really did hurt his hand or not, Shane had him figured out by the mid rounds anyways. Berto is more of an accurate one punch type fighter than Hatton is, and he has a fairly big frame for a welter. Don't get me wrong I think Collazo would be a great test for Berto, but I think Andre takes this one handily as it get's to the later stages. He just would need to fight smart and pick his spots, which from everything I've seen he already does well.
