Sure Hatton was the aggressor, but watch the fight closely... he landed very little meaningful shots from around the 4th round onwards. Most of the punches he threw either missed or hit the gloves/arms of Collazo. If you are still going to be scoring rounds for fighters who are having their punches blocked, then you are not following the rules. Collazo was hitting Hatton with nice combos and generally being all round more effective, although I could see how some people might score certain rounds for Hatton on first viewing.
I think 'compu whatever it's called' had Hatton landing more punches with a 35% success rate and Collazo 30% success rate with less punches thrown.

Although I thought it was a tough call and perhaps more likely a draw as per my first post:

Overconfident, overawed, outboxed, that's how I saw the fight in the early hours of the morning. I am a huge Hatton fan and hold a natural bias for the man from my home town. BUT This was without a shadow of a doubt the most difficult performance/matchup I have ever witnessed of Hatton's, and I have seen the majority of them. What certainly was apparent was that Hatton could not bully in the ring at the new weight. I dont use the term 'bully' in a derogotory term as that is his style and that is the style I like to see, but he couldn't do it this morning. I really didn't think the fact that Collazo was taller, would be the difficulty, Hatton has faced taller compition previously (such as the Maussa), but it did prove difficult. As correctly noted by Sky in their commentary, Hatton kept getting hit by the right hook from Colazzo, and that was when he could see! His left eye was so badly shut by the latter rounds that he was getting hit with alarming regularity. I had the fight tight. I did think Colazzo was shook several times in the fight, but felt he definitely got through with the cleaner shots. Hatton did work hard as usual and did outwork as he normally does, but simply without the power and snap we are accustomed to seeing. I hate to say it but have to agree with Colazzo when he said he expects a guy to do better than that to take his title. I would have to agree. It now leaves unanswered questions about Hatton at 147. At 140 I think he is too strong a prospect but may have real difficulties with the bigger weight. I admire Ricky for moving up, fighting for a belt straight away and fighting in the states, but the man who really impressed me tonight was Luis Collazo, who was quick with his hands, courageous, gracious in defeat (considering the closeness) and a guy who can make giant steps in the welterweight division.
