Collazo didn't do anything special, it's what Hatton DIDN'T do that made the fight that close
Nothing special. So I guess ricky came in the ring with his face looking beat up.And hattons biggest flaw was his lack of defense which he has been displaying for a while.I said after the tszyu fight that he needed better defense if he wanted to fight floyd and I feel the same way now and i've seen quite a few of his fights. The only thing that looked different about this fight is he didn't throw as many punches as usual. Which makes me think he didn't like what was coming back.Please don't discredit Collazo cause he gave your boy the hardest fight of his life and you know you didn't think it was possible.
