    I think a lot of people are giving Collazo way too big of a chance here. I may not have seen Collazo fight all that much but I think Berto will come away with a somewhat easy win here. I always thought Berto needed to up his level of opposition to convince me of him. Collazo isn't all that much a step up, he's is known so at least it's a step in the right direction...

    Collazo is a good solid fighter that can be very dangerous i wouldnt be surprised if he takes a points win.

    Collazo is a durable capable fighter but Id be surprised if he beat Berto .

    Andre boxes abit like Sugar Shane did. He has got more to his game than Luis and hes still improving . Berto points or late stoppage .

    Berto is much more of a pure boxer than Shane, Even though he is faster than Shane ever was, he uses his shoulders better for defense, he has a way better jab and cross, the only worry for me is that he has that tendency to stand in the pocket and he is no Floyd Mayweather, nor does he have Shane's chin.

    I dont think Berto is a squick as Shane was when he was a lightweight. That speed was unrivalled

    Berto is a cross between Shane and Floyd . What a mix!

    He handspeed is, and he footspeed is quicker at welterweight. Mosley wasn't as fast as Jones or Gamboa, or Meldrick p4p.

    Collazo can spoil a bit in fights, he had success against Hatton because Ricky had to come to him (that and he's a southpaw). Collazo has shown in past fights specifically against Cassiani and Mosley he doesn't do well against right hooks and uppercuts when thrown with speed. Berto's special move the right hook, right upper combo is going to be devastating in this fight.
    For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.

    No, I can't see Berto stopping Collazo, but I think the people who are saying Collazo will win are crazy. He has a low output, he's very fast, but still slower than Berto, he has virtually no power, and he isn't as good of a boxer as Berto or as hard to hit.

    I think Collazo could do well for the first few rounds, like you said he is reasonably fast and he is a southpaw. As the fight wears on though he is sure to slow down as Berto picks up the pace. I'm actually looking forward to this fight.

    A Berto KO of Collazo? It's possible, but I wouldn't bet on it. I agree that Berto should win this fight, but I also agree that Collazo is a fighter who shouldn't be taken lightly. I think he is a very solid test for Berto at this point, an excellent gauge of how Berto is developing. I think Berto wins on points, but I won't be putting any money on this one.

    Agreed, I think Berto's power & speed will get to Collazo. I think he will stop him in the last 2 rounds, although I wouldn't be surprised if Collazo can take it the distance, but I just don't see him having as good chin as Forbes, I think if Hatton drops him then Berto will as well

    I don't understand why Hatton shouldn't have been given the KD, yes Collazo was slightly off-balance but that doesn't change the fact that he still went down from a Hatton punch, & I'd say Berto hits a lot harder. Also yes whilst Collazo did well late on against Hatton, part of that can be attributed to the fact Hatton tried too hard to go for the kill after knocking Collazo down & tired himself out, a mistake I don't think Berto will make if he does drop Collazo early

    oh yeah no question berto hits harder, his workrate is slower and more deliberate, i havent seen him tire himself out asyet, hes a good boxer so if he is to catch collazo he has more chance then hatton as hes much cleaner a boxer puncher..

    the knockdown is a judgement call but for me.. It wasnt a knockdown and should have been a deciding factor in the fight but the scorecards were off anyway..

    But no worries .. its not happeninggg Louie is bringing it homee
