If luis didn't wobble Hatton in the 12th there wouldn't be any fuss about this fight.

Although that said, Hatton should oblige the rematch in Manchester as Collazo asked for, to seal any doubter's minds.

But even after saying that = Collazo won the belt himself amid much split-descision controversy didn't he?? and didn't offer a rematch.

Anyway, this will debated for ever..back to thread: FIX? -not that fight, Luis was a Don King fighter and still lost!!

couple of things... I agreed that there is a difference. Ben Rabah could have KO'd Urango, then there's no robbery.

Hatton v. Collazo--you need to check your facts. Collazo landed more punches and at the better percentage. Just watch the results on the fight. Look at Hatton's face; listen to his corner. Everyone knew he lost that fight.

As for the knockdown... JM Marquez got knocked down 3x in one round, but demonstrated that he could still earn a draw against Pacquiao (my #1 P4P), so the flash knockdown shoudn't have influenced it that much--although I see your point.
