I think the fight should happen. I seen the Ring Ranking and Berto is #7 and Collazo is #8. Fighters ranked 1-6 will all have fights soon. Fighter 9 and 10 will be rematching in Germany.
So I see no reason for this fight not to happen. Plus the first fight was so damn good
Thoughts
Absolutely... but I think it's one of those HIGH HIGH risk low reward fights that is just not worth it to them.
I think they are taking their win and running with it.
I think Berto will fight Paulie or Nate Campbell next.
I am a fan of Berto, but the right thing to do would be to rematch Collazo and prove you're the better man.
I hope not. Was there talk of him fighting one of these guys or is this just the direction you think he's headed?
I'm glad that the people here weren't crying robbery after the first fight, because Berto definitely won, even though it was close.
In a rematch I see Berto by an easy decision. He wouldn't be stupid enough to fight on the inside and trade like he did in the first fight, and when they went the distance Berto dominated him.
It was a close match and a damn good one.
I had Berto up by one, even though I wanted Collazo to win. When they ref warned Berto for excessive holding, he started boxing more and the tides started to turn in his favor.
They should have rematched when it was fresh on everyones mind.

Plus, he did say that he'd "love to give him a rematch".

It wasn't a robbery, but it was certainly close enough to go 114-113 either way at the most. It all depends on what you like when scoring - everything's subjective when rounds are as close as they were in that fight.
