I know Boxrec isn't 100% but this fight is slated for the Mayweather undercard.
Who wins?
I think it's a tricky comeback fight for Broner. He took a brutal beating against Maidana. Collazo is no longer in his prime but he's still tough and capable of giving many fighters a tough night. Is this the right comeback fight for Broner? Or is he making a mistake?
Matthysse gets Thurman for a comeback and Broner gets Collazo.....if you would've told me that a few weeks ago....I would've went 'Roger Mayweather' on you.....imo Broner need to go down to 140 and set up shop!!...Collazo not only have the skills to beat Broner, he can make him look bad in the process as well.....I don't know about this one....but hey, if he is who he says he is then it should be easy work for Broner....but I seriously doubt it!!
Oh *****! Not good for Broner, I remember when AB 1 got schooled by Collazo. Maybe they will give Broner the gift like they did in that fight.
Seriously, this is a tough fight coming off that beating. Collazo is very slick and can take a punch, I would think AB 2 would have to out work him, but that's not his style.
I don't feel as if Broner has anything to prove at Welterweight.. you have to be a pretty damn good fighter to fight in or above your natural weight successfully, and Broner isn't quite there.
If Broner can still make 135, he should campaign there as the division isn't that strong, not many challenges there for him. It might bring him back some hype.
He can always make a comeback to 147 in the future to try add some irrelevancy to the Maidana loss... i.e to show Broner just wasn't ready for the leap
