Yup; and a crafty one. There's no worse fighter to face than a slick southpaw IMO.

I think Luis has little chance. The difference in speed between Mosley and Hatton is significant for one. Plus, I think that if Luis got dropped by Hatton (even if off-balanced) then he could be in trouble against Shane if he gets caught with a hook. Plus, I think Hatton won about 8 rounds and while I would call it a very close fight with some tight rounds, the perception of the closeness isn't really right to me, its just that Hatton was rocked in the 12th as the last hting in your mind. Hatton was a junior welter moving up, Shane is a junior middle going down, hence he will have no problems taking Collazo's punch and he doesn't really have KO power anywaysComment

I'm telling you, you guys are giving Mosley waaay too much credit for his stoppage of Vargas, who was shot and weight-drained. Styles make fights; and Collazo, who is a slick southpaw approaching his prime, is going to give the 35 year old Mosley fits. Speed is relative; and looking fast against a shopworn Vargas is not the same thing as looking fast against a prime of his life Collazo. Also, Hatton doesn't fight like Mosley, nothing close, so this fight will not ever remotely resemble that one.
Just a few thoughts, fellas. This is boxing, not a fantasy match-up with prime Mosley going after the current Collazo. This is going to be a huge test for Shane IMHO....and he may not pass it.Comment

you got to be dumb to think mosely won't be atleast a 4-1 favorite. but it will defiately be a exciting fight. i think you'll see collazo box a little more. but then again i think he have a few rounds when he'll stay in the middle of the ring and slug it out.Comment
