    Collazo, Cotto, Cintron, and Mosley

    I know we've all been wondering what the **** is going on with these 4 guys and their next fights. I spoke with Luis Collazo's publicist and he said that the Mosley-Collazo fight was right there, almost made, but last minute the Mosley camp chose Cintron. Now I'm being informed that the IBF owes Cintron 100 grand from the last fight and that no contract has been signed.

    So with Collazo the odd man out again, street teams have been assigned in Puerto Rico to build hype for a clash with Collazo and Cotto in the summer. Optimistically, that fight would generate a huge fuss in NY but realistically, Arum isn't going to get along with Collazo promoter Don King so Cotto-Margarito is looking much more possible.

    Hopefully in the next week this can all be resolved and we'll see whats going on.

    Obviously Cintron was a better fight for Mosley to take. Less frustrating style (potentially), a title, and more money.

    I can't see a Cotto/Collazo fight coming off either.

      Maybe Collazo could rematch Rivera at 154 if Rivera beats Simms?

        Rivera might beat him at 154, he's much stronger there and Collazo has no business at 154.

            the problem people with just boxing skills is a bit hard for them to get recognation but he have to to find a good fight or maybe got down or up.

            people dont remeber a close fight but they remeber a W in the record that is one of the biggest problem with boxing

              But as you have said, there's no point in that without a belt.

              I would like to see Hatton back in with Collazo though. I think he'd beat him clearer this time. The knockdown took him out of his gameplan, same as Manny agaisnt JMM

                At this rate Collazo will have no business at 147..................

                  Cotto? Dont matter who it is he beats em! Mosley vs Cintron is a much better fight for Shane than Collazo, far easier!

                    Mosley is older now...throws a lot less combos...isn't what he used to be.

                    But he can still punch. He can still throw hard, sharp, accurate shots to the head. If he ever faces Cotto, he will brain him.
