I wasnt dissapointed, and I'm boricua. As mentioned before, he faced a better fighter, a guy in a league of his own that night, and he put up a solid fight. Showed heart in staying in there with a broken hand, but Mosley was simply better. Collazo will bounce back and still ripple the waters at 147.

you think hurting his hand affected the outcome, they said it broke in 3 places. and he looked really good in the second round, the only round that all three judges gave him.
mosely i believe would of still won, his experience and his physical shape was definately better.Comment

actually i think it was the biggest he came in at.
with rivera he was about 154 and hatton at 156.
this past saturday he came it at 160, i don't think that mattered anyway.
in this fight it was about the angles.Comment

on one of the other fights they reported:
Collazo suffered broken thumb!
Former welterweight champion Luis Collazo made a brief appearance at the post-fight press conference Saturday night where he revealed a hand injury that occurred after he landed a succession of straight lefts in the second and third rounds before losing a unanimous decision to "Sugar" Shane Mosley at Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas. A post-fight x-ray recommended by the Nevada State Athletic Commission revealed a fracture to Collazo's left thumb and three torn ligaments. He also received five stitches on his left eyelid caused by an accidental head butt in the fourth round. He undergo surgery next week.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Collazo's co-trainer Byron Oglesby told *********, "This was a very unfortunate situation. To be in a fight of this magnitude and for an injury like that to take place is very disappointing. It’s unfortunate but what can you do? That’s the nature of the business. Louie is still the future of the welterweight division. Hopefully, God willing, we can make the fight happen again. This was a pure testament of the level and caliber of Louie’s talent. To be a able to compete with a fighter of Shane Mosley’s pedigree with a broken hand for ten rounds lets you know that there aren’t to many athletes like him around. He will be doing big things in the future. No one is trying to discredit Shane’s victory, but he got of the hook this time.Comment

As far as I know real Puerto Ricans from the island dont even like him. He disrespected Cotto with ****** steroid rumors that got a lot of people pissed. Hes from New York. You should be asking did he dissapoint the people from New York. He aint from Puerto Rico so why would they be dissapointed?
I hate Collazo and im glad he lost. He wants throwing as many punches as possible because he couldnt. He wasnt in there with Jose Rivera or Ricky Hatton, he was in there with Shane Mosley. Its harder to let your hands go against Mosley then anyone else he has faced. Collazo didnt belong in the same ring as Mosley.Comment
