    ricky's fight with collazo, i think ricky had a few disadvantages.

    collazo is a natural light-middleweight, ricky is a natural light-welterweight.

    collazo is a southpaw, ricky has trouble with southpaws.

    im not sure, but i heard ricky was sick coming into that fight.

    and i think ricky recieved short notice to fight collazo, not sure on that one either.

    ricky and team hatton tried to bulk up as much as possible for that welterweight fight, and now they say that was a bad idea. last time i heard, team hatton is trying to have ricky come in a little over the light-welterweight limit, probably around 142-144, so he can keep his speed, and be closer to his natural weight class; against floyd mayweather jr.

      What about Tszyu? Oliveria? Phillips, and even Maussa?
      Two were washed up journeymen , one was a faded champ at 36 and the other one was the worst WC Ive ever seen that just got iced by a young gun in a round .

        I won't make excuses. Hatton lost the Collazo fight IMO. But it is a well known fact that he was fighting with the Flu when he fought Collazo.

          I don't think Tszyu wasn't washed up against Hatton. Sure he had injuries before that, but he was still regraded as good.

          Hatton just looked great on that night.

            If that's your opinion then you must think Mayweather's "Greatest Hits" came against two "B class" Mexicans with more guts than talent, a washed up Artruo Gatti, a washed up Zab Judah, some guy who sells feather dusters for a living, and a past his prime transvestite DLH.

              oh, so he had the Flu. thanks for verifying.

              i had that fight a draw. i wonder who were the other welterweight champs during the time ricky fought collazo? (collazo being the WBA at the time)

              IBF = http://www.boxrec.com/title_search.p...ight&SUBMIT=Go

              WBC =

                judah was the IBF at the time.

                judah was the WBC at the time.

                margarito was the WBO at the time.


                how do you think hatton would have done against judah and marg at the time? if he chose one of them instead of collazo?

                  Judah was only recognized because Baldomir refused to pay the sanctioning fees. Everybody knows Baldomir was the Champion.

                  And I for one would love to see Margarito/Hatton but I doubt it ever gets made due to the big size difference.

                    Castillo and Chico were prime , Gatti was shot , Judah was the best best prepared he has ever been , Oscar a hof who just stiffened Mayorga was faded but had 14 lb advantage .

                    You asked what about Phillips and co and I tell you straight and you dont like it , what did you ask about them for ?

                      Because you disrespected those fighters and what they've accomplished when you decided to type what you did.
