damn it! so much for the fight coming to the Garden!!!! I feel your pain brother... Dibella teased fans from a few locations before settling for Biloxi....

seen Joe on espn a few times,.. he's somewhat athletic,.. has few good tools,.. but can be wild and undisciplined at times,.. the ultra smooth boxing Martinez should pick him apart enroute to a UD,.. then maybe challenge Paul Williams who would be hard pressed to deflate Martinez's bicycle tires.

Collazo UD, but he will have a tough time with Berto In the other fight Martinez by easy UD.

Awesome fights. Kudos to team DiBella and all parties involved. Joe Green was the hottest prospect at 160 a couple years ago and it now seems he can't find a home at 154 or 160. I question his handling to be honest. I think he'll make a fight of it with Martinez. Everyone is talking about a UD but if it is, I don't think it will be a landslide. Joe Greene has something to prove. Martinez does have tremendous experience which could be the deciding factor.
For Berto, although he won the title, it was almost a 2008 to be forgot. With possible big fights and then them falling through, he had a bit of a stagnet year. Collazo is exciting to watch and you can't count him out. I would guess more than 50% of the population had him beating Hatton. Or at least had it much closer than the judges. She be a good battle. A true test for Berto.
I'd like to see Hearns on the broadcast as well. But we can't be greedy because it's nice to have these two fights nto on PPV. Golden Boy would have put them on PPV and charge $55.

i can see berto having a real prob with collazo, i think he will win but this will be his toughest test by far. and green should handle martinez pretty easy if he takes the fight seriously. anyone wanna bet on these fights just hit me up, i like berto and green

This can be an interesting matchup if Collazo comes to fight. He has a great southpaw right hook but his problem sometimes is that he takes a little while to get going.

Skill-wise, Collazo has every tool to pull off the upset. What I'm concerned about more is mentally, will he put himself in position to win this fight or will he stay in his shell, let Berto get off first and cruise to an L.

With Joe Greene, the money must have been too good to pass up. Martinez is no joke and he's much faster than Greene. Greene is going to have to cut the ring off and stop following his man around.

I'm picking Collazo to win this fight.
