Collazo vs Danny Garcia

[Bushbaby]

Dangerous fight for any young upncomer messing with Collazo. Especially coming up in weight.

[Mr. Philadel]

Perfect first fight at 147.

Collazo was supposed to be the first fight for Hatton at 147....he was supposed to be the first fight back for Ortiz....bottom line, Collazo is NOT a good first fight for anybody....Swift shouldn't look his way until a title is on the line....after getting his feet re-wet at 147 because Swift been there before...but Collazo is a serious problem for cats like Swift, Thurman, Maidana, Matthysse, Porter and any other WW on deck at GBP IMO

What a perfect idea for a fight. They could hold it in the Barclay's no problem. Make it happen!

Garcia is better than Hatton and Ortiz

[IronDanHamza]

Makes sense.

Would do good business at the Barclays Centre.

Garcia is better than them and I'm still not convinced that Collazo is a prime fighter right now. He's a tough, rugged veteran with skills and will be a challenge but any elite fighter, which I think Swift is, should handle him.

I don't think this fight is anymore dangerous than somebody like Paulie.

Man, stopping Ortiz made a lot of people scared of Luis Collazo.

I think Garcia handles him quite comfortably. Good fight to make.

[LA_2_Vegas]

Ohh good idea, definitely feeling this one. I give Collazo his due for the nice KO but not ready to overrate the win, kinda how I feel about Porter's win over Devon, two vulnerable guys fighting tougher than usual comeback fights. Not totally unexpected outcomes given that fighters like Porter and Luis are r ready to fight all the time. I agree that I'm not convinced COllazo is durable enough in his age to give and take with Danny, two handed thudding power. Garcia by tko

I don't think you need convincing. It's pretty damn obvious that he's well well well passed his prime.

The guy lost comfortably to Freddy Hernandez a few years ago and hasn't looked any better since then.

The difference is that Collazo is a southpaw and obviously has more power than Paulie (who doesn't?). But we've seen that Garcia can handle himself against southpaws and power. I think that Mr. Philadel is just a little worried that Collazo could potentially upset the apple cart.
