    Collazo really is nothing to worry about for Garica.

    He's a good boxer and still has solid skills but he's passed prime, doesn't punch hard and there for the taking basically.

    It's an obvious fight to make IMO.

      He has more power than Paulie, but still not devastating power that will buckle a fighter moving up 1 weight division.

      He's a southpaw but so is Pacquiao, Devon Alexander and Guerrero so Garcia will likely encounter another one in his welterweight run.

        At Barclay Center...I would be OK with that match up or Lamont Peterson! Of course he has to win his next fight FIRST

          Exactly. Collazo is a solid debut opponent for Garcia. He presents just enough risk to where Garcia cannot underestimate him, but still should realistically win if he adjusts.
