      Collazo isn't known for power but may drop Khan at least once. However Khan will run all night long to a decision. **** fight. It should have been Khan vs Thurman, Brooks, Porter, or even Alexander.

        Probably wasn't a wise move, on Khan's part, to fight on the Mayweather undercard. I like Amir, he's got great hand-speed, decent footwork, and a nice jab, but I just think he'll lose concentration and get tagged hard.

        Collazo by stoppage.

          khans first fight at ww, after a year long lay off, and a shakey perfomance against diaz i'd hardly call this a **** fight

          collazo is a far bigger threat than brook and devon..he can punch, fight and take a punch and is proven


          porter is already booked to fight

          and thurmann no current ww wants to fight him, so u expect khan who's never fought at ww to jump in the ring with a guy every top ww is duckin...

            I'm worrying that Virgil Hunter is actually making Khan worse and worse every fight. Such a shame.

                I like Collazo for this fight.

                He is more active than Khan and is a very dangerous and underrated fighter.

                If he survives the early rounds he can wear Khan down, maybe even get a stoppage.

                Collazo has a solid resume, and if Khan thinks he is an easy option and a stepping stone to FMJ then he could be found out. Collazo deserves a big fight, beating Khan will put him in the frame.

                Khan could go exactly the same way that Victor went.

                Too much BS talk, not enough fighting.

                War Collazo!

                  I think a lot of people think Collazo is a massive puncher after having seen his fight with Ortiz.

                  He's an average puncher in my opinion, but is tough and a little rugged. Style wise he's made for Khan.

                    So difficult to call. Khan has skill (though it seemed to go missing the last couple of times) but his chin is... questionable... to say the least.

                      On a side note, there is a serious lack of names on this card that could hurt PPV sales.

                      Khan has never been more than a good name in the US and Maidana/Collazo I'd be surprised if casuals have heard of them before.

                      Therell need to be some more beefing up if they want this to be a success imo
