LOL @ Khantards acting like Collazo is some great win. They're so desperate to make their hero look good.

Prescott could punch, but so could Collazo ie Ortiz, sure he is not a devastating puncher, but he can get you out of there if need be.Prescott can punch and he knocked Khan out when he was a domestic level fighter. It happens.
Collazo was well passed it hadn't had a good win on years and showed it against Hernandez and it wasn't one punch he was soundly beaten.
The Berto and Hatton fights happened in 2006 and 2009. Did Khan fight Collazo in 2006 or 2009? No he fought the shot version on 2014 the one who was beaten by a literal bum in Herandez.
If Khan had beaten Collazo in 06 or 09 that would have been a decent win. But he didn't he fought him this year.
I know you didn't imply he was elite. You implied it was a good win. It was neither.
Hernandez's bout prior to that was for Berto's WBC title, so "at the time" Collazo was fighting a solid opponent who was a recent World title challenger. Another thing how Hernandez turned out to be later on, it's like not giving Mayweather credit for beating Corley who "at the time" was a force.
I can also turn your "2006-2009" comment and say he lost to him in 2011 and Khan fought him 3 years on.
It's the same music note time and time again (not saying you in specific) where Khan's opponents are built up to knock him out and when they lose all sorts of things start to matter all of a sudden.Comment

Khan has nothing in boxing
Khan is empty devoid of a title belt and devoid of fans there is nothing Khan has that fans or any fighter wants. Sand man Khan should retire now saving Khan from future embarrassment and losses. Granted the weak punchless powerless Devon is an easy fight for the weak Khan but it means nothing in boxing. Porter destroyed devon. Khan is good for a laugh nothing more.Comment

Dropping a guy 3 times, winning every round, yet he didnt look great?OK - I thought that Collazo could make it difficult for Khan, he used to be durable and proved a tricky opponent for the likes of Hatton and Berto.
But he was clearly not anywhere near his prime, and even at his prime he would have done well to beat Khan.
That's my point - Khan did nothing spectacular at all, he just won a fight that on paper he should have.
I don't think Khan looked great at all - its all about levels.
given what was on the line, given that it was khans first fight at 147, it was a great performance
he did not put a step wrong, collazo is not a fighter you can look good against, but khan managed to do so.
and there were notable improvements in khan, from his footwork, movement, jab, sitting on punches and some inside work, but i guess u didnt see anything Stevie wonderComment

I wish both guys would win. Both guys desperately need it. That's why I'm not sure Devon won't be going for broke at some point and land something clean.Comment
