I had seen clips of Collazo, and thought he had enough tools to outscore Hatton hugely or stop him (and with him being naturally bigger, and a southpaw). You see, I don't think Hatton is anywhere near the fighter he has been in years gone by. I haven't seen tonights fight yet, but I thought he looked absolutely horrible against Tszyu and Maussa (compared to his former self).
Read the four posts below if you don't believe that I predicted Collazo win:
For me, Hatton needs to start fighting more regularly again. He's 28 years old so he's already years past his physical peak, and he's only fighting twice a year! And he's blowing up to 190+ between fights! It really is no wonder that his skills have eroded so badly, and physically I don't think it's possible now for him to get all his speed and skills back.
He needs to go back down to 140 though and start fighting more regularly again, because he's not getting any younger and his style suits being younger and fresher than he is.
Talk to me about the fight, because I can't visualise how Ricky could of possibly outscored Collazo if Collazo was in the form I saw him in while Hatton being blown-up, rusty and in no form whatsoever.
