    I'd say he's a good enough boxer to beat Hatton, Margarito, & Baldomir(who i think cant handle a fighter who stay on his toes & boxes), but his footwork isn't good enough to contend with Mayweather, but it would be a good fight. Although i do think it's kind of ****ed up that this guy proved himself against what some consider one of the best fighters in the world, & hasn't been mentioned since.

        Yeah it seems like he is the odd man out in the WW division. Clottey is getting more publicity than him and I think Collazo was more impressive in losing than Clottey was in winning (if that is possible).

          True, Clottey didn't look all that great, does anyone know if he had hurt his hands at any point? there was a big shift around the 4 or 5 round when he stopped hitting hard & started grabbing & pawing his punches.

              Collazo already called out MArgirito, but Tony (obviously) didnt respond.

                Collazo just lost to a 140 lber. Who gives a **** who he calls out? He needs to get a win.

                  That is a little bit harsh. He just lost to the recognized king of the 140 pound division who is undefeated in 41 fights (yes somewhat untested). Collazo didn't get blown away and seemed to really be coming on at the end of the fight. At the very least he is deserving of a rematch with Hatton. And if Hatton vacates I don't think there is anything wrong with Collazo being involved in the title eliminator.

                      I don't mean to be harsh, but when you lost your last figh to a smaller guy, even if it is Hatton, it makes it difficult for you to call someone like Margarito out. Collazo deserves a rematch with Hatton, but Hatton is going to 140 so he probably won't get it.
