I scored the fight as a draw.

I still feel Hatton was lucky to have won the fight. 

I have a helluva lot of admiration for Ricky and he is one of my favourite sport stars but was dissapointed with him last night and as soon as he ocmes up against a power puncher in this division he is done for.

One thing that never seemed to work for him last night was his body shots these normally cripps his opponents.  Jim Watt made a commenet about how better boxers keep their guard tight and son't let decent body punchers get at them whats the opinions on that?


tysu was the best for how many years,i'm not sure? but he wore, what had been one of the tightest defences for a decade, down with the ferocity of his body shots.

he was'nt jolly for that fight either.

i dont subscribe to that theory, just an off night i think.

If you nick a win when putting in a below standard performance at this level then it shows the true class of ricky hatton i think.

Collazo was a difficult opponent, Hattons toughest fight so far. Collazo is a south paw as well, and is very tall, so you can see why it was his most difficult fight. I do think that his trainer has to go back to the drawing board if he has any chance against the top fighters. Hatton may have to change style and learn how to jab, or he will simply be picked off by the best.

come on nemesis, leave it out mate.

You cant really believe that!

The only time i've known hatton to be odds against in he's proffessional career was agains tsu and he slaughtered him.

who are these better opponents and what level of class is he yet to achieve.

Am i missing something

I quoted Hatton. He said that this was his toughest fight so far. The Tszyu fight look great on paper but in reality he was an old man who had only fought 3 rounds in 2 years and against a hungry younger man in Hatton. Castillo, PBF, DLH, , Cotto, Mosley etc.. are the better opponents I'm talking about.

Hatton was looking to his next opponent before this fight. I think he underestimated Collazo.

Still think he did enough to win but not by much. PBF will beat Hatton eyes shut on this performance.
