I've been a fan of Collazo since I saw him fight Hatton (who I thought he beat). I really hope he gets his dues by KOing Amir 'The Bolton Gobshite' Khan.

Collazo-Bradley for the belt is a good fight

I think it is going to happen. If Kahn is smart he will stay outside and never get in the pocket. I'm afraid that should Collazo get a good shot in (which i can only assume he will at some point) he will put Kahn in the kind of danger that he has had trouble getting out of. The word is that Kahn thought he had the fight with Mayweather and thus pulled out of a title fight back in December with Devon Alexander. When Mayweather decided on Maidana he told Kahn the best thing he could do would be to fight on the undercard of his ppv with Maidana and if he won he would likely be next. I'll give it to Kahn because most fighters would have taken the title shot against an easier opponent for a title. Kahn has big balls.

Bradley might have to fight Collazo after Collazo gets a belt because i don't think Bradley will have his much longer. I don't think he beat Pac Man the first time...a draw would have been a stretch. I don't think Pac Man is going to let it go to the judges this time.

I think Pacman-Bradley II is an intriguing fight. I agree that Bradley lost the first one, but I don't think it was by much. Pacquiao is on the slide, but Bradley has taken some monumental beatings since their first fight, and that has to effect him.

I really dunno how it plays out - Bradley deserves more respect than he gets though.

As for Collazo-Khan: I hope that Collazo beats the living shit out of him.

Seeing Joshua Clottey beat the living shit out of Anthony Mundine on Saturday was great - I've never liked Mundine.

If Clottey fought more regularly, he could be a real force at 154lbs.....

I think Bradley is going to win on points tonight?

Who's everyone else got?

[vandeleur]

Pac decision ....... if i was a gambler pac finishing it at the very death of the fight as bradley tries to mix it up ?

[binnie]

My only concern about Bradley is how much punishment he's taken in the past 3 fights. Maybe he's not what he was.

However, I really think he's a world class fighter. He might be able to make the adjustments necessary to out box Pacman.

[vandeleur]

I think both have something to prove , gonna be a good fight .

[jhale667]

All depends on who's got more of an edge at the moment; both are pretty shock-worn at this point.

I can see Pac winning a decision, or maybe a draw...we'll see.

[vandeleur]

TBH I think manny needs to stop this only fighting at the end of rounds bullshit , it might cost him a fight ... again.

[vandeleur]

pac on points ...

[binnie]

Pac's composure was great in that fight. It was pretty even by round 6, but he took control from then on.

Impressive victory. I had it 116-112. Close, but clear.

If Bhop wins tomorrow night, he will become a 49 year old world champ.

I'm not betting against him........

[vandeleur]

There has been a lot in the uk press about him , certainly had a bit of a life

I'm not either. You would think at some point the horse carriage is going to turn into a pumpkin and someone is going to knock him out unexpectedly. Until it happens i ain't believin' it.
