    Yeah. The 2006/7 Collazo definitely could/should have. This ain't the Collazo of 2006/7 though.

    I was happy to see he was mounting a comeback, but with guarded optimism. A knockout of Franklin Gonzalez doesn't really announce the return of an elite.

    This was the bout that was going to really tell us what Collazo had left at world level. Apparently, not enough. :-(

    Collazo is finished as a top fighter now, its a shame but that's just the way it is.

    Bozella is walking to the ring.

    Nobody post any more spoilers about that bout, as it's reportedly going to be fit in somewhere on the PPV on delay. :nono

    Here is the running order:

    Paul Malignaggi vs. Orlando Lora, 10 rounds

    Danny Garcia vs. Kendall Holt, 12 rounds

    Jorge Linares vs. Antonio DeMarco, 12 rounds

    Bernard Hopkins vs. Chad Dawson, 12 rounds


    (with room possibly made somewhere to sneak in a replay of:
    Dewey Bozella vs. Larry Hopkins, 4 rounds

    ...maybe in full if at least one of the three PPV undercard bouts ends very early)

    Anyone else think Lora might pull the upset?

    His level of opposition isn't the finest, but he does have many redeeming qualities. This could become a Gatti Ward type fight if Paulie is ready to trade.


    Let the slaps begin for making the comparison.:blood

    That gif is hypnotising. I like the changes in facial expression, too.
