    Collazo.lol Thought Amir always fought the best, someone should explain that statement to him, he quotes it alot and then wonders why he gets all the negativity when he picks such lame opponents.

    Not the best opponent but at least Collazo has the power to hurt Khan, will not be easy and Khan could possibly be KO'd

    Luis Collazo is a proper welterweight who has decent power and if he hurts Khan he will finish him.
    Khan would have looked good against Collazo a couple of years back, but how will he cope now after all the hard fights and inactivity he's had?
    Good fights this one.

    Once again Khan getting heavily criticized. Decent fight this, Collazo looked desent in beating Ortiz and is a heavy, stong 147lb'r. Can seriously hurt Khan here and plus the fights on a Mayweather card further giving credit to his chances of fighting Floyd.

    All things considered no qualms from me whatsoever with this fight

    It's a good fight, Collazo is awkward, underrated and is a good counter puncher, he beat Hatton and Berto in my eyes. I'm feeling Collazo will make it a hard night, he may drop Khan.

    War Collazo, Khan will have to show improvements to win this, i haven't been impressed with Amir since he stopped working with Ariza, not taking shots as well as he was in 2009-2011. Hunter has actually made him worse as well.

    Just noticed that Khan will be on Maidana's under card, how often has someone beat someone in a main event then a few years later they are on the undercard of the man they beat?.

    This is a very decent opponent for your first fight at 147. Decent power and always competitive.

    Lets remember Kell's a mandatory for a title at 147 and has never been anywhere near someone as good as Collazo.

    Im glad Collazo is getting a fight on a Floyd card

    Very unlucky fighter

    Beat Hatton & Berton in my opinion, got injured early against Mosely

    Career could have been completely different if not for those tough breaks

    Interesting fight, and for Khans first fight at 147 its a valid opponent

    Collazo is the better boxer

    Ducked Kell Brook to fight Collazo, what a joke. The Brook fight would be huge in Britain but he faces a guy whose best win is Victor Ortiz and has lost to Andre Berto

    Decent enough fight, Collazo is a underrated fighter. No point him fighting anyone World Class if he is in line for the mayweather shot.
