    Sure khan has looked bad lately but....

    He still is a good fighter with wins over ,Maidana , Peterson (robbery) Judah, Paulie

    Luis is a decent fighter but kind of old. He caught VIC but it didnt really show how good he was only lasted one round

    I expect Khan to be too fast and light up Collazo...

    Now Luis can catch Khan as Amir has a shot chin but Khan should be the favorite IMO

    but dont forget collazo has always been underrated. the man was robbed in the hatton fight and berto fight. i see collazo winning this fight by ko, i have 50 dollar bet that im very confident in. i just see khan getting clipped and all over the place. it's a 50 50 fight to be honest but im favoring collazo big time. quick handed, decent boxing skills, above average defense and has durable as they come. plus its been a long time coming for collazo. bad match for kahn even if he wins he goes through hell or gets gift win. collazo tko late rds

    I agree, Collazo has a 50% KO ratio and Khan has been training for like 7 damn months. Khan looks great in this fight, cuts up Collazo's face

    Collazo by wicked KO.

    Khan will still stalk Money for a fight though

    It's not that he's looked bad, it's that he's been figured out! Counter left hook all day, the guy can't stop it... Let one of those counter left hooks be delivered by a guy with power, and the fight is over

    Collazo hits pretty hard

    this would be a good fight. i agree 50/50 i like both boxers. i would like to see khan win just to see him fight money next but always been a collazo fan cus of those robbories and always that underdog that you want to see get the upset. may the best man win props to both.

    50% is more than enough for Khan's glass chin. Combine that with Collazo's boxing skills and it might derail Khan's chances of fighting Floyd.

    true but collazo is a southpaw so for him it would be a right hook. but i dont think he cant stop a hook, for me its when he gets hit flushed in the exchanges. khan to me is really to fast to counter punch a single shot from him. but when he opens up in combination he can get caught coming in or out. to me the hard punches khan dont see coming hurt him the most or just hard flush shot from good puncher. i think if motivated collazo lands the right punch on khan he can get him up through.

    Collazo is a good fighter who has been cheated, but Khan was cheated against Peterson with steroids......................this fight really depends on how much Hunter has done for Khan. The last time I saw Khan Hunter had made him go down hill, so I can't pick a winner, but if Khan is at his very best he will win, but never underestimate Collazo........

    Collazo-Khan is a good fight IMO.

    Hope it happens, I'm looking forward to it.

    Khan will win this fight by UD .....Collazo lost to Freddy Hernandez and beat a fragile Victor Ortiz

    peterson wasn't a robbery, peterson won that fight. Maidanas a basic slugger, a guy with khans skill should win that fight all day long. Judah turned up for a payday. Paulie looking back is a decent win but lets remember he's improved alot at 147...

    Khan goes on about a great resume but in reality his best win is probably maidana.... and B-C level fighter.

    Collazo is a clear cherry pickk, he has nothing to offer,not title or anything. Thurmans free. Why not make that match up? oh yeah he can punch.. collazos awkward but amir should beat him fairly easily. They'l sell the fight off collazos ko of ortiz.. in reality he has little power and we all know it.

    Great name above me ^^^ liverpool fan?

    The only thing regarding Peterson that was a "robbery" was the fact that Peterson was on PEDs.
