    One of the easiest fights I've seen to score. Nearly all rounds were pretty clear cut. I had Hatton winning by a couple of points

    Agreed.

    And it was not a hard fight to score.

    It was very close, but I thought Collazo won. Hatton was getting hammered in the final rounds - he was very close to being KTFO. His face at the end as well, he thought he had lost. I wasn't a "robbery", because there wasn't that much between the two of them, but yeah, Collazo should have got the decsion, IMO.

    The ENTIRE boxing community disagree with you on that one.

    I forgot, a fight is won and lost in the last round. Sure Hatton was in trouble but dude, don't let that get in the way of the FACT he did more in the first 2/3 of the fight. It's a collection of points, not who looks good when the bell goes.

    Three things - firstly, who the **** are you to say what the "entire boxing community" thinks? :huh

    Secondly, I didn't mention anything about the fight being decided on the final round. Perhaps its best if you only respond to things which people ACTUALLY wrote, and not what you IMAGINED they did.

    If you're going to try and be all saracastic and ****, don't even ****ing talk to me.

    Thirdly, depending on who you talk to, the first 6 rounds were mostly Hatton, or ...Collazo could have taken one or two, and there was a couple that were mostly even. The next few rounds were all highly debatable, from RD 8 onwards it was ALL Collazo. Hatton was hanging on. It was a close fight, anyone who says different is a fool or can't add up.

    Its been a while since I saw the fight, but off the top of my head I seem to remember scoring it ...

    RD 1-6 - four for Hatton, one for Collazo, one even.
    RD 7-12 - five to Collazo, one even.

    So every close round went to Hatton in your eyes?

    View the poll results, read the forum. This is a forum full of opinion. Don't like it, log off.

    I see. Hatton nearly getting KTFO and his face says it all means squat. Watch the fight again, objectively, you will see Hatton did more. It's a fact. Yes the fight was close but Hatton won.

    Don't read the post then, it's optional.

    Only one fool in this thread claimed the fight was easy to score and Collazo should have won. I disagree, some rounds were tight and given a choice, I went to Hatton for bringing it.

    Please, if you don't like opinion different to yours, there's no point being a ***** about it. It makes you look immature. Try countering with a sound argument instead.

    Opinion, what opinion? Your opinion is: "fights aren't won or lost based on the performance in the final round" - **** me, thats the opinion of a boxing genius! How did we ever cope not knowing such an important fact, for all these years? Shame on us.

    Still speaking for the "entire boxing community" are we?

    No one is, pay attention.

    What else are you going to teach us today then, you boxing genius you, how about another super insightful comment, like "to win a boxing match, you have to punch the other man in the head".

    Its such an honour, having someone like you, someone who speaks for the entire boxing community, on here, to educate us simple folk.
