    The master Gate Keeper.

    Without guys like him, we will never understand the boxing fighting hierarchy.

    Respect to Collazo, a future hall of famer. Gate Keepers deserve respect.

    Collazo gets rid of all the pretenders.

    he looked sharp as hell, just watched it. he looked decent in defence when tagged, covered up well, and in control under pressure picking shots through vasquez' charges.

    He fought really well, I remember thinking he was done in 2011 when he lost to Hernandez.

    He beat Berto easily IMO Pushed Hatton to the brink. Has decent wins over Gonzalez & Ortiz. Gave Thurman a nightmare fight recently too. Ultimate gatekeeper. Respect.

    I personally thought he beat Hatton though the early knock down hurt his campaign. It seems as if he's been around forever....he's gritty but has always been a cut below the best even when he had a strap.

    His return to relevance is the epitome of an underdog/rocky story in boxing.. Love it, one of the major reasons why we're all boxing fans.
