    The site with news on fights reported this earlier today.

    How do you see him matching up with Angulo, Martinez, Williams, Wright, Dzinziruk, Foreman, etc.

    He says he won't go back to 147 unless he gets a big fight, so he probably won't be going down to welterweight again. Do you think he'll be successful at SWW?

    154 is pretty weak Collazo could probaly outbox most of the top 10 at 154.

    I think Collazo would give Paul Williams hell.

    i think him vs williams is a 50/50 fight

    it'd be great if he & cotto fought,as long as cotto beats foreman

    No he is not. He says he's not boiling down to 147 to fight him. He says he needs to be fighting better fighters and that he has outgrown the ww division.

    Nah, the same article says he's not burning down to 147 to go fight an unknown kid in his own backyard. Plus theres some shenanigans with the purse bid and Don King bleh bleh bleh. I don't blame him a bit for saying **** it and testing new waters. Welterweight isn't the business anyway unless your name is Mayweather, Pacquiao, Mosley, or Berto.

    There are plenty of interesting fights for him at 154. I just wish Clottey would also move up there and maybe even face Collazo himself. Two former ww champs going at it on untested waters. Seems prety interesting to me.

    I think he was smart,fighting a turkish fighter in Turkey isnt a good idea.

    Wouldnt mind seeing him against Martinez if Sergio goes back to 154.
