    Haymon paid Collazo to "throw" the fight.

    Aztecas tribute. Although that did look fixed as hell.

    I agree. This Haymon nonsense is getting REDICULOUS. This guy is more corrupt than Don King and Bob Arum put together...

    I was bit anxious about the fight.i cant pin point it but something is wrong in the fight.
    I had this feeling collazo took a dive.i dun have the proof but my guts telling me somebody is pulling the strings.

    Well, if Mayweather-Thurman happens in September, we'll know for certain.

    If the fight was fixed why take a dive on the stool like that. Thurman was already up on all the score cards. Who knows what happen, collazo was doing better then expected and looking to win the fight in every round but was paid to take a dive?

    It is simply a coincidence that Collazo went blind just before the 7.5 round over/under and the official result is RTD 7. This is boxing. It's not like people would ever end a fight at peculiar times for the sake of degenerate gamblers. There's integrity to protect here, bub.

    Move along. Nothing to see here.

    I didn't see the fight so can't comment on it yet. But will say Wilder's whole career stinks of foul play.

    If the fight was fixed, then it probably wasn't a good idea for Collazo to connect on s hellacious body shot and follow it up with a number of shots with seriously bad intentions.

    True. I believe Collazo fought to win.

    But they may also have had a couple of bucks on the under, just in case, who knows.

    idk, his eye didn't look that bad and he still fought like he had his vision, but he probably was broken down mentally and decided to quit because thurman hits a little too hard. we will never know

    Fixed indeed. He hurt him to the body and laughed at Thurman when the round ended but remembered he's supposed to lose. Makes sense to me.

    Yes, Thurman is overrated. Mayweather up ahead.

    A distance bet pays out regardless of who ultimately wins it.

    It was pretty convenient timing to call it off right before it crossed the over/under. I can't say for sure because it's his body, but it'd be the first time I've seen a boxer legitimately not have eyesight and react the way Collazo did to it.
