I had Hatton-Collazo way wider than most 116-111 Hatton.
I remember one round which was a real 50/50 which I gave to Hatton, and you could make an argument for a 10-8 round in the last(a pretty strong argument) which would be 114-112. But I just can't see it as a Collazo win.

I suppose it would only take another of the closh-ish rounds to be given to Collazo to find a draw, but I just don't believe Collazo won 7 rounds(or more) of that fight. Hatton looked terrible and was expected to prevail easily so that may have affected some peoples scoring, that's not to say my opinion on the fight is more correct that anyone else. If anything the general consensus seems to be(and I'm mainly going from memorary) either 115-112 Hatton or 114-113 Hatton. So people with those scores would have the most claim to being 'right'.
agreed and good post mate, pretty sure from memory i scored it to Hatton by a point with the KD, didn't score the last 10-8 though i could understand if someone did, and i think there was both a close round in there that I gave to Collazo and one to Hatton which = the 2 swing rounds to me.

I had Hatton winning by a couple of rounds.
I also seem to remember that this was the opinion of the majority at the time.
Funny how this fight has been retrospectively labelled a 'robbery'.
