Mini-flyweight WTF?
Next will be junior mini-fly.
Collazo is a talented boxer with a stellar amateur pedigree, with only 6 pro fights he is ready to begin the takeover of the mini flyweight division, first step is facing Melvin Jerusalem, who upset a solid champion Masataka Taniguchi. This is an excellent matchup that promises to be exciting, I expect a Collazo win by UD
Colazo is a decent and talented lil fighter. This should be good and action packed.
I’m thinking Jerusalem should be favored in this one because of how he won his title, but this should be an excellent fight. I’d love for Collazo to win, however, and get to fight Erick Rosa somewhere down the line.
