Hatton wins, but it was no Boston tea party

Ricky Hatton was crowned a two-weight world champion in Boston after battling through the toughest night of his career to beat WBA welterweight king Luis Collazo on points.

Despite flooring his New York foe with a left hand inside the opening 20 seconds, the Manchester ’Hitman’ endured a frustrating night before edging a 115-112 (twice), 114-113 verdict.
