Collins was coached by his father Billy Collins Sr. On the other hand Luis Resto was a light punch hitter and often described as journeyman.
Billy Collins Jr. vs Luis Resto fight went to the full 10 rounds in the ring. As per the reports, in between the rounds 21-year old Collins told his father that he was getting the feel that Luis hitting with a brick. Collins Jr. said to his father, “it felt like he was hitting me with a brick”.
This was not wrong assumption from Billy Collins as Resto’s manager Panama Lewis removed some of the padding from Resto’s glove. He just wanted to gave advantage to Luis over favorite Billy Collins Jr. This helped 28-year old to win the fight but Collins Jr. didn’t loss only match but also lost the vision to see things.
