Collazo retains strawweight top spot after flyweight success

Oscar Collazo has climbed the divisional ladder without losing his grip at the bottom.

The Puerto Rican fighter moved up two weight classes to compete at flyweight and won, all while maintaining his top ranking at strawweight, according to ESPN's latest divisional rankings. Collazo's ability to operate successfully in both divisions puts him in rare company among the sport's smallest fighters.

Collazo's dual-division dominance reshapes strawweight picture

The flyweight campaign marks an ambitious step for Collazo, who now holds dual claims in ESPN's pound-for-pound calculations. Few fighters manage the jump from 105 pounds to 112 without sacrificing form, but Collazo's recent performance suggests he carries his power and speed across the weight gap.

His strawweight supremacy remains intact despite the upward move, a reflection of his continued dominance in a division where depth remains thin. Whether Collazo commits to flyweight long-term or defends his strawweight position will shape the next cycle of rankings.

ESPN's next divisional update is expected in early February, with Collazo's strawweight and flyweight positions both under watch.
