Thread: katsidis v diaz - am i going mad?..

2008-09-06134½Juan Diaz134½33-1-0Toyota Center, Houston, Texas, United StatesLSD12

just found that on katsidis record on boxrec, i watched the whole fight but for some reason swore it was a wide UD

i remember kats trainer saying your winning or something going into the last couple rounds but he was way wrong.. or so i thought lol

any help?

It should of been a UD win for Diaz. I gave Katsidis like one round. Katsidis trainer and one of the judges smoked some crack prior to the fight. So they weren't in the right state of mind.

I heard Katsidis is lined up to face Julio Diaz next. That should be another loss for Katsidis

Katsidis just gets busted up too much...he doesn't have much pop on his punches either

cheers for the info lol, i think i gave him about 3

It should have been a UD for Diaz, but then again Campbell should have beat Diaz by UD, so I didnt feel too badly for Diaz, he still got the win. No surprise at least one judge was incompetent.

The trainer was an idiot and you could see Michael Katsidis was embarrassed by it all. It wasn't the war i was expecting, but Juan Diaz boxed nicely in/out type of style.

Although i think Michael Katsidis's advice in the corner was terrible, and he got too long to get going. I wouldn't say he is finished quite yet i just think he was up against two very good fighters, and i don't think he was disgraced in in his two losses.

I just think he is like Arturo Gatti he isn't quite at the world class level, i still think he will have some more exciting fights against the lower top 10 Lightweights. Like Julio Diaz, David Diaz, they are winnable fights for him for sure.

More like he was never that good in the first place. I mean if Graham Earl puts you on your ass you won't go far.
