Thread: Katsidis too relaxed?

Aussie gladiator Michael Katsidis is so chillaxed he is in the audience watching the undercard to his own fight with Ricky Burns. While I am sure he is not the first boxer to do so do you think he is underestimating Burns? Or is it just a distraction technique to pass time and prevent overthinking his fight gameplan? Whatever it is I hope Ricky beats him.

I didn't mean watching the undercard to his fight with Ricky Burns, as in sitting side by side with his opponent, rather watching the undercard before his fight with Burns. (:

That just shows how cool and confident a fighter is before a fight.. Should he stay in the locker room in cold sweat and walk around back and forth?

IT's good that he's relaxed.

Yeah kats always has come off as a relaxed dude except that little bit before the guererro fight, hope its not done for kats and he gets the win

Only saw the last round, can someone give me a rundown of the fight? Commentators think Burns won.

Burns deffo won i had him winning at least 8 rounds probably 9

Was a decent fight and burns showed good skills and defense thruout. The rounds kats won he won on workrate, wasn't able to land much cleanly and didn't get into the fight till the fourth or fifth round. Burns definitely deserved the nod but the cards were a tad bit wide for me. Not a knock on burns but kats' wars I think have caught up to him somewhat, he certainly isn't shot, but at times his punches just didn't seem to have any snap on em.

Well so much for that...

At first I thought that was a bad stoppage, but Smith seemed pretty wobbly.

He was wobbly getting up from the first one and wouldn't have been surprised if ref stopped it there, he wasn't gettin a chance to get his legs back. Nice post fight interview by grooves and his corner, not talking world level already and still talking about development instead of just rushing into a world title. Looking forward to tonights fights, todays been a decent day so far.

Made up burns won , didn't see the fight , he must have proved tonight he's a force at 135. Im glad I got my prediction wrong

It was a hometown decision.

Wasnae even the home country , let alone Burn's home town.

Burns completely dominated the fight, his body shots looked to really discourage kat and by the middle rounds kat had no sting in his punches left, great performance by burns
