Katsidis. He actually moves his head a bit, has better technique, and is a lot faster. Maidana is the definition of one-dimensional.

Brawlers without really heavy hands moving up is a scary proposition. Katsidis needs to stay at 135. The last thing he needs is to fight bigger, stronger men.

That's true, and Katsidis definitely has a lot of miles on him. His chin is just going to shatter at some point. But, he does put his punches together well and I think he'd be able to hurt Maidana with his combo's. I also think his speed and defense (as mediocre as it is I still think it's better than Maidana's defense) could mean that Maidana lands very few clean shots.

Despite my misgivings? I'd watch it :)

I think it would be a helluva fight while it lasted, by i would take Maidana in this one.
Re: Maidana v Katsidis at 140..
Great fight from a neutrals perspective but I am a big Katsidis fan and don't want to see him take punishment like he has in his last two fights. Maidana by decision if it happened.
