I am not quite getting the Katsidis hate here? Is it because he beat the crap out of Earl and Mitchell? Burns was too slick for him and in every fight Katsidis has lost he has shown a lot of heart. He doesn't have the skill to match the A level fighters, (although he was just seconds away from ending the Marquez career) He does have entertainment value and has performed extremely well with limited ability. If he loses this next fight he should give it away.
Dude his bro had died only a few months before that fight, he was pretty emotional. He didnt take time off to really get it out of his system, he fought JMM like a month after his bro died and then continued training and fought 6 months after that. So maybe you should cut him a break for that.Quote:

People have trouble performing at work after a close relative dies....imagine being in front of thousands of people and having to face a guy who wants to beat the shit out of u while dealing with the death of your brother. Just a bit harsh to judge someones actions when they are at such a low point in their life.Quote:

Katsidis is nothing more than a thug with no class.
Me either. He went head to head against Casamayor and Marquez and knocked each for a loop before being stopped himself.Quote:

The guy is an absolute warrior and obviously has more character than guys on the internet who talk shit about him on message boards.
I love Katsidis to bits...but after going 1-4 in his last 5 (and 0-2 in his last 2, and 5-6 in his last 11) there is NO WAY he should be walking into any sort of a title fight. Golden Boy Promotions have just signed Perez into a "long term deal" so there is no way they think Katsidis could win, he's about to be used by GBP.
What if my brother just died as well, and I were just typing shit about random boxers in order to cheer myself up? I have way more character than Katsidis you insensitive jerk!!!;DQuote:

WBO WBA WBC IBF which one is the best of the bunch answer none of them, Diamond Silver Gold is this belt thing getting out of hand total utter confusion.
Senseless ranking's you lose you get a title shot off a other governing body, :confused: hows about a Grey belt's just for losers .;D
