Katsidis is an absolute class act! I'm becoming quite a big fan of his.
;) Nice...Quote:

Lets hope Khan gets beat later on cuz so far results havent gone our way with Danny and now Kev getting blown away. Paulie we are counting on you !!!!
Thought he was in over his head when it was announced
didn't think it would finish as early though - had £5 on Katsidis in 10th
Would love to see him in with Khan
Fair play to katsidis, u can't help but like the lad. He's one dangerous dude
I'd pick Khan to beat Prescott if they ever fought again. He's a much better fighter now. That loss might have actually been the best thing for him.Quote:

Somehow I missed the fact that Ortiz-Campbell was on the HBO card tonight. Awesome, makes the card worth watching.
I'm a big fan of Campbell, but I think Ortiz will stop him at this point in his career.Quote:

I like it, its intriguing, where's Ortiz head at, what does Campbell have left, etc.Quote:

It's definitely an compelling fight. I'm looking forward to it.Quote:

Thiam hurt his back in rd. 2 and retired... Not much of win for Lee.
Is Paulie enough of a legend to really bring out the best in Khan?
Man CFH, was right I highly overestimated Mitchell's ability. Very impressive by Kats, he's a fighter I want to see everytime, no matter who he fights.
I said Kats would win all along and it showed, Mitchell just isn't that good. What a finish by Kats
1st part of my bet is in. I've got Katsidis and Khan to both win by KO. Lets hope Khan can make me happy.

That was a disappointment. After the Prescott performance I thought he was going to have a breakout 2010. But the way he went life and death with Carl Johansson should have shown the limits of his ability.Quote:

Maybe in hindsight his win over Prescott was a bit like Mosley's over Margarito in that flushed out the memories of past poor performances against Cotto and Mayorga, and led to false expectations in the Mayweather fight.
Also Humberto Soto is fighting tonight. Against somebody I don't know much about.
So what's next for Kats?
Soto?
JMM?
DeMarco?
Kats-Soto makes so much sense it probably won't happen. But seriously, couldn't go wrong with that fight.
As you were saying what? I said from the out Katisidis would be to much for Mitchell, so he beats Mitchell and that proves your point how exactly? Like I said Mitchell is not that good he showed me all I needed to no when he was out on his feet against British level 130lb fighter Johansson. Cant believe cos Katsidis beat Mitchell proves your point give your head a wobble son.Quote:

so your still saying you think khan would stand up to that ?
Man and boy fight if ever there was one.
I'm not surprised Mitchell lost but shocked he folded so tamely. He looked chinny. Clueless/shitting it when Kats got on the inside. Graham Earl gave him a better fight than that for fucks sake
Cant believe the Khan fight is still hours away. I'm off to get a double cheeseburger and large fries, Brb.
so was that a big fight in ozzland?
or are most of them still in bad ?
Yeah i'm disappointed. He didn't look strong or confident whatsoever. He needed to ride out the first 6 or so rounds, but he looked like folding as soon as Katsidis put it on him.Quote:

He looked a bit scared to me aswell. Noticed it when Katsidis was in the ring before the introductions. I thought he'd put up more resistance than that.Quote:

I honestly thought Mitchell would have a great chance against Khan :vd:
Having seen that it would have been Khan KO 1.
I said in the chat that during the after fight interview Mitchell reminded me of Steve Molitor in the Caballero fight. He didn't seem to have any faith in himself. Almost like he went into the ring expecting to lose.
Mitchell would get absolutely destroyed by Khan, no doubt. Even John Murray, who I'm a big fan of, he would lay a battering on Mitchell for sure. I would be over the moon to see a Murray Katsidis fight man. Thats what i'm gonna be hoping for for the next couple of years man. Its a "To Hell And Back" fight if you ever had to pick one.
He was deffo caught like a dear in the headlights tonite, he looked like he had lost it before the first bell, I just thought Kats would walk through him, people over rated his Prescott win me included at first, but in reality anyone outboxs Prescott who has half decent skills and discipline.
Warren's face was a picture aswell after the fight! Feel for Kev but I think he needed some better level of opponent his record for someone with 31 wins is worst than the likes of Hatton at the same stage and we no how bad his was.
I think the next fight should be Murray v Mitchell I said Murray would be to strong for Mitchell I deffo think so now at 135, Murray would walk through him and stop him around the 9th.
I just think Mitchell is a nice boxer with ok pop at a certain level not powerful enough or not good enough boxer at World Class level.
Right on. I think it would be a decent match-up. You know my like for Murray Skel. Murray snatches the life out of Mitchell inside 9.....Quote:

Katsidis looked very confident and rightly so. He was getting in Mitchell's face as he came into the ring, and Mitchell wouldn't lock eyes with him, similar to Danny Williams not locking eyes with Chisora. Mitchell boxed well on the outside but just couldn't cope when things got close up, and took some big shots, which we know Katsidis has. It looked like they hadn't made a plan for what he would do if he got rattled, because he was pawing at Katsidis instead of trying to clinch, and probably should have taken a knee to recover himself.
As Big H said, European level should be good for him.
You know it always seems like just when people are about to count Nate Campbell out he comes back with a win.Quote:
