Struggling to see how Burns beats Katsidis. He doesn't have the power to fend him off for 12 rounds. No way will Burns last the distance, let along win a decision as J_C has predicted.

Everyone said the same when he fought Martinez and Burns did a great job on him. Burns is quite a bit bigger than Katsidis especially with Kat's crouching style, I give him every chance. Its a bit of a pick em but with home advantage I think Burns might nick it. Also i think Katsidis is a bit shop worn now from repeated batterings although no one can deny his heart.

I think Burns's career peaked with the Martinez fight and, being honest, he was overrated anyway. Katsidis lost, albeit badly, to JMM and Guerrero. Burns would suffer exactly the same outcome in the those fights. Katsidis also hits hell of a lot harder and faster than Martinez. As soon as Katsidis decides to let his hands go, which will be from the first bell as we all know, Burns is gonna be overwhelmed. Honestly can't see this lasting five rounds, let alone twelve. It is in no way a pick em fight.
Thats fair enough mate, its your take on it and im not gona disagree. Would it surprise me if Burns suffered a fate like Mitchell? No. But neither would I be surprised if Burns went the distance and boxed well enough to get a decision especially with the home advantage (we already saw what that can do for you in the Mcloskey-Prescott fight).
The way youre talking the bookies will price this up with Katsidis as a massive 1/8 favourite or something and it wont be anything like that price i'm sure. Be interesting to see what the bookies odds are when they are released

This is funny - Morrison added: “There are a few things that are subject to change but at the moment we are pleased that Ricky is going back to the Kelvin Hall.”
Opponent change?
In the past few weeks, consider boxing was in the off season in Britain, Burns was fighting Broner and now Katsidis, Mitchell was fighting Rios, and then Katsidis, and then Rios, the Cleverly-Bellew winner is fighting Hopkins and DeGale is fighting Pavlik.
Usual PR shite... be surprised if one happens.
