***I'M AMAZED no one is talking about this fight yet!!!! (POLL)***

[PRIDE OF BOSTON]

If Katsidis doesn't get cut then he'll win, after the Campbell fight I've lost a bit of faith in Diaz

Mmmm... I can't see why... He fought with heart... He went into survival mode late but he was still trying.

Not many guys would have stayed in the pocket like that taking a beating...

If anything he earned alot of respect from me.

This is a dangerous comback fight... The most dangerous comeback fight I can remember.

...Yet another reason to respect them both even more.

I was having my tea so my response was a bit short so I'll expand.

Diaz fought well and hung in and you have to respect him for that, he could have took a knee towards the end and you'd think no less of him.

Before that fight I thought Diaz would reign for a long time unbeaten, and I liked his style. I know every boxer can have a off day I just think that with Katsidis power Diaz could be in trouble with his walk forward style. The same can be said the other way and I don't see it going the distance.

Its just one of them things, I thought Diaz would have beaten Campbell comfortably and a big win against Katsidis would restore my faith in him.

I still think Diaz is the biggest potential in the 135 division

[leftylee]

I'm picking Diaz by points. Katsidis is a little one dimesional. He has power and is exciting but that's it. I'd love Katsidis to win though.

[OumaFan]

Nate's a lot more skilled and a lot craftier than Kats though, he did a lot of slick smart things in the Diaz fight, it wasn't just that he was bigger and stronger. With Kats it will be just that, that he walks through Diaz' stuff and Diaz can't take the punishment.

[Fenster]

This is obviously gonna be a cracking punch-up.

Katsidis is a 3/1 underdog. I think he has a much better chance than that - so i pick him

[No Contest]

I think the "Baby Bull" will win this on a cut stoppage to be exact. Diaz' volume = bad matchup for Kats face. He should look worse than his last 2 fights, Casamayor wasn't overly active like Diaz and look how bad his face was. I think this is gonna be like rock-em sock-em robots, should be very entertaining, maybe Kats has the power to stop Diaz, I don't know. He didnt look too bad against Casa, a skilled counterpuncher, so he may be a better boxer than he lets on.

Casamayor wasn't overly active, but his punches are harder and much more accurate than Juan can throw.

I think Diaz will hand Katsidis his ass. Katsidis doesn't impress me at all. He looked ok against Casamayor but he's as done as Castillo and Gatti combined.

Casa almost lost because he's 50% of the fighter he once was.

Diaz got beaten badly by Campbell but he'll be training 100% for this one and I predict he will completely and utterly annihilate Katsidis inside 7 rounds.

Look for dazzling handspeed, ferocious multipunch combinations and Katsidis getting hit with absolutely everything,

This will be like Pacquiao Diaz imo

[RozzySean]

I voted for Kats by KO. The fight will get stopped late by the corner or the ref. Katsidis has flat out better power than Diaz. He's a vicious body puncher, and he has a workrate to match Diaz.

IMHO, Diaz is incredibly overrated. He's a good fighter, but he's not the future of the division. He's a one trick pony. Diaz is basically Ricky Hatton, but slower, less powerful, and without the great foot work. He does have a decent jab when he decides to use it. He's worked his ass off to get to his point. I respect the guy a ton and you couldn't ask for more humble intelligent guy to represent the sport, but I think he's gone about as far as he can go.

[TitoFan]

I voted Kats by TKO. He'll throw everything but the kitchen sink at Diaz (and then some) and I think Diaz will eventually wilt. I love Katsidis fights..... he's a wild man.

[holmcall]

Think cuts!

[Spicoli]

By all accounts,If you have a heart condition....do not watch this fight.No way that this is not a fast paced ,intense fight.I can easily see both busted up but I'm going with Katsidis by decision.My big question is how exactly do both come back from devastating defeats.Contrary to the split dec by the judges,I had Campbell up by a few and he was inflicting some serious damage down the stretch on Diaz.Katsidis allowed himself to take things for granted against a extremely gifted much proven Grey beard in Casa and payed the big price in what,for all intents and purposes, was a one punch KO

You can say,The first to back up losses ?Lose's to Campbell and Casa respectively are no disgrace and I see both refining and coming in at top form.Diaz can cut Kats up and has shown a tremendous work rate lately but I wonder seriously if he can back Katsidis up & hurt him.I believe Kats is overly stronger,better body hitter but Should Diaz bring a 2nd gear combined with volume and mobile boxing,He can out hustle Kats all night.

[rjj tszyu]

I voted Diaz Decision but I think he could also win by a late KO. I don't see Katsidis winning this but for those of you who can bet 365 are offering 3/1 for a katsidis win of any kind!

[WelshDevilRob]

Gonna be a tough fight and for me Diaz is the more solid, so will prevail and batter Katsidis into submission by the midway point.

Credit to both for taking this fight after a loss.

[Wacko3205]

Had to vote Diaz by KO/TKO.

I like Katsidis...I think he's great for the fans...but Diaz will outbox him & more than likely punish him with his speed & activity.

We shall see.
