i haven't seen the fight yet, gonna watch it in a bit, but IMO Soto is looking more faded than Marquez in his last few outings, and IMO he'd beat Soto easily

I haven't been so emotionally invested in a fight in a very long time.
When Marquez went down I felt sick.

Great win by JMM. It was a great fight too!

I've always liked and admired JMM... a gentleman and a true champion. He showed a lot of grit, heart, and showed why he's an ATG. And my hat's off to Katsidis also. I knew he'd bring it, and he certainly did. No shame in losing to JMM, tho. What a frikking good fight!
On a side note, both Jason Litzau (who won me over last night with his showing vs. Caballero) and Caballero himself should stay away from JuanMa. He'll have them both for lunch.
gotta love katsidis' heart. but he is what he is, and that's a somewhat limited, poor defensive fighter. his heart reminds me of the late arturo gatti in that he also was limited as a boxer but his heart was bigger than his talent.

Huge respect to both fighters. Marquez was brilliant (52% power shots landed?!), Katsidis fought the fight of his life.
I was emotionally torn throughout - if there was ever a fight I wished there wasn't a loser that was it.

Yeah. What a strange right hook he has, that elbow lift right as it lands is protection; but talk about disperse what could be more power.
I like the way his left elbow is used to mess with Jmm right hand in close to smother and keep the distance tight for his preferred fight range. But that right hook is weird its so not in line.
Katsidis seems to be to be a fighter that one day will win the title with a shot out of nowhere and become the story of the year because of it. It would be a shame if he went throughout his career without a title. Considering thw two lightweight champions he lost to, Casamayor and Marquez, that's got to be hard to be a lightweight coming up at those times and have to fight goes guys. He never fought the paper champ he fought the guy of the division both times and came up just short. Gotta feel for the guy.
