Diaz-Katsidis officially signed and set

[OumaFan]

Diaz-Katsidis Update!
The lightweight world title showdown between WBA/IBF/WBO lightweight champion Juan Diaz and WBO interim champion Michael Katsidis is on after Diaz signed on to fight Katsidis in February. Katsidis signed the contract last week. If Diaz had failed to sign, the WBO would have crowned Katsidis the outright title holder. Katsidis’ manager and trainer Brendon Smith said Katsidis is currently in the United States preparing for his clash with Diaz. The fight is expected to land on HBO February 10 at a site to be determined.


Should be fun

I'll go with Diaz late TKO, maybe cuts

CC for the heads up, thanks. Been wanting this one to happen, should be alot of fun. I agree, late TKO, probably due to cuts. Maybe UD.

CC back. Yeah I'm pretty confident Diaz will win. Anything can happen but Diaz won't have to look for Katsidis and should break him down IMO. I worry about Diaz getting caught in between like an 8 punch combo or something but he should beat Katsidis.

Yeah, there is some chance Kats could hurt Diaz at times, but that out of this world workrate, accurate punching and surprisingly fast hands will wear Kats down in the end, and he will be cut. How bad I guess we'll see; but I could see it stopping the fight. It won't be a lazy mans fight though for sure, and I can't freakin' wait. And it'll be right before the Taylor/Pavlik fight, to help amp me up a bit

Another great fight to look forward to, what happened to boxing being dead Yea right. I'll take diaz by his usual mid to late stoppage.

[Kev]

Great matchup Diaz will batter Katsidis.

Great matchup Diaz will batter Katsidis.

Agreed this will be a slaughter im not overly excited like the rest. Even though Diaz is one of my favorite fighters at the moment, this is just going to be one sided beating.

[leftylee]

If Graham Earl can drop Katsidis on his pants imagine what Juan Diaz will do.

[Fenster]

Great match-up. Can't be anything but a cracker.

I'll take Katsidis for the upset..

..not really.

Diaz will stop him after Katsidis has shot his bolt.

[bzkfn]

Diaz will stop him. I have alot of respect for Katsidis, and I think he's a great fighter but he'll lose this one.

[killersheep]
