    What a tough first fight for him since the move up in weight. Katsidis is a hell of a fighter, non-stop pressure and packs a big dig.

    Ricky is one of the nicest lads in boxing and I hope he can cause the upset tonight. C'mon Ricky son!:bbb

    It should be a great fight - in fact it is an excellent card, can't wait for this now:bbb:bbb:bbb

    Im a huge Katsidis fan and i hope Michael can pull it off, but if Ricky wins a wont be too dissapointed he's a good guy. Katsidis in 6.

    Good luck to both men.

    I like Ricky Burns but I think a Katsidis win could propel him into some more big fights (Mitchell rematch, Khan, Rios etc.)

    Wouldn't mind Burns winning either though but can't see it

    Burns will get stopped tonight, but there's no shame in that. He needs a lot of luck but he is not getting any from me. Good luck Katsidis.

    Best of luck to him, but I don't see how Katsidis can't do it.

    If Marquez had to lay EVERYTHING on him to beat him and still get floored massively, I can't see how it can't happen to Burns.

    Can't wait.

    Good Luck Ricky in what promises to be a war! He'll have to dig deep to do it!

    If I was a betting man i'd be puuting my money on Kats

    I'd like Burns to win in truth, such a nice kid and IMO a nice boxer to watch against the right opponents.

    But people like Dunky are just such twats it'll be hard to read the absolute nonsense they're coming out with which ALMOST makes me want to see him lose. But that seems kinda wrong, to see Burns lose based on morons on a forum.

    So mostly I'm just hoping for a great fight and leaning towards wanting Burns to do it.

    Good luck to ricky really hope he pulls it off though i have katsidis clear fav. Bit disappointed seems to be alot of UK fans rooting for kats. if it was an english fighter and us Scots were rooting for the other guy we would be accused of being english-haters. we should be rooting for ALL UK fighters. Well apart from barlow hes just an utter ***** from what i can gather with his posts.

    Very few are "rooting" for Katsidis.

    A lot of people have said they hope Burns can win, but don't think he will

    Boxing is not about nationality.

    Has it ever crossed your mind that people just like what katsidis represents? He is a gentlemen and a ****ing warrior. He's one of my favourite fighters, thats why im picking him. Im half Scottish but i couldn't give a ****.

    Katsidis a G.
