    Exactly. Close fight, but Katsidis only winning 3 rounds? :lol: GTFOHWTFS.

    We probably have the hardest accent in the UK for other people to understand.Afraid we're stuck with it.

    Yep. Burns sounded weirder. Maybe it's the high-pitch voice combined with the accent.

    Burns won, but obviously not quite by the margin on the cards. At the most, 116-112 would have been fair, Katsidis lost three of the last four and with it the fight after a spirited mid-fight comeback. I wouldn't say no to a rematch.

    Most people got emotional, because the well-known and well-liked underdog on the road and down on the cards went all-out balls-to-the-wall with a big effort in the 12th round of a championship fight.

    He lost it, and I can't see it any other way. Yeah. :conf Agree to disagree. Also disagree about scoring against holding. It can be an effective strategy and is legal if not overdone.

    That doesn't mean jack ****. Katsidis is always looking like he just went through a meat grinder. He clearly beat Escobedo and had a broken jaw. Against Amonsot he had multiple cuts, etc. And I don't have a problem with Burns winning, for the record. But looking at their faces' doesn't tell the story.

    He got his face pounded in at the ropes. He was getting slapped around. I don't understand this??
