    at the scene, it said he pulled out because of the results from a CAT scan and MRI :-(

    I really hope he's ok. I loved watching him

    Fan favorite, guy had alot of heart. Was a beast in his prime, helluva left hook! Had a good run and fought the best. Hope he gets well.

    all action fighter with heart, but he wasnt reAlly any good..

    perfect time to walk away from the sport.

    him vs filipino guy was a gruesome fight.

    Stupid "gatekeeper" statement.

    He gave his all, he owes nothing to boxing

    Mancini and Chacon were quality fighters.

    Katsidis was not.

    Mancini would have wiped his ass with Kat.

    "blood brothers" you ass. Katsidis has shown more heart and will in his career than Floyd.
    Just because he is not an elite or maybe even world class fighter doesnt mean that he is not a great fighter.

    Here's to hoping he can live a healthy and fulfilling life after boxing. Katsidis was a warrior of the highest level in the ring.
