    Are you drunk?

    Katsidis is a shot fighter, shouldn't have been allowed to fight on a british card.

    No i'm not drunk. It was a good peformance for someone who isn't rated that highly for his power and for his own boxing career.

    That was a worrying knockout for Katsidis, full power shot to the temple, his body completely shut down.

    Katsidis was every bit as shot as I assumed and Coyle still looked wary before landing the bingo shot.

    Cracking shot but as Wass said that was a worrying knockout considering Michael's brain scan past hopefully he gives it up now.

    Absolutely I saw nothing but Katsidis KO'ing Coyle and Coyle was superb, finished it with a great shot. People will say Katsidis was old and shot but he's only 34, and I know everybody is different but Hopkins is 49 I believe and he's still world champ and then you have Froch who is 37 and arguably fighting the best of his career. I agree Katsidis is not at his best anymore but he's still a stylistic nightmare for Coyle I thought so I'm very impressed with that.

    Even 2 years ago that shot wouldn't have even wobbled MK

    Was nothing more than a well timed arm shot but suppose u can only beat what's infront of u

    Hopkins hasn't been in the wars that Katsidis has though that's the biggest factor in it and IMO he was on the slide after the Mitchell fight and shot after he lost to Burns.

    As the commentators said at the time it didn't go long enough for them to tell if he was shot. Was a very good punch and he was nowhere near his best, I'm not trying to claim that but its impossible to know if he was shot to pieces my friend :D

    Very true but try and make case against Froch then he's still at his best and he is 3 years older?

    It was Beachie17 who compared MK to Hopkins and Froch I was answering the exact point you just made that you can't compare the 2.
