    Really sad the guy is an absolute warrior could imagine him becoming a good training he would be a hard taskmaster.

    To be fair, the guy he fought was from Accra , Ghana and had never been stopped.

    He is done

    If I was Fwank I would go out of my way to make the Mitchell 2 fight so he can avenge his only loss, I'm sure Kats will take the cash and although it wont be a great win mitchell would take the win over a guy who Kod him in 3.

    i liked kats though, he gave everything he had but was a class below world level. To get where he did says alot about his heart and character

    he might aswell call it a day now i think the Marquez fight was his last stand and it took everything out of him he could still potentially be dangerous but i dont think hed want t step down a level which he would have to as i dont think hed get many fights at world level after a 6th loss.

    The Marquez and Guerrero fights took a lot out of him, he was a complete spent force in the Burns fight, could see it from the opening few seconds.

    Good fighter though, true warrior.

    Now all of a sudden the Burns victory isnt as good, sigh! oh but Rios is the daddy, oh but he got schooled at the weekend and given another win despite not making weight AGAIN, wow how things change.

    Katsidis is a great fighter but looked very very one dimensional at the weekend and so easy to hit, I was actually getting a bit worried at one point as Mensah was just loading them up and couldnt miss. He didnt seem focused on defending much and just tried to blast Mensah out but couldnt and didnt change or wasnt able to.

    Time to retire before he gets badly beaten.

    Love the guy, one of my fav ever fighters, and I go back a fair bit. Time to retire, as his body has let him down before his heart ever would.

    I'd love to see him back in with Mitchell before he retires.

    Train hard, fight hard, fight the best, have gloves will travel...

    If everyone was like Katsidis, boxing would be a better sport.
