"fighting" Mike looked great against escebedo.....but i have a feeling paulie has the legs to get on his horse and out-class kasidis, yes out-class and own kasidis in a lopsided decison....117-111, or 118-110...at a bigger weight class then 135...
I didn't see this guy Katsidis against Diaz but if this guy fights Paulie the same way as he did tonight Paulie can't win. He seems durable, and was impressing the commentators defensively. Besides, he's just a bull that keeps going and I feel he's much better as a chaser than Diaz. Paulie would lose... I'm a Paulie fan too.
i have a feeling katsidis looks like a amateur against paulie, katsisdis come forward style as ususal
Paulie has no power to keep him off. Like the commentators were saying, Katsidis is skilled in his form, he's not just a rought and tumble guy like Hatton. Plus, we all know what happened when Paulie got in there with Hatton.
Based on what, beating Juan Diaz 7 rounds to 5 at 138.5? I can definetely see Paulie winning, but I also have a hard time seeing how he is going to create the distance to continue pounding his jab because Katsidis was up in the face of Escobedo all night even though Escobedo is tall and a former Olympian.
The thing is. I find him tougher than Diaz and with better footwork than Diaz. I also think Paulie will have trouble keeping him off while Kat seems to be more durable.
escobedo busted him up. mk's power is not that great. he's just a bully. HBO is trying to sell him. watch the fights with your eyes, not your ears
