    Who do you guys want to see Kats take on next, and who are the most logical choices?

    Keep in mind Mick is rated 15th by the IBF and the title is vacant i believe... could he get a crack at it?

    Amir Khan: Great fight IMO, both have opposing flaws and weaknesses. Khan has great power, accuracy and quite good defence. But his chin sucks, sucks real bad and he is still fairly green. Kats would likely get pummelled from the opening round but his bulldog style offensive would keep Khan on the back foot and one good hook would end it all. Khan UD or Kats mid round KO... would not be surprised to see Kats lose on cuts, Khan throws vicious jabs. My money would be on Kats to KO the china chin Khan... would be able to get inside the jab and unload. May not happen now due to Khan going to 140...
    A win here would see him go up in the IBF and WBO rankings

    Anthony Peterson: A win here would see Kat jump to number 5 with the IBF and prob get a shot at the vacant title? Peterson isnt a big KO artist and has fought hand picked opposition IMO... a good boxing but nothing overly special. From what i have seen of Peterson, Katsidis would be able to dominate him in the middle rounds where Peterson drops off and possibly KO him.

    Who else?

    Surely Valero is in the mix. The 2 winners should fight.

    Buckwheat didnt really give us a good guide to Valero.

    Amir Khan is stepping up to Jnr Welter. I think a return with Casa is on the cards...

    Anthony Peterson is 1 guy i personally would not want Katsidis to face.
    I would rather him stick with Casamayor an experienced veteran/good payday or Valero top gun/big payday....rather than Anthony Peterson young fighter untested really/smallish payday...wayy bigger risk.

    Sounds good provided Rocky changes his style because it will be the same as the first fight if he goes in hard.

    I think Rocky should just ease back a lil and take on some solid opponents not ones where he has to go life and death. Fight for a bit of money to get his future solidified.
