    I'm wondering whether Diaz will knock Katsidas down in the fight

    Anyone see it happening?

    Yea I think that Diaz could get Katsidas at the "right" time without really trying, due to his high workrate

    Katsidis quitting ala Freitas/due to cuts or TKO in the later rounds.

    Diaz too disciplined and accurate for Katsidis' sloppy defense.

    How could Katsidas win? Aside from Diaz showing up with a broken arm:)

    How many times in his career has Casa been floored? Who has knocked him to the canvas? Katsidis has a good punchers chance. And if you notice when watching his fights he is pretty accurate and has a pretty high tempo style. I would rate Casa's defence way better then Diaz even in his present state, and he got hit a fair bit by Kat

    I still think Diaz should be the favourite, superior boxer and better defence.

    Youre right about Katsidas, he has a ton of energy going into a fight, however I don't think it will translate into a higher punch output than Diaz. Katsidas will surely be the hardest puncher Juan has faced so I think Juans body and chin will be put to the test...and I think he passes with flying colors
