How many rounds will it take Marquez to outclass Katsidis

By RD 5 we will know either way.

 

your probably right. JMM has to much quality.

Even at juans age...its a very tall order for katsidis

 

is this going to be a ppv fight?

 

Not long

 

I say round 4 the momentum will start showing for JMM more obviously. Round one will probably have both throwing with Katsidis making the more significant punches, round two more pressure, round three more pressure and countering, and round four marquez starts to time him and find the right distance from which to counter. By 6 it's a great fight with Katsidis trying harder and harder while Marquez matches him with combinations. By 8 Katsidis isn't looking too good, but Marquez is not fresh looking either, and around nine or ten there is enough damage on Katsidis for a KO after a wobble or a stoppage on cuts.

 

Damn I'm going for JMM too, but man I don't see him going out early. I think late rounds ala Diaz I.

 

Something like this I can see.

 

If Katsidis hasn't made his mark and at least buzzed Marquez in the first 3 rounds, then the fight is over. Katsidis is just made to order for Marquez, his best hope is marquez has slowed down and hope to impose his physicality in the first half of the fight. Don't see how Michael wins this, unless Juan Manuel is significantly passed it. The skill disparity is just to vast.

 

After round 4 if Katsidis is lucky. People are talking about JMMs age. An older more washed up Casamayor picked Katsidis apart. So age even if it shows wont really be a factor.

This has FOTY written all over it though.

 

Casamayor didn't pick him apart, he landed a lucky shot. Casamayor had a good first two rounds, then Katsidis was taking him apart until Casamayor landed that lucky punch in the tenth.

 

Floyd wasn't able to knock Marquez down, what makes
you think Katsidis will do this unbelievable thing?

 

Floyed scored 1 KD on JMM.
(I know what you mean tho.. I'm just being a *****)
