    I worry about his access to world class sparring partners etc training in Thailand. Anyone know much about who he spars with? He is going to need to get some world class guys if he wants to beat Khan :good

    Nah dont think so ay,wouldnt help his style much.Katsidis gets by with skills that you cant realy teach, i think world class sparring would only shorten his career.

    Gonz sparring all those rapid slopes has improved his reflexes 100 % from what ive seen of him recently , besides who does he spar in Australia that is of similar quality to himself as in to give him a proper sparring session ?

    Imo he would be better off staying in Europe sparring the Eastern Europeans ( In Germany maybe ) or here in the UK,( Well liked here ) .
