Juan Diaz vs Michael Katsidas....the "other" battle. Who wins?

Both fighters are throw backs. how many boxers in the modern era take on great challenges after a defeat?

 

Who here sees who going forward?

 

All due respect, but thats like asking during a war if any bullets are going to be fired

Both will be going forward. Diaz will try a smother kat and kat will want his distance to land his bombs

 

I pick Kats on the basis that Juan can be beaten in his own game.

 

It's not like asking if any bullets'll be fired in a war at all. Obviously they are both come-forward fighters, but it doesn't mean they'll be walking into grapples all evening. Someone will back up at some stage. I think Kat will back Juan up, but Juan is skilled enough so who knows

 

katsidis is tough and i don't think he'll quit just like how diaz made freitas and julio diaz quit. He's likely to be stop due to cuts. He cuts like a baby, even czar amonsot was giving him a hard time

 

both rely heavily on offense. none of them are anyting like sweet pea

 

Diaz by late round TKO.

 

I've seen very few do a better job of standing in the center of the ring and sluggin' it out with someone. Gotta go with The Baby Bull.

 

Diaz will win this... there's no doubt in my mind. I see a late TKO win, either by cuts or a corner stoppage.

 

Diaz KO

 

It's a complete mismatch. Katsidis is going to get massacred.. Diaz KO in the mid-rounds.

It won't even be enjoyable to watch because of how one sided it will be. It's not like a Soto-Karass/Estrada fight where the fighters are on the same level and will be going toe to toe the entire fight, exchanging punches and connecting at around the same rate. It's a fight between a kamikaze fighter with a shaky chin and horrible skin who's barely B- level and a B+ pressure fighter who throws punches nonstop and has an iron chin. Anyone who thinks Katsidis has any kind of chance is either Australian, Greek, or nuts.
