    He's too wide with his feet and punches. He's always been a seek
    and destroy guy, but he at least was a little quicker and sharper
    about it than he is tonight. After 3 he looks terrible.
    Time to hang 'em up great, and you've earned it.

    your right, he should retire.


    katsidas trained & had the style of a short career fighter.

    There really was not much slickness from Mensah, imo...He didn't do anything extra-ordinary. Katsidis was just there to be hit... didn't move much, and his power was very non-existant. To sum it up he was just very ineffective. Mensah just kept throwing the left hook for half the fight and it landed almost everytime. Katsidis needs to hang them up.

    Full respect to Katsidis; but the unscrupulous bell has tolled. Stay in the game brother!:bbb
     
  8. Robert Guerrero is responsible for turning Katsidis into a little girl.

    Now...

    Show me, the way. To the next, little girl.
    Oh, don´t ask why. Oh, don´t ask why.

    yeah, i noticed the snap of his mauling punches tapered off quite a bit going into the 3rd round...

    i think he was a bit over-excited and didnt pace himself - he put out something like 140 punches on the 1st round? Mebbe he was attempting to shock & awe his opponent.

    His aggression was rarely effective vs the defense of Mensah, and mostly resulted to ineffective mauling.

    Last 1/4 of the match, he was basically arm-punching
    Its time to hang them up, or feast on C-level fighters...

    Katsidis needs to have a size edge and he needs to be able to hurt his opponent to win. He didn't have that tonite, and he lost. Mensah isn't great and he'll lose soon I'm sure. Katsidis should retire, and if he can't go back to 135 he absolutely needs to retire. His style and his inability to avoid shots could lead to a sad end for him.

    Mensah is C-Level, and he just lost to him.

    lol, be nice to him. I think Mensah deserves more credit, and i think he's a solid B fighter. He did great sitting in the pocket, shortening up his shots and countering, all the while making Katsidis an ineffective mauler...

    When he did push and create space, he markedly out-classed Katsidis in "No Man's Land"

    Maybe its not too late for him to hook up with Robert Garcia, even though it would probably mean no big money fight with Rios.
