    Micheal Katsidis will be coming back on january 31st in Cebu City in the Phillipines against tough argentitnian Angel Hugo Ramirez.Should be a win for Kats.Can't say I know much of Ramirez(who lost one to Graham Earl) but has never been stopped.

    Its not even supporting another fight this is strange cant see it being televised hope it will though kats fights are always good hope he gets back in the title mix soon.

    Hopefully katsidis comes out strong of this one to become a contender again. Hes a very exciting fighter, most exciting since Gatti. Trilogy with someone please Micheal.

    I never heard of ramirez but i know who katsidis is. He comes to fight all the time. He reminds me of arturo gatti. I would love to see katsidis fight edwin valero next year :cool:

    I'm Filipino yet I have absolutely no idea who the **** this guy is, so on that basis I cannot for the life of me understand why they are feeding him to someone like Katsidis. Either the guy's handlers have extremely high hopes on him or they really hate him... I'm guessing the latter

    Maybe they're testing him to see if how he could do against a fighter like katsidis who is a top contender at lightweight.

    Maybe its because Katsidis has a close rapport with a lot of Filipino fighters.

    He was in the corner of the Philippine team during the so called World cup of boxing against Mexico and it seems that a lot of Filipinos like the guy after his hard earned win vs. Amonsot.
