    Bobfather says this might be next for Rios. Damn, I worry for Kats medically with his latest string of bouts but HOLY **** CAN YOU SAY FIGHT OF THE YEAR?

    Rios will dominate Katsidis, but I wouldnt be surprised if Katsidis left hook made Rios visit the canvas. MK might be limited, but that left hook has power all the way to ww. Would be fun while it lasted. Clash of personalities too. Humble nice guy vs a loudmouth. Will be electrifying while it lasts.

    Rios by way of brutal beating.

    Kats should retire while hes still has all his marbles.

    This is going to be a classic war!!

    Katsidis is tougher and way more experienced than Antillon.

    Katsidis would get his ass kicked for 3 fairly exciting rounds.

    Maidana/Matthysse vs. Rios. Now that would be good.

    Katsidis is NOT that hard of a puncher. That's why he has all the heart of an Arturo Gatti, but none of the titles. He simply can't end a fight with one dynamite blast.

    Anyway, this sounds like a damn good fight. Though I would probably favor Rios. Kats looks like he lost a step between the JMM and Guerrero losses.

    Katsidis' brain is going to be mush if he keeps taking fights like this

    This is why I was calling for Katsidis's retirement. He is now going to be cycled through to fighters to feast on his name.

    Retire Katsidis.... hes already proved hes one of the biggest warriors in the sport, and has reached a place in the sport that 90% of everyone who laces up a glove will never reach. He gave it his all and has nothing more to prove. He can leave the sport with his chin held high.

    Hes got money, his health, hes young, hes known, lots of fun to have in this world.

    I favor Rios, but Katsidis can make it interesting with the right strategy.

    This is NOT a classic war in the making. This is NOT prime Katsidis. Its going to be one sided and very short.

    He'll be iced inside one or two rounds. Although an exciting fight while it lasts...one we all know the conclusion to that we wouldn't need to see.

    I'd much prefer Rios to unify against Vasquez
