Great news :bbb Can't wait to see it, Katsidis really deserves this fight he has earned it and it's nice to see another fight being made between the No.1 and No.2 in a Division. And we will also get to see Khan-Maidana/Ortiz which are both better then Khan-Marquez.
It'll be a totally class fight!...definitely not going the distance. Who thinks Khan will fight Maidana?
Katsidis can win this fight by KO...:yep JMM is a great fighter but right now this is the fight for Katsidis to seize the moment...:good
Some RUMOURS (!) that Martinez/Williams II will be on Nov 20 and in the article I posted a link to Schaefer says HBO have mentioned Nov 27 for JMM/Kats. Now how amazing a two weeks would that be if it all comes off?! Like most on here I am expecting a Marquez stoppage but one thing's for sure - it will be a right war!
Great news for both parties JMM vs Katisdis will be war, i think both can stop each other, great fight. Also I have been wanting Khan to face a puncher for his next fight, Khan i think himself wants to face Maidana, lets get it on :good
Best news of the day. Hopefully Khan v Maidana happens too and we have two less "interm" champions. I'm picking Katsidis to pull of an upset. He was chompin at the bit for this fight and I don't think an old JMM will be powerful enough to repel him. FOTY candidate before they even step in the ring!
That would be awesome!! I'm really glad that Juan Manuel has stopped chasing the Pacquiao rainbow, it means with these favorable match-ups for him at 135 we'll get to see more of him...Had he fought Pacquaio for a third time at a higher weight he would finally understand what it means to face a veteran weighing up with real muscle as he would've realised he should have never chased Pacquiao to that scary weight class; dead man walking for small Mexican frames I'm afraid! Btw Ishy, You're upto date on these things, what's the 411 on Joan "can't keep my fingers outta of fridge" Guzman? has he pissed off to many people? What a shame and waste of talent as Guzman mixed a rock stance like a young Eubank and that toilet squat like a young Sweet Pea (well kind of, lol).
Good news. I really didn't want to see Amir Khan sink to his knees and look to the heavens after beating up a lightweight.
JMM's not getting KO'ed. If Pac couldn't do it when he got knocked down 3 times Katsidis isnt going to do it either. JMM's going to tear his head off and stop him via TKO inside of 6 rounds in a brawl. The one thing JMM is good against is come forward sluggers. He'll counter the snot out of Katsidis.
Yep, Kats is a warrior and determined little fighter, but Marquez is in a different league, he will see his shots coming as though they've got a second class postage stamp on them and proceed to counter him like crazy. Note: Please don't take any of my picks for Gospel because I'm batting like 200 in my last 10 picks...yeah I'm the guy who had Dawson in a landslide, Antwone Smith by doctor's stoppage (lmao) etc.
I'm having a shocker this year as well, even went for Cintron to stop Williams :huh didn't expect Kermit to jump through the ropes on that one though
You know what i keep telling myself? Hey don't worry Slip...Teddy Atlas never gets picks right but guess what he's coughed more boxing then you. lol Anyway, you're a cool guy who knows your boxing LHL and I owe my James Toney interview-watching solely to you my friend, lol. When James finally hangs up the gloves in like 2015 (LOL), I will have to do like 5 threads, back to back, strictly on our library of Toney post-fight interviews.
