    :lol:

    I hope Katsidis wins this one. Casamayor is past his best so I think Kat has a good chance of beating him. Should be a good fight though. :yep

    This fight is only 2 hours drive for me, im still debating about going or not.

    the cheapest ticket is $50 but its not a title fight and I fear that Casamayor will make this a boring ass fight.

    If Casamayor stands and fights Katsidis the fight will end quickly for him. That said, I anticipate he will fight on the outside and run (Santa Cruz) and use his speed and experience to avoid being overpowered and to penetrate Kat's suspect defence. That said, i've never seen such a ferocious style and constant attack mentality as shown by Katsidis and IMO this will prove to much for the ageing Casa.

    As long as Kat's cut prone face doesn't fall apart, he should do this by late stoppage.

    The fight is for the Ring Magazine and WBO Interim Lightweight Championships of the World...

    Yeah mate Casa might run but i think Kat should find him sooner or later and make it a fight!

    I'm picking Katsidis here because I like him to win . . . but don't count "the old dirty Casa" folks.

    Im really hoping for a Katsidas win, but hes very limited and i think Casamayor will use that to his advantage especially with this huge underdog status. I guess i may go in that i want to see Casamayor get KTFO live.

    Not impressed at this stage by Katsidis.

    Katsidis hit Graham Earl with a barrage of shots without being able to finish him off (compare Amir Khan knocking Earl lala with one punch next fight) so I'm yet to be convinced by his power.

    In the middle of all that Earl had Katsidis badly hurt with one punch. And Graham Earl is not a big puncher. So I have questions over Katsidis' chin.
