    Round 2

    Katsidis's work on the ropes to the body won the round for me compared to Burn's trying to box off the back foot and throwing arm punches with an occassional uppercut.

    1: 10 - 9 Kats
    2: 10 - 9 Kats

    Round 3

    Left hook, right uppercut by Burns! Good connections but he doesn't seem to want to keep it up for long. Katsidis is forcing him to fight every second, in his chest as Burns tries to escape back to the ropes. Body shots by Katsidis coming in, and Burns counters with those HEAVY left hooks and right uppercuts. Clubbing right hand across the back of the neck by Burns, but it doesn't slow Katsidis down. Straight rights to the body by Katsidis. Now overhands. Elbows sticking out to either side, Katsidis just starts to chip away at Burns' body with short powerful blows! Burns reaches over to the side and hooks Katsidis hard on the far side of the ribs with a long left hook. STIFF jab by Burns snaps Katsidis' head back in an exchange. Katsidis throws a lead right but hits arm and Burns launches off the ropes to circle left and pot shot. Long left hook to the hip by Burns, leaning over. Katsidis can't get close. Burns goes for another hook to the body, but Katsidis leaps back out of the way.

    30-27 Burns

    Another round to Burns. Katsidis needs to throw when Burns throws if he wants to win.

    29-28 Katsidis. Has him on the ropes. Good combs and pressure. Although it is close.

    Maybe the third stoppage loss of Mick's career?
