    They found someone who is prob as shot as hatton for him to fight

    Sounds like a good scrap style wise

    :-(

    I wish I knew what was going through a fighter like Kat's head.... I wish I could see some interviews with him or something that describe why hes still fighting.

    I just dont understand why these guys who are most likely on a clear trajectory to brain damage with almost no upside at all to compensate for it make these decisions to keep going.

    I guess I do understand.... but im sure for every fighter its different (money, pride, crowd, delusion *I can still be a champ*)

    But I just wonder what it is in this case.

    $$$... I'm glad Kats will get paid. (Or at least I hope so)

    Unfortunately most fighters dont have a business sense to keep their money making money. Thats why most fighters overstay their welcome. :-(

    Having said that, Kats has a punchers chance against Hatton.

    Hatton picked a good enough opponent to where he can guage if he continues or not.
    Hatton dominates Kats, he can convince himself he can continue.
    If he has any trouble at all, I think Hatton is smart enough to hang them up again. At least I hope so.

    A commendable choice, really. Katsidis is well-known and a good fighter. He could potentially hurt or stop a diminished Hatton. And if Hatton does win, which is the more likely outcome, then it's a very decent comeback victory. But, as I said in another thread, Katsidis could derail Hatton's comeback train before it's even left the station. Interesting fight.

    A career high payday for Katsidis

    And a decent tuneup for Hatton

    A potential war for the fans

    no he wasn't shot, he was champion, most people have realised that's a rediculous claim, hatton beat him fair and square

    Brain damage aside, if true, this should be an entertaining scrap.
