So..Do you guys think Kats is off the map now?

No...because he lost to an elite fighter, supposedly.

He is also an all-action bang-for-buck fighter, so he will always be in demand, especially being so popular and having deadlined his own show on HBO.

 

:huh Why would you hope that? Katsidis is one of the most exciting fighters to watch right now. Nobody really rates him that high (before or after last night), but he is must see tv.

 

Totally agree! Plus can you imagine Katsidis v Diaz?

It would be a total war, plus a t.v. broadcasting dream!

He is still top 10.

 

I think we'll get to enjoy seeing for a couple of years, with the kind of talent there is at lightweight i doubt it he'll suceed there. He'll also probably be involve in a war with a B- level fighter at best and make a trilogy and a fight of a year out of it(ala gatti-ward)

 

considering their styles, i'd still like to see diaz vs. katsidis!!!! i'd pay for that ****!!!

 

you'll hear about him again. give him two or three fights and he'll be good to go

 

No... he made a stupid mistake, loading his shots early round 10. He was successfully applying pressure, was taking away Casamayor's confidence, had adjusted to the straight left...

I mean, at that rate he was inflicting more punishment and more and more controlling the fight.

Why he decided to get careless I have no clue. He had Casamayor exactly where he wanted him!

I think Katsidis wins a rematch. And based on the quality of the fight and the back and forth action, they should give him one.

 

Yes because he got exposed for being reckless and no thinking ... this is not only a sport based on physical stength but its also a thinking man game.

He got out smarted by the smarter Casamayor -- he under estimated Casa and thats one think you shouldn't do as a fight is under estimate anyone.

I don't see him beating any of the elite or any of the other contenders.

He can't box ... he's a nervous reck in the ring ... and he's one dimensional.

He can't adjust --

I see Zahir Raheem beating him ... what a hype job!!

 

I disagree, he did adjust after the first 2-3 rounds. He wasn't careless before the 10th.

However round 10 is a mystery to me.

 

no sir, vazquez-marquez III.

 

Good old Zahir, he cured my insomnia last year.:smoke

 

I havent seen the fight yet but if it was so good let them get it on again:bbb

 

The same result will happen ... Katsidis hasn't fought anyone and Casamayor has been in the ring with every kind of fighter.

your avitar sucks KCD

 

he was winning on 2 of the scorecards going into the tenth after being down 3 points after the first. so he pretty much won 7 of 9 rounds. he got careless and fought stupid in the 10th. that is how he is built and the same thing might happen again. but if he had boxed the last couple of rounds he most likely would have won the fight. i see no reason why a rematch canèt happen ASAP.
