    Michael Katsidis first 3 fights were scheduled for 10,12 and 8 rounds in that order. The first two were for Ausie domestic titles.

    Pretty cool name:good

    His management team obviously didn't like him much, sticking him in with a 32-0 Ray Robinson on his debut:hey

    I think that he was probably in the army and boxed an exhibition with Robinson

    His mates in the army would have taken the mick out of him constantly, having that name:rofl

    Without doubt. An Irish staff sergeant who worked for me went by the name of "Spanner" O'Toole (truly)......I asked him one day why they called him Spanner and by way of explanation he got his **** out, it explained everything :admin
