Yes/hypothetical, but does any1 agree dat if KATSIDIS relaxed last 2 rnd wuld of won

What does you think?

Had he taken it easy like he did the last round against amonsot etc... he woud of beaten casamayor as i had him in front on points.

i am no big fan ok katsidis just my opinion though

he lacks in many areas, but still i think we would of had a new ring champion

 

No that's not guaranteed. The other judge had Kats by I think four rounds, the other by just a point and the other had it for Casa, so if Kats had relaxed in the last two rounds he still could have lost via split decission with only one judge giving it to him.

 

Anything could and did happen in that fight...

If it went to the cards and Kat fought like he did from rd 4 to 9 then yes. But if Casa threw a well timed left hook... well we can talk about it all night.

I think you're answer is, yes he had a good shot at winning. So did Casa...it was a close fight until 10th

 

if he would relax, he would probably get outpointed and lose a decision and this time its no robbery, I have casa winning that 9th round if not for the point deduction, and he was relaxed during that time

 

This guy ran across the ring as soon as the bell sounded and got KTFO.

If he would have stuck to his aggressive boxing style - he would have proabably won the fight.

Running over to Casa's Corner with Haymakers just wasn't the answer.

 

he would he had the fight in his pocket with the point deduction from case, im sure he was well ahead

 

not 100% sure but if he fought the last 3 rounds (10,11,12) not 2 eounds by the way, he could have won\

instead he got super wreckless like an idiot an got blasted

 

i think he would have. he was up by a point on my scorecard. and i think he was well on his way to winning until that shot

 

I had rocky ahead by 1 round and he was coming home with more gass in the tank so he should have won the last few rounds.

 

No way he was outclassed by Casa. He is very lacking people and yes he is the next Arturo Gatti which is good for us fans but not for him. He will always fall short against the top guys. However i will tune in to watch him from now on.

 

It was a great fight.......lots of action as always with rocky....he is my kind of fighter even with his problems and limitations.

 

I think so ... he didn't eat the left in the middle rounds anywhere as much as the first and second. I think he got some very poor corner advise as well. He was a little bit more wild in the ninth and asked his corner if it was the eleventh round.

The corner said 'keep doin' what you're doing ... go at him'? Hmm. So a slightly confused Katsidis thinks its later in the fight than it is and goes out swinging wildly in a fight he had clearly taken over.

They needed to tell him to keep going to the body and not to get wild. He'd be a happier person today if he had.

That said, with these types of fight, Katsidis's comes away as much a winner as Casamayor, if not more. He'll be offered another good fight very soon.

He'd win a rematch in my opinion as well.

 

He didnt have to relax... He had to keep doing what he was doing.
Instead he lost all respect for Casa , ran right at him , gave a more than open target ; and got knocked out.

 

Yes. No guarantee of course (a lot can happen in 2 rounds), and I don't think 'relaxed' is the right word, especially for Katsidis, but before the start of round 10 I was definitely favouring him to win it.

 

no. He likely would've lost a decision

judge: Alejandro Rochin Mapula 82-85 | judge: Marty Denkin 84-83 | judge: John Stewart 84-83

Casa was already winning on 1 scorecard. Lets assume he wins 10, 11, and 12. Then even without the 10th round knockdown its

115-109 | 113-111 | 113-111 all for Casa
