Katsidis vs Mitchell is on Main Event

[ColWallace]

I can't stand that top rank version we get of fights...with mario lopez doing interviews later on..
its crap.
I wish we can get HBO!
But I do love sheridan.
i think he is the best commentator of boxing .

Maybe I'm being a bit harsh on Colonel Bob. He seems like a cool guy and obviously loves the sport deeply and keeps abreast of what's happening around the world. Sometimes he just rambles on and on and forgets there's a bloody fight happening. "It's a war!"

It ain't exactly a meeting of minds, is it, when Mario Lopez interviews The Pacman?

Tought fight for Katsidis. From what I've seen of Mitchell, he's a good quick boxer with nice defense. Mitchell will have a major hometown advantage as well.

In order to win, Katsidis will have to do what he does best, cut off the ring and pressure Mitchell and try and break him down. There's no reason he can't win, but I do favour Mitchell slightly.

War Katsidis!

Whilst technically Mitchell is the better fighter I'm taking Katsidis on this one, and have already put money down.

Katsidis via KO.

WHY?

- Katsidis will cut the ring off
- Land heavy shots to Mitchell's body, (left Hook)
- IMO has improved his defence
- Will be the better man if both fighters want to stand and exchange.
- Australian Warrior

WAR KATSIDIS!!!!!

I admire your confidence Sine, however I'm not so sure. I might stay on the sidelines for this one, but I hope you're right!

The home advantage plays a major role in it. Mitchell is Frank Warren's fighter. Katsidis is also known for his somewhat leaky defense and tendency to get cut.

I'm sure Frank Warren will land more telling blows than Mitchel will.
