Katsidis is a great brawler much better than antillon. He has only lost to the best. But given a fight to all except guerrero who is huge for lighweight.
He's fight bravely against the best, and has taken a lot of punishment, and that's not including his other fights.
I still need to watch his last fight, but I don't expect a move up in weight to rejuvenate his career. He's limited as it is and with all that mileage, he'd have to hope his natural size and strength advantage could overwhelm Soto, who'd be too small for 140.
But I agree, he's better than Antillon.
The question you have to ask is.
Is Katsidis a better more powerful fighter than Antillion?
I believe that most people here said they thought Kats was bigger and stronger.
Now Soto went life and death with Antillion.
Can he handle Katsidis?
Katsidis is a true warrior but then again thats the problem no defense. His face after almost every fight I think he would lose a close fight but an entertaining one.
Michael Katsidis vs Humberto Soto @140
Both men are at 140 now.
I just watched Katsidis-Lozada and Kats looked physically solid at 140.
Both fought easy fights to tune-up at 140.
How do they fair vs each other.
Side note: In my head I see Soto as much taller guy. But apparently Soto is only a half an inch taller.
