Was I was watching Michael Katsidis fight, I was wondering do most boxers in Australia fight this way or not? I was very impressed with Katsidis.

id disagree with infestacide a bit.. i think aussie boxers tend to be real fighters. mundine.. dibb and a few others are the exception but you only have to watch a domestic card to see that we produce and appreciate warriors over technicians. stay tuned for briggs v garay.. hopefully itll be another spectacle.

Aussie fighters often come like Katsidis , we are generally not real stylistly talented but tough walkup fighters , Rocky Katsidis is good mix of both , from Jeff Harding and his Andries wars , to Jeff Fenech and his phone booth 12rds with Azumah Nelson in Vegas , some lesser known Aus champs that were two fisted warriors Lester Ellis and Barry Michaels , most Aus fighters that get to top level have a real burning desire to win ,, its not a popular mainstream sport here and we only have about 150 registered boxers total so we do quite well considering that we are drawing from an entire population of less than NY city .

its ok, dont listen to this dude his always wrong. i agree to a point, but not many aussies cant take a punch as good as katsidis and not many of them have the will of katsidis. sure we have a few stand up fighters, but the new breed are boxers not brawlers. Mundine,kickett,medley,geale, pittman etc... i wouldnt call them brawlers or "in your face" fighters.

he asked if most.. not if the new breed. ****.

lol then i will continue and say that MOST aussie boxers would get dropped where kat keeps coming :P
