No shortage of excitement but bit lacking in quality to be FOTY for my money.
Katsidis threw a lot of punches but at one poine earl was backed up on the ropes and he was repeatedly cuffing him on the top of the head.
10/10 for excitement though.Comment

i watched that fight with my family.. they thought it was borderline dangerous for both of their healths.
i feel there is a very slim line between entertainment and danger, so im glad it was stopped before earl was knocked out cold on the canvas.
while my family thought it was brutal punishment, i felt it a privilage to be watching such a fantastic fight.Comment

I watched it with my dad and we were both wincing in that 4th round, Earl was taking so many flush shots. Found it strange his corner stopped the fight after he had just won the 5th round, should have given him the 6th. Katsidis looks like a decent prospect but his chin would definatly be a worry.Comment

Must say that the stoppage was prob the right thing. I personally don't think earl won the 5th. Katsidis had him on the ropes the whole round and was landing with a lot of clean shots. Earl was just swinging away to try to survive, and Katsidis was taking alot of it on the gloves.Comment

Hagler-Hearns was pretty one-sided too, so that shouldn't take away from this brawl being FOTY.
Katsidis' chin may not be iron, but it's better than good enough given the other shots he took flush from Earl...Comment
