    I'm not really that big of a fan of Camacho. Not only was he weird but he also wasn't very crowd pleasing. I enjoy slick southpaw's like Whitaker, Winky, Dawson, Calzaghe ect because they are more fun to watch for some reason. Camacho's fights didn't interest me much. Especially the ones i seen with him in against Haugen, Paz ect. I was proably distracted by those gay shorts he wears.

    Dawson is just a beast though even with his questionable chin. He can not only box but he could **** as well and really is a good situationional fighter and knows when to take risks. My family always tell me that i look like Dawson too so that probably makes me a bigger fan( no **** lol).

    What interests you in Wright? For someone that has only been a fan of boxing for 2 years, you surely appreciate the art. Most fans that are sort of new only wants to see knockouts.
    The interest in Winky is his defense. I think it is ****ing amazing watching him put his arms up and block like 6 punches in a row, none landing. The most amazing thing I have seen in boxing is in Wright-Mosley II when Mosley throws 19 unanswered punches, all in one combination, and literally 0 land. Just ****ing incredible.

    I think Lopez is my #2 (another southpaw)... that fight against Ponce had my jaw on the floor.

    I'm actually really starting to like Camacho, the more I watch. He just might be my #3 all time.

    How about that? Maybe I should change my name to slick southpaw?

      I do like Dawson! He's just not my favorite. I think Tarver is going to spark his ass though in a battle of slick southpaws.

        It would be interesting if your changed you name to that. It would match, but people may get us confused..lol

          Tarver is old, it may be time for him to past the tourch. Dawson is too young and he also fought the better opponent in their last time out so it could be a bit misleading. Woods did not test Tarver and only stared at him the whole time. He enjoyed the fight as much as we did..lol. Tarver can punch, but thats mainly the only thing he has going for him in this fight. Hes not out boxing Dawson.

            I too am dismayed by the lack of attention this fight is getting. I mean both guys have to do their preps, but neither is saying much in the press to hype the fight, and it's falling by the wayside to half a dozen non-fights. It's ridiculous the amount of attention Calzaghe and Dela Hoya get around here.

            There's no way Katsidis is gonna get a close split decision in Juan's hometown. I can see a brutal inside war with multiple knock-downs and a dramatic finale. Katsidis is gonna have to go for the knock-out in the later rounds and might just suffer the same fate he did against Casamayor. Juan's power is underrated and his accuracy is superb. Mike has incredible heart and strength and nothing is impossible for him in the ring. I've got a Row 1 ticket in section 106. Very hard to call this one, but I see a great fight and an unfair scoring card very much tilted towards Diaz. I say rematch in Brisbane, ANZ Stadium!

            (How did this end up a thread on some who-cares LHs?)

              I CANT WAIT for this WAR!!! This is what boxings all about!
              Katsidis in FOTY, Unless it gets stopped on cuts.
              I think Katsidis has the heart and the stamina to stand and trade like Campbell did with Diaz without wilting, its not the power from Diaz that gets u its the constant punching that tires u mentally and beats u down, MK can take it and he is the Harder puncher too

                Initially I had Diaz by decision but katsidis pretty weak on the inside so Iv'e changed to a TKO for Diaz.

                    It’s not too common to see such young fighters in a ‘must-win’ bout…there is a sense of urgency that’s sure to give this fight some fireworks…I’m giving the slight edge to Diaz if he can apply his gameplan and not get lured into a slugfest…he needs to be methodical, patient and consistent…if he does, he should be able to break Katsidis down for a decision or a late round stoppage…however, if he gets lured into a firefight, the harder hitting, more athletic Aussie gets the nod…should be a great scrap…thank gawd its on free cable

                      Diaz will win, it could either be by decision or TKO.

                      Katsidis seems to cut fairly easily, so it may be stopped on cuts. He has lots of heart, so, unlike Freitas, he won't give up no matter what.
