I agree.

I think people were misled by the HBO crew, especially Max Kellerman, into believing Diaz won a lopsided victory. I wish there was a version of the fight I could watch with an Australian broadcast crew.

Kellerman sounded like he really hates Katsidis for some reason, and Papa is always biased in favor of the American fighter.

Diaz did win the fight, but I scored it closer, 115-113. By times Katsidis was controlling the pace of the fight and landing more punches.

You are insane. That fight was horrifically boring simply for the fact that Diaz was SOOO much better than Katsidis. The huge difference in class was apparent from round 1

This is a complete cop-out from some one who does not know anything about boxing. I watched it (and many others as well) streaming online through spanish broadcasters and had it on mute and still only gave Kat 2 rounds. The streaming vid had a chat for all of the people watching it(people from all over the world) and everyone was in agreement that Kat got his ass handed to him. It had nothing to do with Kellerman and everything to do with Katsidis.

I agree with Katsidis got beat but I have no problem with any card that gave him between 2 and 4 rounds. People are overdoing how one-sided the fight was a little I think.

The fight was a lot closer thna you guys scored it.

I gave round 1 to Katsidis. And i slipped in round 4.

Yea it was weird sitting ringside. It appeared that Kat did win rd 1. Also rds 8 to 12 were pretty even. I went home and watched it on tv, And now I know why people say its different being there compared to watching it on tv. Because on tv Daz won easily, But at the fight I wasn't sure who won it. Also I noticed that people were real quiet after the fight was over as if they weren't sure who had won. I was 2 feet away from Oscar at one point, And I told him thanks for bringing the fight to Houston. He said, "no problem man hopefully we can do it again". I also told Rual Marquez good luck with AA, he said "thanks". Mario lopez is gay and I refused talking to him beacuse he is gay, And is overrated as an actor. Foreman and Holyfield were there, But they were minding there own buisness and weren't as freindly with the fans. LL is a ****ing beast. Max Kellerman looks gayer in person. Overall I had a good time.

Wow, you thought the fight was boring?

Anyone who thought that the fight was close has to be outta there minds. This fight was not close and Diaz won the first round no doubt. I only give Kat 2 rounds in the fight nothing more. I can't believe people say what they saw in a close fight? Pure bull****. Kat has no technical skill. Kat never had a game plan. Kat's face was busted up. That was terrible judging on the part of the official judges!!!!!

it was horrifically one-sided to the point it WAS boring. my gf fell asleep, and she is a boxing fan who knows more than a lot of folks on here. I was super hyped for it and felt let down, but it was because Diaz was so much better than this guy. I knew Katsidis was an okay fighter at best, but he didn't seem to be trying last night until the last four rounds.

I said way before this fight that it was a smart move by Diaz because it was an easy fight and a good pay day. Turned out to be true

This also proves how shot Casamayor is

[MaFu MoFo]

i gave kat 4 rounds ...he lost but i blame it on his corner

Totally agreed.

[DiegoFuego]

I don't think Katsidis' mom would have given him four rounds. You guys are ****ing blind until you tell me which 4 he won. Then I'll go back, watch them again, come back on here, and tell you that you're blind again
