    Hard to expose a guy who isn't that good to begin with. Everybody knows Casamayor is basically shot at this point. How else can you explain him struggling with Santa Cruz and Katsidis?

    I like Katsidis, but he is nowhere near elite level

    He better get used to being the second coming of Arturo Gatti because that's exactly what he is

      It seems to me the dude didn't really have his heart into it tonight. Katsidis could have done much better than that. He says he is a warrior but he didn't look like it tonight, he seemed content to mail it in. Oh well, **** him, it's his health and rep on the line.

        I think that is harsh. He looked like he gave it all to me. He threw plenty of punches in the last third of the fight. He was in there against a technically better guy tonight, sometimes thats just the way it goes.

          Some people will never be satisfied until a guy dies in the ring again. Not that Katsidis was anywhere near death, but he damn sure gave it his all. His face shows that.

            i dont agree lol. Diaz was awesome landed the better shots and just quite simply was better in every single facet of the fight. there was some close rounds no doubt but i thought diaz just had the stronger hits and you have to give that boxer the edge in a close round. i had it 119-109 Diaz im proud of his performance!

              I think that anywhere between 11 rounds to 1 and 8 rounds to 4 should be considered within the reasonable range of scoring. Katsidis clearly won one round, I think the 8th, and other than that there were several close ones. I just though Michael was landing the harder shots in most of those close rounds and I gave him a few of them. No doubt Diaz clearly won the fight though.

                I agree. There are a lot of keyboard warriors on here, that's for sure.

                  anyone who gave katsidis more than 2 rounds should not concern themselves with attempting to score a fight ever again.

                      funny well like i said i thought diaz landed more hard shots in the close rounds but yea emphasis on CLOSE so i have no problem with anybody giving mike a couple more rounds than i did! Diaz really impressed me i thought he would win but i didnt think he would win so convincingly he came out with a vengeance!
