Marquez vs Katsidis To Be Enforced By The WBO

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

BoxingScene.com has learned that the WBO has informed the necessary parties that it plans to enforce the lightweight clash between full champion Juan Manuel Marquez and interim-champion Michael Katsidis. Marquez also holds the WBA's version of the lightweight title. Katsidis picked up the interim-title last weekend when he grabbed a twelve round decision over Vicente Escobedo on the Mayweather-Marquez undercard.

I can see the next headline on BoxingScene.com now if JMM gets the fight with Ricky Hatton...

"Marquez Vacates Title, Katsidis to Fight (Insert Next Mandatory Here)"

Marquez cleaned up 135. Unless he wants to face winner of Ali Funeka vs Joan Guzman. Listen, I think Marquez should take a break, he build alot of muscle, going down to 135 quickly may be alot more harmful then we think. Take it slow, go on a vacation. I don't want him to end up like Roy.

[El Jesus]

This...oddly enough, would be a very good matchup.

Good point. Maybe a stay busy fight at 140, before taking another big challenge.

This is the fight that needs to happend for both guys!!!!!

teh **** with hatton vs marquez!!!!!

[JM1]

bad matchup for katsidis. he will eat leather all night long

[syphillis]

If there's good money in this fight then good for Marquez. I think he should only fight money fight from now on. A Hatton fight would be a good one. Trilogy with Pac would be better.

Has the potential to be a decent fight.....

Katsidis isn't a lot skillwise, but he is strong and his relentless aggression may trouble Marquez early, Marquez might get pushed around a bit and take a round or two to get his rhythm. When he does though, starts finding the mark with counterattacks, keeps his distance on Katsidis (very important) he will take control, bust Katsidis' face up, and finish him off around rounds 6-8
