Comments Thread For: Katsidis Demands The Marquez-Diaz Winner, Not Khan

[The Negro]

Good on him for not giving in to what Golden boy probably want him to do.

Khan should be fighting proven 140 pounders, not guys moving up in weight. There is plenty of good fights for him at 140 without having to look for smaller fighters to come up and fight him.

Marquez-Katsidis would be a great fight. I'd give Katsidis a good chance at winning too.

Katsidis needs to STFU!!!

Exactly what has Katsidis done to deserve a shot at the winner of Marquez-Diaz II? JMM KO'd both of the fighters who beat Katsidis. And Diaz was one of those KO victins who holds a clear-cut victory over this overhype cat. Katsidis needs to do more before demanding a title shot. Beat Ali Funeka. Or maybe beat one of the cats coming up from 130. But going over to England and KOing what amounted to a prospect doesn't mean he deserves to be demanding a title shot.

The more I think about Marquez/Diaz, the more I think its a 50/50 fight. Their first fight was dead-even until Diaz got KTFO. Would be something if Katsidis and Diaz faced off again.

You know what bro,I agree with u.The first i heard about the rematch
i thought marquez was gonna take em out easy.But after time and
seeing the first fight,It's gonna be close tough fight.But i hope marquez
wins,I wanna see him fight katsidis.katsidis deserves it.

You're using triangle theories? Marquez/Katsidis is a fan friendly fight

[medium-deek]

While Khan is improving, Katsidis is improving still. They may fight each other down the road, I just think its smart to not take the fight just yet. If Khan builds his name up a bit then the fight would make even more sense.

that is a great gif you have of Katidis jumping up and down.

But what about triangle theories? Casamayor and Diaz beat Katsidis, so Kats automatically would lose to Marquez.

And forget the fact that some fighters can turn their whole careers around be improving with each fight.

Juan Diaz shook him up. Yes, Marquez won that fight by knocking Diaz out but don't pretend it was an easy fight for him.

marquez fought a ****** fight trying to mkae waves. if he fought his normal style, the fight wouldve been a lot easier for him.

Easy fight for Marquez the first time and it will be even easier the second time.

You just don't understand what you were watching.

I agree with Michael Katsidis. Khan potentially facing Katsidis will be one of the greatest mismatches in recent history and in the Junior welterweight division.

Khan stops him easily. He is just too big, fast, strong and powerful for the much smaller and easier to find Katsidis, who was knock down three times, on his way to a TKO loss by the very light hitting Joel Casamayor. Also, the very same Katsidis who was easily out pointed by Juan Diaz.

Khan should face a much stiffer challenger like Marcos Maidana instead for tuneup for Timothy Bradley. Someone who is a natural Junior welterweight with some size and a puncher's chance.
