Of course Katsidis wins an inside fight, but the problem is. Khan is not going to let it be an inside fight...
    Who has Khan fought that has been good enough or strong enough to get inside him and do damage Oisin ***an, Salita,Kotelnik ? No one. Malignaggi exposed Khan's lack of infighting skills on the few times he forced Khan back but did not have the power to capitalise it. Life on the outside is going to be much tougher than on the inside for Katsidis. Khan has no leverage up close,Katsidis has the skills and mindset to take the fight to close quarters and Khan's footwork is not good enough to keep him out of trouble.

      gomez was the closest to infighting, but his chin let him down in that fight.

      The gomez fight reminded me of ali vs frazier 1

        Khan still ****ed him up badly in that fight...even on the inside. Gomez had his moments, but Khan beat the brakes off him.

            Would prefer to see a prescott vindication fight but this is equally as exciting. Could be a risky fight for khan. Katsidis is so powerful, take his last fight vs. mitchell...he made him look like a boy in there. Intimidating as hell with the intro aswell. Khan wins by decision/cuts or gets KO'd. Hard one to call, I hope khan is ready for someone like Kat.

              I think prescott is limited compare to katsidis.

                Roach will work on Khans inside game dont worry about that. I think this is the best 'keep busy' fight out there tbh, before the maidana fight in november. It is much harder than the prescott fight and it makes more FINANCIAL sense in the UK. Prescott has already lost twice since he fought khan and isn't as big as katsidis is now.

                  Pointless fight...katsidis is getting ***ed! He should not agree!! Khan needs to stop running from the top 140 pounders and put that china to the test! Khan is being too protected now, it makes me sick!

                      yes the inside game is key to this fight.
