If Khan isnt careful Katsidis could stop him.

I still don't like a Khan fight for Mick, I would much rather see Kat get his shot at JMM. He has worked hard for it, he deserves it.

i agree......and stylistically it is a better matchup.........volume + pressure vs counter puncher....and we all know JMM can **** aswell........

[PittyPat]

we all know JMM can **** aswell

Khan would deserve a lot more credit for beating Kats than Marquez, though (had that fight have gone ahead). At least Kats is fully capable and comfortable fighting at 140, whereas Marquez hasn't even looked good above 130.

Ofcourse Im assuming he has some pop at 140.

Katsidas is one of the stoutest 135lbr's I have seen. That said he will have to fight as smart as he possibly can since Kahn is so quick and Kat likes to eat punches like samiches.

[Earl-Hickey]

Not what you said prior to the Mitchell fight.


Also, Khan was a moron and you wanted him knocked out. Now, since a fortnight ago, you're all about the Khan Kause.




Damn flip-floppers.

I thought Katsidis was past it, and I overrated Mitchell.

Also, Khan was winding me up with his actions, he now seems to want to test himself against the best.

I don't pretend to be some sort of saint, i have opinions, sometimes they are right, sometimes they are wrong.

honestly i disagree with that......i thought he looked strong and effective at 142 in the Floyd fight......i think he can be very effective at 140 limit....but no higher.......the PBF fight was a bit of an optical illusion IMO....he didn't look effective because of Floyd's speed......the faster counter puncher will always beat the slower one provided their ring IQ's are in a similar range......Floyd's speed and IQ > JMM.......this made the gap in class look enormous.......

I thought he looked very flustered against Casamayor and Diaz (his lone fights at 135), and obviously with Mayweather he couldn't get within range at all and looked kinda... fat and slow.

Khan also has lots of range and Roach has made it his mission to get him to use it, so he'd be poppin' Marquez all night long - and wouldn't have to worry about such tremendous pressure as Kats would bring.

In the upcoming Diaz rematch, Marquez needs to prove to the world he's still relevant. If he looks sub-standard again (which he did for 8 rounds), then it may be time to start writing him off in general.

Yea I think Katsidis has a good shot at beating Khan. Like others were saying come fight night Katsidis will probably weigh more than Khan. Don't forget it wasn't that long ago that Khan moved up from 135 his self. Khan's best win is his last one. Katsidis also has the way better resume and is more experienced, and is just a bad dude period. It could possibly be Khan's toughest test yet.

a fight btw Khan and JMM is a toss up IMHO....... Khan might pull it out because he has a jab and speed.....but JMM can adjust very well, and we know Khan doesn't like pressure and can't take it to the chin........
