Katsidis deserves massive respect

[MACAQUEINBLACK]

I did it first, they copy me.

oh, I know you think you're the center of the universe and all, but that pic is for burner not for you (that is unless you are burner's alt, then it is for you).

False, the opposite is true.


And, no, please understand, it's not that - I just hate to see crass unoriginality paraded shamelessly.

Don't worry, I'll just put you on ignore...I never read a post of yours that isn't completely nauseating doggerel, so it's really about time.

Well Soto probably won't even beat Antillon. And, anyways whoever wins that could be fighting Rios next.

He hasn't won a World champion because he has faced pretty tough comp and he was really close but one shot from hell that Casamayor landed ruined that.

He could face Murray next in the U.K or if GBP wants to do right for him have him face Robert Guerrero and have it on HBO. Neither are title holder but I think good comeback fights that he would/should be favored in winning.

Murray sounds good. Another UK hypejob Katsidis needs to end. After he whoops Murray he should fight for a world title. IT'S ABOUT TIME THIS MAN BECOMES WORLD CHAMPION !!

[MACAQUEINBLACK]

Oh, please let Mike fight Murray. He would CRUSH that annoying guy.

Katsidis get nothing but respect and admiration from me.

He leaves it all in the ring, showing the amount of heart that few have, inside and outside of the ring. His comments after the Mitchell fight show he has as much love for boxing that I do.

I'm a grown ass man, but if I ever see him, I'm going to give him a hug. Hopefully he keeps his head up because he has nothing to be ashamed about.

Katsidis is a warrior, he deserves loads of respect, like the other posters said, i would love to see him fight john murray

False, the opposite is true.

nope. i was first.

And, no, please understand, it's not that - I just hate to see crass unoriginality paraded shamelessly.

i was the originator.

Don't worry, I'll just put you on ignore...

thank you

Good post OP.

I agree 100%.

Not only for the way he carried on with the fight with so much honor, but for the way he fought JMM last night.

Some of those body shots JMM was landing looked massive and Katsidis took them and kept trying to win even shocking the hell out of me by landing that massive bomb to drop JMM.


The guy is everything that is right with boxing. He's got massive character, he cares about the fans and he doesn't cheat them or the sport.

Its a shame that on a night where he's fighting a living legend in one of the most anticipated fights of the year, he's making a third of what that overrated Haymon BUM Berto got to fight some nobody no-hoper on the undercard.

That is a grotesque perversion of reality and pretty much sums up why boxing is a dead sport outside of us nuts who follow it religiously.


Massive respect to Katsidis, I hope HBO continue to pick up his fights and do right by him in the future.



p.s Fuck Larry Merchant for that cheap shot at the end. You got your tears, I hope you're happy you senile old fool.

I was wondering if anyone would comment on Larry's ****** question at the end. I think it was tasteless. Yeah, he should have known better.

[buster007]

he asked the question as if there was doubt whether katsidis put in a great performance.

what a flea!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i bet every fighter on the planet who loses a fight would have loved to have tried as hard as katsidis did. knowing that they did the best they could and can be proud of their effort.

[King Ju-Ju]

katsidis comes 2 fight, cant ask 4 nothing else of the man.
