I'm sorry, I like Katsidis, but...

[SNVDoublePunch!]

I have to say...the people who are maintaining how close the Marquez fight was...no. It really wasn't that close after the knockdown. Marquez mostly nullified Katsidis' left after that and made him rely on his far less intelligent right hand and it simply looked closer than it was if you weren't paying attention to the actual blows landed and how they landed. Marquez FAR out-landed Katsidis in flush shots and was controlling most of the fight and deserved most of the rounds. It simply wasn't that close. I'm in no way saying Katsidis didn't land some good shots after the KD, that he didn't take a round or two or that he's not still a good, top name lightweight, but I say the fight wasn't what it appeared to some as far as competitiveness.

JMM is a very technical boxer, awesome counter-puncher, he worked out kat and fought a great fight

Katsidis is the best, he put up a fight unlike AA who looked like garbage against Dirrell and Froch.

Man Kat lost every round other then the 3rd

He is a guy you just cant hate but he is not on that level

Glad it's not just me that saw it that way here.

[heat27]

you are right
JMM was winning almost every round...marquez is just that damn good

Katsidis is a good fighter and I hope he wins a world title

[JudeTheObscure]

I agree, I was caught up in thinking Marquez needed to keep his head protected just a little more... later on, I realized what looked good in Katsidis's flurries, were hitting Juan's gloves an awful lot. I like Katsidis as well, and he displayed much heart. But Marquez proved why he, at 37, is still one of the greatest active boxers alive, using science, counter-punching, and forward thinking to set traps and close the show. What a great fight!

A special shoutout should go to Kenny Bayless, who showed no hesitation to do the right thing, reminding us why he is the best in the business. Lawrence Cole could learn a thing.

Kastidis problably has the biggest heart out there, and problably trains twice as hard every fighter in the world, but its just not skillfull... has a lack of good reflexes. in the pro ranks at least.

Margarito deserved it.

[JudeTheObscure]

I agree Margarito deserved it, but not from Pac. From Cotto, yes. Margarito did NOT deserve to be beat by Pac, and do you know why? Because he didn't deserve to be in that high-profile fight in the first place, brother. Am I wrong?
