good on him for having a go but JMM would most likely beat him into an early retirement.... if he was going to take this fight he would need a new trainer. Full stop.

I'm a big Katsidis fan but I wouldnt like his chances against JMM. Still got to give the credit he isnt scared to fight anyone.

his best chance would be to bum rush JMM like Pac did in their first fight, but with that said he is no Pac and cops alot of shots coming in. Kats does however have a size advantage. A mid round KO for JMM but he has taken a few more shots lately so Kats might be able to land something big at some stage. Diaz had JMM hurt at one stage and i wouldnt consider him a big puncher...

We know Katsidis is all action, and as much as I think he would lose against JMM I for one give him lots of credit for taking on the best and always aiming high. I;d rather see him lose to the best than fight mediocre opposition, provided he also knows whent o call it a day too. You never know though, he knocked Casamayor down, he could still get a few good shots in if he manages to keep his head level an not just swing in wildly.

I tend to agree

Only chance is if Kats is ultra impressive in beating chavez and JMM misses the big fight with winner of Pac v Hatton etc

I have to say as much as it pains me that Katsidis would have next to no chance against JMM, but fuck you gotta absolutely love his attitude. This guy will fight ANYBODY anytime anywhere. Mundine could certainly learn a thing or two.

After April the 4th/5th for us aussies Katsidis eyes JMM as a mandatory (apparently). Some say he needs a trainer to add to his corner in preparation for such a fight, isn't ****** Fortune in Hollywood? Wasn't he a trainer at the Wild Card Gym...just a thought.

Kats' book, not a single page, should have been 'smacked' over Mundines head 5 years ago!!!

JMM wont be fighting Katsidis.

He is after bigger money fights. Either the Pac/Hatton winner or possibly Floyd. If he can't get one of those he'd look at a rematch with Juan Diaz.

No surprise to see Nonito Donaire Snr work Kats' corner in the future. Brendan ws happy to have him in the corner and is very open to using him again.

As much as I like rocky and his fighting the best mindset another loss wont do him any favors.

He needs to target guys he has a better shot a beating and JMM is not one of them.

I hope rocky has been working on his defence as his attack and heart are fine....he needs to eat a bit less punches if he is to stay in boxing at this level.

kat is badly managed if bank balances have anything to do with boxing. last thing kat needs is another flogging. let the poor bugger earn some dollars first eh?

word is, he needs some.

Kats is making 500k plus purses fighting on HBO. Plus mainevent ppv percentages in Oz and ppv in Greece.

He's making plenty.

Listening to Brendan in his corner in the Diaz fight where only he & Glenn Hamada thought he was winning, might be testament to your proposal Sally ;)
