Knockouts of the Year
Re: Knockouts of the Year
First time I've seen that, sad watching it, in his prime Katsidis would have walked through a shot like that, the whole fight would have been a mismatch. Paul Butler being able to hold his own in sparring with Katsidis before the fight was a big indicator he hasn't got it anymore, Butler's a quality fighter, but he's a super flyweight and Katsidis was a big, strong lightweight, even in sparring Katsidis should have been all over him with the weight difference.

Once the punch resistance is gone it's gone for good. It was a super shot by Coyle and so accurate but Katsidis has eaten some monster punches flush in years gone by.

Last one to add from Japan a couple of days ago.
Real shame they don't replay this in short motion sickening shot.
