now fighting next month for interim WBO title....what is earl like? is he a boxer or a banger? who should be favoured going into this one?
also on the same card is audley harrisson ans amir kahn...should be a good show

Earl is a boxer, he will be using alot of movement around the ring , coming in and out trying to catch Katsidis.
Earl defeated a very good boxer/puncher in Yuri Romanov a couple of fights ago. Although he did have some shaky moments in that fight and also against Ramirez in his last one.

Having watched Katsidis a couple of times, i'd expect him to come out very fast trying for the KO, and it could happen. But i think Earl will be willing to give away the first couple of rounds waiting for the storm to calm down a bit. Earl will then be looking to get his boxing together.

Katsidis will start a favourite i think, and a fear he may have a bit to much power and strength for Earl.
