Credit goes to Katsidis, he always comes to fight and this match was no exception. He had Burns rocked a number of times but Burns showed that he can take punches from a hard hitter and still come back fighting. Anyone fighting Katsidis will have problems, mainly because of his mauling, in your face style, he really gives his opponents no room to move or set themselves.

Skys the limit for Burns right now. He has been under rated by many people, and hopefully his win over Katsidis should make people sit up and take notice. He can mix in world class there's no doubt about it. And I must say, listening to how grounded he is in his interviews I really wish him all the best, it couldn't have happened to a nicer guy. It's hard not to like him.
This win will now see Ricky Burns get the chance to face some of the best fighters in the world at his weight class. The name Marquez has been mentioned. Marquez will be one hell of a mountain to climb. Marquez's skill level is right up there with Paquiao. And even now, with Marquez being a veteran, he is still very very skilled. He still completely lives for boxing and hasn't lost much of his skill or sharpness due to always staying super disciplined. But saying that, I believe Ricky Burns could be catching Marquez at the right time, if they do end up fighting.
