ANTHONY Mundine may be a freakishly gifted fighter but the only Aussie to beat him says he has a "glass" stomach, a suspect chin and a morbid fear of being hurt.

Garth "From the Hood" Wood, the former reality TV show winner who knocked out Mundine in 2010 in one of Australian boxing's biggest upsets, said Daniel Geale could score an even more emphatic knockout in their world title fight with constant pressure at Sydney Entertainment Centre on Wednesday.

"Mundine was way more experienced than me when we fought in 2010," Wood said. "I'd only had nine fights and he'd had nearly 50, but early on I could tell he was intimidated by my power.

Quote:

"The bloke hates getting hit. He'd attack me at different times but he was scared to commit in case he copped a big one on the chin in return.
"In the fifth round, I winded him and he tried to get away, but I cracked him with an overhand right and a left hook and he was out.

Quote:

"If Geale jumps on Mundine at the opening bell and just keeps the pressure on Mundine - Jeff Fenech-style - then Mundine will go to water.

ALTogethernow · 01-25-2013, 05:45 PM

mundine got ktfo at sm, so he offered woods 100k to fight at middle the second time, so he would be weight drained and not as powerful.

he even tried to get him to fights at super welter!!!

whipsy · 01-25-2013, 06:16 PM

LOL... Mundine took many many full feldged body shots off Green and didn;t budge.... Glass stomach... that's a new one

I always wonder why Green went to the body when he fought Choc. Stupid tactic back then but maybe with the weight fluctuations 168,160,154,160 over the years and father time has taken it's toll on Anthony.

Anyone who thinks the Mundine that turned up to face Woods will be the same that turns up in this fight is deluded.

I still think Geale will win on points in a clear decision

Youre right, The best version of Mundine we have seen in years will turn up.

Its still not enough to beat Geale at this stage of his career.

punchy · 01-25-2013, 08:20 PM

Don't underestimate Mundine, I favour Geale but this is Mundine's opportunity to be a real world champ and he is a very good fighter who is going to have a real go.
You do have to like Geale though he leaves nothing in the ring after a fight and is in the prime of his career now.

roscoe · 01-25-2013, 08:30 PM

Geale isn't going to lose his belt anytime soon...........very underestimated by many....he will shine in this victory & make mandy look the B class fighter that he really is.

MidniteProwler · 01-25-2013, 08:32 PM

Geale is overrated by many...

fighta29 · 01-25-2013, 08:56 PM

Jesus. Geale doesnt want to win on a tackle count. His skills are well and truely enough.

Your full of shit, both fights were at middleweight, the first fight was meant to be SMW but mundine was fighting at the lower weight and offerd him "incentives" to fight @ middle....sound familiar

actually wood was heavier the second fight dickhead
