To what level did Anthony Mundine play Rugby? I think he was League not Union ..... or was he both?

Rugby's not a sport I follow but I was under the impression he played at a decent level.

Mundine was the highest payed player in the NRL.

However, a bunch of plastic titles do not mean shit.
His fathers career is worthy of higher respects.

Originally Klitschko was an amateur kickboxer. In 1992 he was knocked out in the final of the European Kickboxing Championships +89 kgs Light-Contact division by Pelé Reid. In 1996 he turned professional and compiled a record of 34-1 with 22 knockouts.

Dunno about being a champion, decent record though.

she's from the netherlands. she's been a very good softballer and later several times worldchampion in kickboxing and later she started boxing and i believe she won a worldtitle from the WIBF.

Mmmm I believe Mendoza debunked that knockout loss. Vitali's appendix burst just as he was hit. Doesn't count.

You'd be wrong. As I said, plenty of Muay Thai fighters (The Galaxy bros, Payakaroon, Muangsurin, etc.) have made the transition well, even becoming champions.
