    :patsch He was nothing more than a number 1 contender in the WBA imo and any sensible persons opinion. He held the bull**** regular belt and when the true wba champ retired Mundine then lost his next fight which in reality was a fight for the vacant title Ottke had.

    Mundine was never Super Champ. You can only be a Super Champ if you unify the WBA with another belt or make 10 defences ofyour WBA belt. Ottke unified the WBA and IBF he was a Superchamp not Mundine. Same as when Kessler unified the WBA and WBC and Mundine beat Soliman for the regular belt.

    Do some research yourself you silly **** - Ottke was super champ because he unified with Mitchell.

    Mundine fought Echols for the regular belt.

    When Ottke retired, the super champ status disappeared while Mundine kept the regular title.

    Mundine was never super champ, you dopey ****.

    Ottke KO'd Choc cold, doubt he would be scared to do it again :rofl

    I remember at the time my Coach cut out the front page of the paper with choc sprawled out unconcious, enlarged it and stuck it to the wall of the gym.

    Good memories
