    Well IMO Geale won the first fight so I can't count that as a great win for mandy..........Soliman fights yeah I'll grant the 2nd fight as that was a great stoppage win for mandy but the other two fights were like watching two monkeys throwing straw at one another........and Oz if you don't think mandy v Echols was a big fight at that time of his career then it is you who shows you no nothing my friend.......seriously think about it before you start dissing people.

    Echols had lost 2 fights in the previous 7 years, both were to the one of the best middles of the modern era.
    From memory, most experts predicted mundine to last less than 3 rounds.

    Yeah but he got shot in the lead up to the fight.

    The bullet caused nerve damage and his record since then is bad. Not Mundines fault but thats why many people don't rate the Echols win.

    I agree fellas but i'm trying to find mandys biggest fights that he actually won so it doesn't seem that I'm bias towards Geale who I know will wipe the floor with him next Wed night.........Echols biggest claim to fame was having two foul filled fights with Bhop & the being shot.......but for general promoting it was a big fight at the time for mandy & the general public of Oz........thats all I'm saying.

    Looking back retrospectively is never an accurate thing.

    * Echols fight at the time - Mundine expected to lose by KO
    * Soliman 2 - Mundine was expected to lose although a 50/50 fight by bookies
    * Thornberry was a slight favourite at the time and had recently gone 12 rds with Calzaghe.
    * Siaca was expected to be a close fight
    * Kessler was expected to KO Mundine
    * Danny Green was expected to beat Mundine and he started favourite

    As you can see Mundine won 4 out of 6 fights that he was expected to lose or 50/50 fights.

    Soliman was favourite? That sounds a bit odd. Not even sure Thornberry was, but they are both credible wins.
