The ironic thing in that article is that they are having a go at the "circus" of boxing with regards to Khoder Nasser etc etc but at the same time stating that Leapai is the number 10 heavyweight in the world.:rofl:rofl:rofl
Agree, Soliman is a clown, he is so butthurt Mundine kicked his ass, also his win over the washed up Sturm was a robbery...
they r talking about when these guys pull swifties, or make the sbw vs gurr a ppv. if they put on the legit cards then nobody will be too disappointed cause it would be good for oz boxing. its not hypocrytical at all.
That was in no way a robbery. An argument can be made Sturm deserved the verdict but it was no outlandish robbery.
I don't recall any part-time footballing boxers on any of the 3 Soliman vs Mundine undercards, so how do you deduce Soliman fought in Khoder's circus 3 times?
I was waiting for your disagreements since you always have one ill break this down for you nice and simple..Khoders circus-promotion is questioned in that article,soliman agress with this,yet fought under it 3 times,got paid by the guy 3 times,I also believe its been refered to as the mundine circus(see Taylor match) mundine is known and only known in boxing because of his RL background...Wherrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrreee in those points am I incorrect and fr you to disagree??
The article is about the SBW Botha fight - see the headline? It says "Circus gives sport a black eye as SBW bout makes Australian boxing an international laughing stock". It goes on to talk about what a joke the SBW Botha fight was and how it stained the reputation of Australian boxing. See? This content is protected As well as quoting Leapai, they quote Billy Dib and Sam Soliman, both of whom refer to the SBW Botha fight. Soliman says: "These circus fights get more publicity than me beating Felix Sturm in Germany," Soliman said, "And Felix was one of the biggest names in world boxing with something like 20 world title bouts. "People who really know boxing know that these football fights are a farce but unfortunately a lot of people get sucked in." Where does he mention Mundine? He's referring to the SBW Botha fight. You seem to have made an illogical leap of faith in connecting the 3 legit fights Soliman had against Mundine to the SBW Botha farce simply because Nasser used to manage Mundine. So either you're saying that Mundine's whole career was a circus just so you can have a go at Soliman for being a hypocrite, which would then make you a hypocrite because you're a Mundine nuthugger and reckon he's the bees knees, or you don't know what you're talking about and are just another butthurt Mundine nuthugger doing the old "Leave Brittney ALONE!!!" thing again. True story :deal
I'd need to watch it again, but I thought Sturm won, and felt it was a bit of a robbery when the decision was announced.
Sturm dies in the arse badly in the later stages, I think it was a fair enough decision, Close fight.
If an Aussie fighter gets dudded us Aussie fans are quick to complain, we should just admit it when one of our own gets a gift, no way Soliman won that fight :deal
