    It really is !

    His opponent in November, i have NEVER heard of and i think i am a fairly hardcore boxing fan, not the most hardcore, but i follow most fights each weekend.

    Are there still that many Mundine nuthuggers in OZ who would buy anything he is in ?

    Hell i would prefer to see Mundine do a reinvention of ;Foreman fights five; and take on

    Darryl Somers
    Matthew Newton
    random Home and away dick
    random Neighbours dick
    Sam Newman

    That would be more entertaining !

    Rabchenko is ranked top 5 in every org bar WBO(where he's 14th). 2nd in the WBC.

    http://wbcboxing.com/wbceng/ratings?layout=edit&id=146

    top 5 IBF and WBA.

    Their has been some farcical Mundine fights on PPV(Green too)but this guy is decent. Seen his fights with Ryan Rhodes and Adriano Nichi he can bang Hatton rates him highly. Mundine will likely lose this fight IMO. There has been far worse Mundine PPV's than this. Gunnah whatshisname,Darmel Castillo,Falliga,Medley,Jerez etc.
    People obviously still buy them so of course they will still keep putting them on.

    BJ Flores was similarly ranked by the various orgs to Rabchenko when he fought Green.

    you drop out of the rankings after 12 months of inactivity don't you? I think he was only ranked top 5 WBO top 15 WBC and Cruiserweight is a weak division.

    I think you will find Flores was top 5 WBO, WBA, WBC and about 10 IBF at the time he fought Green.

    Well I used to post at another forum not sure if the link will work and he was only ranked by 2. 4th WBO,14th WBC.

    http://australianboxingforum.yuku.com/topic/6653/Green-vs-BJ-Flores-Nov-17?page=2#.VBKLdMIcSM8

    But reading BOMBER's assessment of him and the fact it was Dannyweight put me off the fight. The 1st page of that thread is funny.

    Nothing will ever top John Hopoate v Bob Mirovic as a PPV. Two bums fighting on ppv. Incredible.

    It's not the nuthuggers who pay the ppviews it's the haters who can't resist the temptation of watching in case he gets Ottked again.

    You could always watch a replay of Danny Green vs Paul Briggs

    I wonder if TS started a thread on Green-Santiago which was advertised as a LHW bout,he was ranked 150+ and forced to come in at 185 being PPV? If they can make money on it and people buy them they will keep selling them. With Pac-Algieri,Hopkins-Kovalev on the same month if they are PPV I probably won't get this(unless bored because league season is over and their isSFA good on TV on a Wednesday night).

    I unfortunately paid for the Green v Drews retirement fund fight in which Drews received his superannuation entitlements before turning 65yrs. He ran the whole fight.

    I was sick and ended up watching it on mega upload or rapidshare. I was a Green fan back then. What about the Yellow Machine saying''I have been an interim champion before well you can stick that up your a**e'' then counting it as a real title when abusing the nurse saying ''listen love Im a 3 time world champion''.
    You went and bought up Greeny kel.:nono

    No that would be Russell Crowe by far. Mick Molloy would be up there but is he as famous as Greeny?:think
