Has an rematch been ordered by WBC or has he got something else lined up? So many stories floating around!
from what i have read, the WBC ordered AN IMMEDIATE rematch. I dont think Mundine has any other choice but to fight the rematch or risk losing his belt if he does not comply with the orders of the WBC:deal.:deal
He'll probably bin the belt and run like he did when Geale was ordered a rematch, and we all saw what happened when he did fight Geale again :yep
It's only a silver belt, hardly worth getting all upset should they take it off him. Not only that but the WBC looks pathetic making him rematch for a silver belt, what a farce.
if it is ordered he will drop the belt, K9 is coming out for the cash on offer not a second tier belt
WBC Silver title is nothing more than interim title, so who gives a ****. It was invented, so sanction fee was increased & gave their junket boys overseas gig.
This is probably the reason for ordered rematch Scores at end of round 4: 40-36, 37-39, 39-37 = Split Mundine Scores at end of round 8: 76-76, 75-77, 77-75 = Split Draw A bit later on, I'll post scores in subsequent rounds
Round 9: 86-85, 85-86, 87-84 Round 10: 96-94, 94-96, 96-94 Round 11: 106-103, 103-106, 106-103 Final: 115-113, 113-115, 116-112 All split favouring Mundine
so its really a **** achievement of mundine winning the fight then yeah? r u saying he only beat a limited fighter?
I would have a guess and say that would be the reason for the rematch there. I don't think there's anyone outside of the two Australian judges who believes Mundine won the majority of the final four rounds. Also, when the ref missed an apparent knockdown, well I guess there's plenty of scope for a return bout. It was a good fight and I think a rematch would actually be even better.
Mundane won the the last rd no question, even the judge that had him losing the fight had him winning this rd...... However I did have it 2-2 the last 4 tho
