Yes the mad as a cut snake Leo Sayer lookalike is good value but Aussie Dave is well past this level of opponent.
He'll probably be the last fight on the non-PPV version of the show in order to pull in random casual viewers. They've used him in that role before. If he's based in Australia & is going to be for the foreseeable future, they ought to develop him properly by feeding him decent opposition. We look like we've lost our Tokyo Olympic medalist back to the other version of the sport so this bloke can fill that role. Nyika has the physical strength & punching power to perform in the professional ranks so hopefully we see him developed in that capacity & brought in behind Jai Opetaia.
Agreed and believe that David wanted a better opponent and not someone that he has previously beaten. Wonder who does the match-making over the No Limit?
Jayde Mitchell sucks he only gets a go on TV because he is butt buddies with Ben Damon. Murdock, Tapia and Hardman would give him an absolute flogging.
THE BOXING SCOREBOARD - AUSTRALIA 13 v THE WORLD 6 Tough weekend for Australian boxing but both guys gave it their all. That's three in a row for The World with The World also heavily favoured in the next three that are scheduled. Could get interesting.

Great respect for the Mexican but he didn't win that fight. The Boxing Scoreboard OFFICIALLY recognizes STEVIE SPARK as the LEGITIMATE winner of the fight & The Boxing Scoreboard NEVER lies. Jason Moloney MD12 Vicent Astrolabio (Philippines) Wins WBO Bantamweight title THE WORLD 6 Emanuel Navarete (Mexico) TKO 9 Liam Wilson (27 second delay after Wilson scored KD. Wilson made to weigh-in nearly a full weight division below the house fighter). For WBO Jr Lightweight title. Charly Suarez (Philippines) TKO 12 Paul Fleming (Fleming dropped & stopped in the last minute of a 12-round fight while ahead on the scorecards.

Tyson Fury is in Melbourne for the Parker Django fight No Limit must think that should justify $60ppv for a few sound bites from Fury LOL. @WhataRock I can't believe Freddy just doesn't start Nico at 6 and dump Luai it seems the Dally M player of the year isn't good enough to get a start for NSW
I'm glad he got picked because he deserved to be somewhere in the team. Not sure where they will use him. I sort of understand the reasoning of picking halves that play at club level together. QLD won all those series from roughly 2009-2016 with the spine of Melbourne leading the way. The only way they were able to build their chemistry together is because the Storm cheated the salary cap all those years. And the NRL turned a blind eye because they wanted a foothold in Melbourne. Really Queensland should have their shields for those years stripped and the state should be banished from the Commonwealth.
Yeah the Queenslanders are putrid cheats. I reckon Hynes and Cleary would be a good combo the same way JT and Cronk were for QLD despite playing for separate clubs. I think Latrell will be our most dangerous weapon. Smart by the dirty cane toads to go with Walsh at the back he is in top form.
Feel sorry for Edwards. He has been awesome this year. Teddy has been pretty quiet but looked decent against you guys. And of course he is Freddy's mate. Gotta say that was the best game of the round. I don't usually cheer on the Dragons but I was out of my seat when they crossed for that last try.
