    Well not really telling anyone anything new but it's basically been made official.

    I for one can say I'm looking forward to it. Mundine finally stepping it up (I know its not Kelly Pavlik but its not Daniel Pablo Zamora Nieva or Jose Alberto Clavero either is it) and its definitely Daniel Geales hardest test. If he really does want to fight a guy like Abraham we would want to defintely get through a guy like Mundine first.

    Anthony is 33 and his brithday is May 21st, so he will enter the ring as a 34 year old. Geale is 28, probably just entering his athletic prime. Will make a prediction close to the fight.

    mundine should win by a wide UD.but im predicting an upset geale KO in round 10.call it a gut feeling call it just hate mundine.call it just want to see teke cry.but i think something out of the ordinary will happen in this fight.again i attack mundine and his choice of opponents but this is a step up and i give both credit for making this fight.

    As much as I'd love to see Geale win, I just dont think he has the power to bother Mundine.

    Mundine by UD.

    You know as well as I do that Mundine will handle Geale in similar fashion to how he's handles his past few opponents.

    However, it's a good risk/reward fight for Mundine, as I believe Geale poses not a whole lot more risk than guys like Taylor, Neivis, etc, yet Mundine will gain some sort of respect for it.

    Taylor is a washed up Welterweight crackhead, Geale is a Commenwealth gold medalist and undefeated pro. Sound very similar dont they .

    Some real smart people on here.

    Not saying they are very similar, just that I don't think Mundine will have much more of a harder time than he had with guys like Taylor, Hamden, etc.

    Geale has fought nobody yet. It's easy enough to keep your losses to 0 when you continue to fight nobodies too.

    Unlike you, I'm basing my prediction and outcome of the fight from what I've seen from both fighters, and even though Mundine seems past it a bit, he should still be too much for a novice, solid domestic fighter like Geale.

    Will be nice and interesting to see the outcome.

    I have never really googled Mundines name until now-www.muslimmundine and redneckmundine, also a wee bit interesting...was surprised that something actually came up.
