    Haha only a easy million???

    You do know that would probably be triple any payday Foreman has previously earnt...

    And other then diehard fight fans in oz Foreman is totally unknown.

    And Mundine himself aint much of a drawcard these days...

    If Mundines serious about winning titles then he needs to go over to europe play second fiddle in the pay packet department and fight Sturm...

    Plain and simple...

    If hes got the belt then there is a big scope for marketing a title fight I imagine kessler, echols etc were not "well known"

    Why go to germany to take less pay and get robbed on the cards? This would see his stock fall unnecessarily in the boxing world and diminish his earning power.

    You fail to realise back when Mundine was fighting the likes of Echols and Kessler he was still taken somewhat seriously and had the attention of not just boxing purists but the general public.....That has since dissapeared through his own doings...

    And to get greatness you actually have to step outside your comfort zone and take risks...Mundine claims to be the man so going to Germany or any where else in to face the likes of sturm for a chance of glory should be worth it....

    Has has fought in the Europe before....And we know he didnt get robbed that time around..

    I dont really like Mundine as a person but im a boxing fan...I try not to let that cloud my judgement when choosing to write on certain topics regarding him....

    But lets all be honest....He aint going to lure the likes of Sturm or Foreman etc here.Its also very unlikely that he genuinely even wants to face these calibre of fighters...

    We mustnt forget this Man has been fighting for sometime now, and has gone from fighting for a world title overseas before he had even 15fights to fighting on self promoted shows against men that dont present much reward for defeating...

    People bag on the likes of Evander Holyfield and Roy Jones jr for not going away when there time in the sun is up....But atleast they pressed and pressed for that time and even though it aint possible they still strive for everlasting glory that is only creating taking on the best within the squared circle...

    Something no1 can EVER say about Anthony Mundine.....

    I know what your saying but you forget the power of hate :lol:

    Mundine v Geale was the second highest PPV in aussie history :deal

    Mundien v Foreman will be number 1 not because Foreman is well know but because people want to see Mundine step and get smashed against a world class fighter.

    I still stick by $1,000,000 for Foreman easy.....15,000 through the gate and 100,000 PPV easy maybe 200,000.

    You are mistaken if you think Mundine dont get good numbers from his crap fights....he will get great numbers for a big fight

    What a conundrum for Mundine......

    To good for the locals and to good for the foriegners abroad.

    He needs to earn respect internationally and showcase himself o/s, who gives a rats arse about what he will earn.
    Even if he took a fight on an undercard like...mmmm....Katsidis or Vic has done many times his stock would rise exponentially.

    Problem is he hasn't got the balls full stop.
    Mundine nuthuggers are apologists for mediocrity...it doesn't wash any more.

    Ok, Ok, you get my vote for biggest nuthugger but theres only so much I can take. On a good night, when the moon is full, divide your ppv number by ten and your still too high.

    Enough now, hush child.

    Mundine needs a passport to leave the country......Khoder has it locked away under his bed for safe keeping.

    Are you saying Mundine-Foreman will do 100,000?

    Rethink your 43rd drink.

    Maybe you should try reading my post first. At no time did I mention Geale-Mundine, just your take on the projected numbers of Mundine-Foreman.

    Its all there, concealed amongst the words and sentences.
