I wonder if Danny Green would have wanted a rematch had he won. Has anybody noticed everytime Anthony Mundine fights and beats these guys they all scream for a rematch. They make more excuses than a horse trainer. Hopefully his fight coming up in April will be his last in oz. I for one am sick of listening to these guys challenging just to get their name in the paper. Hey fellas like him or not he is the man.
Every fighter I know who has fought him has nothing but respect and acknowledgement for the opportunity / payday he has provided them. :deal Without Choc (and I'm not nuthugging), a lot of boxers in this country would be skint. :deal Even Lovemore's getting in on the act and prepared to come up from Welterweight for an opportunity, that say's everything. When you fight Mundine, you get paid, it's as simple as that. :deal In saying that, I still love winding my good mate Ash about his un-conditional love for the Man. One thing about Ash, he sticks solid! :good P.S: Your right about racehorse trainers. Been around them my whole life - more excuses than fat sheila's at Weight Watchers!
green offered RJJ substantially more than that without a title. Imagine the turnaround of fans if mundine actually did something, I'd like to like him. No really i would. kinda.
Agree and Green did very well getting RJJ :good However RJJ is 10 times the identity in Australia as Sturm is....only die hard aussie fans would know who Sturm is :deal And like Flamengo keeps telling me too many titles make the average sports fan confused so they wont know if this is a big fight or not. The $1 mill was just the front door fee for Sturm....the PPV deal was the killer
I don't agree mate...he wants it in AUST...he could not guarantee what Sturm wanted....if Mundine was game to fight Kessler he will fight Sturm....granted not in Germany....but here....**** yeah He paid kessler less than than half of what Sturm is asking....fact is mate Sturm dont want to leave home so he priced himself out of the fight :deal
It would be interesting to see a comparison of all the Aussie boxers who were active in the last 5 years and their level of competition compared to Mundine's since his loss to Kessler. Off the top of my head: Paul Briggs - fought Adamek twice Michael Katsidis - fought Ganoy, Casamayor, Diaz Vic Darchinian - fought Donaire, Burgos, Donaire, Mijares, Arce, Agbeko Sam Soliman - fought Wright, Bika Bika - fought Beyer, Calzaghe, Bute, Codrington Somehow this excuse that "big fights are hard to make" that keeps getting trundled out by the Mundine nuthuggers doesn't quite ring true when you look at what other Aussie boxers have managed to do in the same period :hey You'll notice that they then fall back on the good old "the purse split wasn't worth it" excuse when this is pointed out, or that Mundine represented too much risk for not enough reward, etc. Thereafter, it's a game of semantics and bull**** claims but as per usual, all hot air. Like I said, at least Green was proven to be genuinely going after Hopkins and Tarver, confirmed by those guys with their own words in the media, and the fighters listed above have actually fought the big names in their divisions. Meanwhile, everyone that Mundine claims is ducking him barely knows who he is. Food for thought :hey
Don't you ever run out of the desire to keep defending this *****? He's a ****ing moneygrubbing coward.
Excellent opening address from Mr InBruMan representing the people, and now for rebuttal from the accussed's representative Mr Ashley Nuthugger QC... "We want the truth..."
