    Pathetic bout to headline a PPV, no buts about it.

    A hell of a good undercard will be needed to get any boxing fans to watch this garbage...which i doubt as i expect Boxa to fill it with Peter "Put Me To Sleep" Mitrevski, Peter "Put Me To Sleep 2" Kazzi & Fred "I Only Fight Bums" Nagi.

    Sad sad time for Australian boxing.

    I don't bag aussie boxing, I bag promoters and media for putting emphasis on boxer like Mundine, Dibb and Green (although I like Green pre cruiser weight).

    Was at Kats / Micthell & Marq.

    Was at Geales/Kaz and Mundine missed the one in between. I even watch whatever they but on Fox Sports if they didn't change the day day every few months, and I usually always at my local or star city for PPV's.

    The only times I miss is if I have to work or are too drunk from Sat, thenI just DL it.

    But do you agree with me or not.

    P.S My fav of all time is Pernell Whitaker and he should of won against ODLH. By 2 rounds at least.

    My main gripe is that they are not selling the point of undercards, infact if there was a way to watch/pay for undercards but not main event I would.

    Even a co-main event with an up and comer going for Commonwealth or Asian Pacific title I could handle. But SBW with 2 fights headlining I poo-poo it.

    So mate,,you're interpretation of Oz boxing is for the undercard to fund their own fights & pump the show up, for a casual sportsman to fight a casual sportsman, who share nothing of the PPV proceeds with the real fighters. ?:huh

    I think I need some time out :tired

    No not at all Rodin.

    My point is if people dont like the card dont pay for it....however calls to boycott the fight are a bit harsh as a few good aussie fighters will be on the card.

    I dont think in any way it should be a PPV but I can see from a business point that the cross over crowd may just pay for this.

    Nice one newbie.....I mean getting to those fights....when you say "at" do you mean "at" the pub watching it....or you were you "at" the fight in the crowd?
