    he is mundines matchmaker. can someone tell me some things about him? he seems to escape criticism for some of Mundines opponents.

    George is a fantastic guy, very professional and is normally more responsible for organising and running the show I think, I don't think he has much to do with matching Choc.

    just because he is a good bloke, doesn't mean he is a good matchmaker. he has been the matchmaker for all of mundines fight nights since last december. i'm sure most will agree that many undercard fights on Mundine nights have been poor.
    Khoder Nasser tends to take the blmae, but i think this guy is the root of the problem.

    all comes back on Mandy if u ask me, if he wanted bigger fights he could have got them when he had his fake title.

    hey barge arse anyone with not even the slightest clue realises that matchmakers act on behalf of the manager/promoter

    if khoder says we wants a win thats what the matchmaker must produce!

    Keep Kronkn!

    True. Mundine's cards have looked almost exactly the same in terms of quality throughout his career.

    I doubt Reno would have much say in the matter by the looks of things.

    i usually only kronk when i am sitting on the toilet, so not here thanks.

    the matchmaker delivers opponents to the manager. on many occasions, Reno has delivered absolute kronk (in other words "****") for most fights at mundine fight nights.

    It would start at Management level with a budget for the card.....any guy matching fights has a budget to work with....more money = better fighters....less money = taxi drivers.

    Replace money with coupons and I'd say you're just about spot on.
