    Was down at Scarborough (as I know Green's crew put him and the undercard up down there) with the Mrs this arvo hoping to see Green and actually bumped into Griffin! Was not as big as what he appears in pics etc I have seen so I am even more confident now that Green will do a god job on him!

    Had a brief chat to Griffin and wished him all the best, he did seem pretty confident so could be a good one!

    Neer seen Griffin fight so I can't make an educated assessment.

    Can only hope that Greeny does the business! :good

    Mundine looks tiny in person. But he eats like a horse. I stalk him all the time around the Boxa Cafe, but I cant work up the courage to ask him for his number. Its not so much Mundine I fear as that gaybikey guy that keeps sniffing around him.
    Anyway, back to reality. Its not size that will trouble Green as we know. It is skill. If this guy has any, whcih I doubt, it will be close. Still think Green will win a 10 rounder though.

    Im confident in a late green tko, however does anyone think that griffin may be able to dance around green for 12 rds to get a decision? Like he said, he's younger, never been ko'd according to boxrec and apparently an ex-nfl player? I'm sure green can deliver the ko we speak of though, best of luck.

    Also the Sundaqy Telegraph article about Green today made me cry for the poor guy. It hurts him so much to have lost his career defining fight. Mundine has already done all that going back to basics and keeping it old school stuff.
    And he says he is not the type for an entourage and bling. Thats because noone is interested enough to join the entourage and he cant afford bling. It stings him that Mundine is more entertaining, a better showman, and a better boxer.

    I do reckon Green will have a tough fight though I havent seen very much of Griffin. Just one of his fights on the T.V show and some clips.

    If Griffin's chin holds up it is going to be a good tussle for Green as I dont think he will bully this guy around. But it may crumble I dont really know.

    Looking forward to it, I like the fights where your not to sure whats going to happen till the night but Im not expecting an easy night for Green.

    I went to the Boxa Cafe once. I couldn't believe it was next door to the Ritz Hotel, Greens chums.

    The kid that serves coffee there doesn't know how to make a good latte. I also wasn't much of a fan of the mugs. don't think i'll go back.

    He has a site Sai, otisgriffin.com i think.
    He has a couple of fights on there but I found them hard to watch because it would take a couple mins to load up for aout 15 secs of footage and my internet isnt slow.
