    Here's what I think he's gonna do:

    He's gonna sit back and wait to see the outcome of the Kessler vs Calzaghe fight in the hope he may see a weakness exposed in the winner. If he sees no such weakness, he's gonna hope to see a weakness exposed in the loser.

    He will then challenge whoever's weakness he feels he can exploit.

    If no weaknesses are exposed, or he doesn't feel confident of exploiting them, he's gonna sit and wait until Green gets a title at LHW, and challenge him at SMW. However, as Green said in that article yesterday, SMW kills him now, and Mundine has said he wants to be a 3 division champ, so the opportunity is there for a rematch, but more than likely it will have to be at LHW.

    This injury doesn't really have any impact on the above, as I believe Mundine was intending to do this all along anyway - the injury just gives him something he can use as an excuse until the above happens.

    yep. even though for the fact he talks alot of crap i was shocked at how many mundine fights i went to see at a sports bar or a club during the early parts of his career and found i was the only one cheering him on.

    Deram, are you actually danish?
    I think Kessler is an excellent fighter, but you are deluded. He is not unbeatable and in fact will probably be favoured to be defeated by Calzaghe. What will he do once he has no titles? I believe he will move up to LH were his size will not be as impossing. He has done nothing in his career to date to warrant an unbeatable status. In actual fact Mundine does think he can beat Kessler. He also thinks he can beat Calzaghe and if Calzaghe happens to lose to Kessler he will probably retire or Mundine will probably look to fight him and beat him. These two are not the legends you think.

    Isnt that exactly the opposite - a good reason not to go to LHW. A boxer will take any advantage he can, and if his size gives him an advantage at SMW he's going to take it.

    The only reason to move up in weight other than to challenge for a title is because you're stuggling to make the weight or making the weight drains you too much....

    Its less far fetched than say the prospect of Green beating Mundine. At least Mundine landed on Kessler. Mundine has improved in most areas and therefore, yeah, I am sure he is a chance.

    Because Mundine thinks he can beat Kessler and Calzaghe doesn't necessarily make it true. I'm sure Mundine thought he could beat Kessler before their first fight too, at least when asked by the media.

    If Calzaghe and Kessler don't warrant their status, then I have to ask what has Mundine accomplished compared to either of these two? And the answer is a big fat NOTHING!!! Oh yeah, he accomplished the almost impossible task of getting KTFO by none other than Ottke.:rofl :rofl :rofl

    And Kessler has not improved at all since facing Mundine? I'm sorry, but it seems to me that nearly all Mundine huggers tend to think that Mundine is the only fighter who develops.:huh

    :lol:

    Have you seen Calzaghe fight?

    Have you seen Kessler fight apart from when he beat Mundine?

    :lol:
