Saturday, January 31, at 7.00pm LIVE on GEM Two-time NRL premiership winner and All Blacks superstar Sonny Bill Williams and Wallabies sensation Quade Cooper today announced that they will take part in THE FOOTY SHOW FIGHT NIGHT to be broadcast LIVE on Saturday, January 31, at 7.00pm on GEM. The Footy Show's Beau Ryan and Erin Molan will be joined ringside for the inaugural boxing extravaganza at Sydneys Allphones Arena by former IBF Bantamweight Champion, WBC Super Bantamweight Champion, WBC Featherweight Champion and Olympian Jeff Fenech; WBC Super Middleweight Champion, WBA Light Heavyweight Champion and two-time IBO Cruiserweight Champion Danny Green; and former two-time WBA Super Middleweight Champion, IBO Middleweight Champion, current WBC SWW Silver champ and former rugby league player Anthony Mundine, who will all provide expert commentary throughout the night. Other boxers on the card will include Sydney City Roosters player Willis Meehan, son of heavyweight boxing champion Kali Meehan, professional boxers Bilal Akkawy and George Kambosos Jr, and Cronulla Sharks captain Paul Gallen. All bouts will be officially sanctioned by the Combat Sports Authority of NSW.
Green, Fenech and Mundine all on the commentary team at the same time?? That's worth the watch in itself
I was thinking the exact same thing, the logistics of it would be a nightmare. Green doesn't like Fenech, or Mundine and im pretty sure Mundine dont like Fenech or Green, Fenech also wouldn't like Mundine due to the money Mundine cost him, although they may have patched that up. It will be VERY interesting. The fights will all be one sided though imo.
It will be cringe worthy with the likes of Beau Ryan and Erin Molan calling the fights as I assume they DKSAB.
The [NRL] Footy Show is the biggest cringe on TV. This will surely take cringe to a new level. It'll be impossible to fit all those egos at ringside at the same time. I'll be watching with the mute button on. At least it should give Raymond and McCullen a boost in the ratings. :yep
All you eliteists need to take a chill pill. I love this ****. This boxing card will get more people interested in boxing than 20 world titles won by Geale.
