is mundine past his peak. is he getting too old

Yeah I think he has peaked and will not get any better, I disagree with this be as good he was capable, he reach the top level of the 168 divsion and was competive but not dominite, at the highest level like Kessler and calzaghe he was not good enough, the level down he was more than competive he beat most of them. Mundine had a good career and can be proud of what he done and I think he has one or 2 good preformence in him and at 160 I think he could beat everbody except AA and Pavlik in the next 2 years.

 

Did he ever have a peak?

 

Probably seen the best of his talent but as for performances that is to determined.

I think the only fighters he struggles against in middleweight is Taylor and Pavlik.

 

yes. he is past his peak.

 

Not yet, the next 12-18 months are set to define his career.

 

he said that after soliman 2. but nothing was defined in 2 years after that.

 

Yes we have seen his best, very good but a notch or two down from elite.

 

I hear what you are saying, however he did have his bicep tear and eye injury which had stalled his career 6-12 months.

Therefore, right now is his time to shine. He definitely needs to fight for a world title within his next 2 fights or 6 months, whichever comes quicker.

The good thing is he's very active, has already fought 3 times this year before the end of July, that's pretty good. All he needs now is to step up his opposition and a world title eliminator bout next up would be ideal.

 

i think he peaked two years ago. or when he beat sam the second time he peaked.

but goin down hill now, i ****in pray he gets a huge fight to seen what would happen, but it will never happen.

i hope he fights Geale or Sturn next.

 

The Danny Green fight and second Sam Soliman fights were the best we have seen and probably ever will see from Mundine... After the KO of Sam he should have jumped all over the world scene doing his best to get the best... Unfortunately due to injuries and chocs lack of interest in wanting to fight the best his career has stalled and he got older... At the end of the day he hasnt looked impressive since March 2007... At his age now and the way he has looked in his last 4 to 5 outings i think Choc is pretty much done in terms of fighitng the elite example Pavlik, Abraham, Calzaghe, Kessler e.t.c ... Im not a Mundine hater by any means just calling it how i see it

 

Nice post.

History has shown reflex fighters have a sharp fall into decline. One day they are seeing punches sail past by a few inches, the next they are landing.

 

I think we need to see him fight a couple of tune up fights to see just where he's at atm.

 

Thats what he have been doing for 2 yearsatsch

 

He was joking mate
