    Just spoke to the executive producer and she's told me that the whole Mundine card is PPV but they will be showing the Final live in their normal timeslot on Fox8

    I'm very surprised so many people think Medley is going to stop him.. Have you guys predicting this, actually seen Medley fight? I really cant see anything in him that will trouble Mundine, am I missing something?

    If you are basing it solely on Mundine being weight drained, thats grasping at straws IMO.

    The effects of being weight drained are monumental to say the least. It certainly evens up the fight a whole lot if Choc gets to 154lbs.

    Yeah I can understand that completely, but at the same time Mundine has been 'pretty professional' (I use it loosely because he has dicked a few guys around with weight). But when it comes to making a point (him being 'The Pioneer') he will be very disciplined and do it right.

    Like Mundine said he only has to make weight for 10 seconds, then he'll come into the ring at about 170 and absolutely monster and manhandle Medley. Just my opinion though...

    Fair enough and it just might happen. However, look at Oscar going back down to 147lbs. It ruined him. It's just not that easy to do, otherwise everyone would. When was the last time Anthony weighed 154lbs I wonder...

    He was probably 12, had no hair on his nuts and plenty on his head...

    Mundines weight loss hasnt been drastic like others he has been compared to.

    He should flog Medley easily

    Not far off the mark there with this statement - Medley = punchers chance. Above statement has a air of accuracy about it.

    I wish somebody knew the answer to this question as the only time I want to watch Mundine ever fight again is when he is in a really really good chance of losing! otherwise I don't wana waste my time.!

    Probably 1/1000 of a second before his entire left arse cheek bounced off the canvas, with thanks to 'Crazy' Kim..

    I would be shocked if Anthony can make a healthy 154. Even if it is all water loss. This talk of him never having to diet makes no sense considering the last fight.

    Guys, different people have different ideas on dieting. Some consider the conventional salads etc as a diet, whilst others consider cutting pizza out of their meal plan as dieting. I can tell you many fighters have very little idea on how to eat well and lose weight properly which is why we see the drained, weak looking guys jumping on the scales. For almost all of the them it just doesn't have to be that way but that is the system they use.
    Mundine can make 154 and still be strong. It just depends on how he does it

    As Mundine can't win the title unless he makes weight, surely there's an absolutely huge incentive for him to weigh in at 154.

    If he doesn't, he'll have 'half' starved himself for no belt and a bout that surely won't bring the $$$ that a Geale re-match would have bought.

    Plus he'll be further in weight away from a Green re-match for no good reason.
