Anthony Mundine vs. Garth Wood II RBR

Good fight I agreed with the 95-93 scorecard, was a hard fight to score overall though...

as I said on the aussie forum would like to see it again

 

Are you sure? You may just have stepped in dog **** or something. :think

 

The report on the scene says that Wood lost a point in the 10th making that round 10-7 Mundine. :huh

 

Stick a fork in Mundine, he's done. What a ****ing idiot going down losing all that muscle. He looks weak as **** and any top 154-160lber would eat him alive. This guy could;ve been in the super sixes if he's stayed there, or atleast been a good fill in with all the injuries.

Mundine-Woods III will happen I think, Mundine won't turn down a payday against a bum, never has, never will. Tonight it was engaging, but what a horrible fight, if you can call it that. Did they sign up that ref from the pub outside the stadium or what? And the commentary, wow, abysmal, they must know only fools would buy a Mundine PPV now, and boy do they go out of their way to treat them like fools.

 

I'd rather have seen Stieglitz, Andrade or even Miranda in the S6 than Mundine:bart

 

I had 94 - 93 Mundine. Last round got him the win.

Pretty ugly fight, Mundine really didn't want to engage at all on the inside and had plenty of trouble figuring out Wood's rhythm and catching him as he came in. It did look promising in the first round when Mundine caught Wood twice with a left as he lunged in. A bit surprised with the judges score, should have been a lot closer.

I still don't rate Wood that highly even though he pushed Mundine to the limit - I just think this is a bogey style for Mundine. Unless Wood can bring a truck load of $$$ for a rubber match, I don't expect them to fight again.

As for Mundine; he does not like pressure at all, and his legs seem to be a lot slower than previous fights (and this includes against Geale, where he also looked like crap)

 

Mundine was good at Super Middle (watch the Green fight), he was good to watch too. Just didn't have the balls to take the fights he needed to take (Kessler rematch, Froch offered him a fight). He had the world at his feet after the Solomom KO, but he chose to take meaningless fights, and he and his career became meaningless

 

Mundine is showing his age - probably why he keeps fighting limited opposition. He has regressed since the Kessler loss.

 

Why are fights in Austrailia on Wednesdays?

 

He's completely done. Imagine he hadn't ducked Golovkin for the middleweight world title, he'd have been knocked out for a month!
