    Mundine will box his ass off and get jobbed on the cards.

    Horn will win easily. Mundine has sloppy footwork. Horn on the other hand actually has pretty effective footwork. I think it will be a masterclass by Jeffrey Horn. But that isn't to say Horn is a contender at world class. He isn't. Mundine just has never been world class. He has always fell short.

    Also, at no point in his career was Mundine ever a world beater anyway...he also got stopped by feather-fisted cheater Sven Ottke….nobody good gets stopped by Ottke. I am struggling to come up with a reason this fight should be happening...he's batting 0.5 in his last 8 fights...he's 43 years old....and he's fighting someone who is genuinely a decent fighter...all I can say is...why? What's the point of this? I'm sure Horn couldn't come up with a more legitimate opponent than this. I'm not impressed.

    I think it has something to do with the 8mil purse IB reported.

    Mundine = Chuck Liddell, Horn will just have to put a wind past Mundine's china and it will be sleepy time...

    Lucky for Mundine that Horn is a bum Mundine sparking him out wouldn't surprise me even if he is beyond shot at 43

    Don't give Choc any ideas, he'll start his own Aussie MMA promotion and main event against the Iceman on their inaugural PPV.

    $$$$$$. Money.. That is why Horn is fighting Mundine. In Australia (where I live), there is only - and has only been for the past decade - one name. That is Anthony Mundine. Part of his appeal is that he was a very athletic and exceptional NRL player - prior to entering boxing. Additionally, his old man Tony Mundine was actually a very good boxer, and one of our better fighters we have produced. So there are reasons why Mundine is still, and has always been a very big name in Australia. He does bring with him some controversy, and if three quarters of the country want to see him silenced, there is still a minority that believe the stupid **** he says (even at 43). So in context of everything, and given his history (with his old man actually been a great fighter), Mundine himself is extremely overrated - certainly by Australian's anyway. We barely follow boxing. Jeff Horn on the other hand is probably our best boxer. He isn't world class, but he isn't far off, he has good footwork and solid fundamentals. He is no Jeff Fenech, but he is probably the best we got at the moment, and what he does have, should be far too much for Anthony Mundine.
