    Hi Aussies. Can anyone tell me what the hell is going on with this guy? Why does he continually fight cab drivers and liquor store workers?

    Are the general Aussie population thick? Do people actually pay to watch these exhibitions?

    The guy is a joke. He cannot seriously have any supporters?

    :lol:

    The majority of the Australian public are wise to him, only the likes of ashley and 20a87 who post here are still fooled.

    Does he plan to ever fight someone even remotely good again?

    I am honestly shocked that ANYONE turns up and pays to watch those sham fights he's been having.

    Is he semi-retired or something?

    According to Mundine and his depleted band of followers, all the big names have ducked him - Pavlik, Golovkin etc - and so he has been forced to move down in weight to find worthy opponents.

    He's fighting a guy who is 30-12 next. Really?

    Do people actually pay money to watch these exhibitions? I know fighters have deluded nut-hugging fans but come on, seriously?

    first paragraph.so he can say''i am undefeated for 5 years''
    2nd paragraph.no not really some do since the second Soliman fight i have only paid to watch Taylor and Geale and went to my local club to watch the Medley fight.
    3rd paragraph.apparently enough that warrants Main Event putting all of his fights on.alot of idiots out there IMO.there money i suppose.

    Mandy is a wasted talent on a few levels.

    Mainly because he isn't fighting a high enough calibre of fighter often enough.

    And secondly because he speaks too much bull****, yet doesn't have the pizzazz of the fighters who are into smack talk. Mandy sounds like he has a mental disorder when speaking. It just doesn't come across right, and that makes the majority of the public dislike him.

    The people around him all speak highly of him, however the jurys out in my opinion. Mainly because of the idiotic things he's said, and then attempted to take back. And also because of the way he disrespects the sport, and the fighters in as much as welching out on weight limits, mandatorys, trying to hand pick judges, etc.

    A few think that because he's made plenty of money, that makes him successful, well that may be true to a point, however he could have been much more for himself, and in the eyes of the serious boxing fans.

    I have my doubts that he'll fight someone worthy ever again.

    To be honest mate, Mundine is pretty much off topic for the Aussie forum and is rarely brought up or discussed.

    Mate, most of us are as mystified as you are.

    The general concensus, I think, is that his manager, is just pulling the tits off the cow. Milking the dummy's for what they can get before he fades into a ghost writer.
    They will then get a second rogering with his biography.

    "Fly like a butterfly, lie like a flutterby" :hey

    he is finished at the top level of the sport now, he knows he can't beat a top 10 fighter any more at 160 or 168, so he is just on a milk run now
