    Daniel Geales already beat up on this bum. Mundine wont be rigging cards in the US. A very fragile, safe fighter is Mundine, skills have declined and he is very hesitant, Id be shocked if he fought outside OZ.

    he has no heart and confidence against world class opposition. he was too cocky at first, and like his old man- has a weak chin- hard to fight his style- with no chin- hands down, like roy. he s like a poor mans roy jones- post tarver. he has alot of talent- but too many holes in his game to be a top fighter- which is a shame- because he is entertaining- but has been knocked down by everyone he fights- although he ll go on to win most times.

    still- despite all that- he s a world class athlete all in all. he was a top 5/8- like a quarterback in nfl, with top speed and power - and to be able to be a top 10 middleweight is still an accomplishment. he couldve played nbl- our local basketball league too - and been a decent backup point.

    the guy went to my high school and finished when i started- and i remember him coming back to play ball on weekends at the open court- and would just walk up and casually stuff a 360 degree dunk, 2 hands- off a standing start, one step.

    not many athletes in the world can do what he s done.

    although anyone can look good in a highlight video-

    you can see how talented he is and fluid he is in this clip. in terms of movement- he moves as well as any slick american boxer- he just has no chin- as i said- and is damn twitchy because of it.

    I didn't even realise this joke was still fighting, why hasn't he retired yet?
