    For sure mate. Although in my line of work (taking away people's liberty when required :) ) it's good, cos people drink less in winter! What about you?

    lol. Now you're just getting confused. On the one hand you're telling me that I'm stating the obvious but then you're saying that my view isn't "synchronised" with most people's views. Wtf?

    First off, I couldn't give a **** whether my opinion is the view that most people have or not. If that's how you establish the validity of your own opinions mate then I think you have self-esteem issues that you should address. And secondly, I think you'll find that quite a few people agree that because of the Ottke incident Anthony Mundine's beard is rubbish. I can see several in this thread for starters.

    But bringing those other KOs with Donaire etc into the equation I see the source of the confusion for you now. You're failing to grasp just how light a puncher Ottke was. And you're failing to take into account that it wasn't a flash knock-down my friend, it was out cold. That puts that incident in whole different realm to the one's you mentioned. But yes, now that you mention it, based on his last three fights Katsidis' whiskers may also be a little bit weak at the top level, but that's beside the point.

    TBH Hmmm, this is why I haven't really posted here much since 2003. You end up in the same stupid arguments again and again with neither side giving a inch, yet at the end of the day I really don't give a **** whether you agree with me or not ;)

    Mundine's a ***, but I think it's testament to the guys sublime skills that he can go 36 rounds with 3 big hitters and not get stung.

    But tbh I think this thread ended when Huricn said he'd seen Mundine go down in sparring to much lighter fighters. We're talking headgear and big gloves mate.

    How about you give us an example?

    Have you taken into consideration that in fights like against Monzon he had to lose plenty of weight (would do road runs wrapped in plastic) and that's going to make you struggle if your opponent is working you hard.

    Comments like yours shouldn't be made unless you add some facts to back it up. :nono

    As for Choc's chin...has he ever been caught flush on the jaw?
