    Representing our flag... Vic by a good distance.

    Aussie born, Mundine still holds it, which is probably a sad relflection of aussie boxing considering his last 18 months.

    Yeah, Vic by a fair margin for mine.

    Interesting that many (or most) of our best are imports. It's great that these guys are choosing to come here, fight here and make it home. But it would be great to see more 'born here' guys making the grade too.

    who else but the raging bull !!!!!!!

    aussie born - michael katsidis for having balls the size of tasmania, and best up and comer give me lenny zapp anyday. The kid is only 21 and has already 17 fights. Word has it that elias nasser has organised for lenny to fight in america with vic next time round. Bloody sensational.
