    if he does he's pretty lucky. 3 Title shots within the space of 1 1/2 years.

    Yeah he is lucky, but i think he is goin to be a fighter who always just falls short of a world title, unless he gets a weak champ.

    Mundine KO5 Bika

    Anyone who picks Mundine by KO within the first 8 rounds should take Mundine's balls out of their mouth. He went the distance with Calzaghe and Bute, and took Cordingtons biggest punches all who are better punchers then Mundine. Why would Mundine, a defensive counter puncher suddenly KO Bika. Rubbish. Mundine would win if he comes in focused by an 10-2 UD, and could really make a statement to the world that he truely belongs in the upper echelons of the division.

    Its an excellent fight. I think that Mundine is just to good a defensive fighter to get beaten by Bika, although i think Bika will certainly test him and will make it a rough fight.

    Thats your logic. Looking at a smaller fighter with a different style and what the outcome was. Wow, bad post.

    Mundine wide UD. Something like 117-111 IMO.

    Well MSTR its not all that wrong to refer back to Sammy - who "had given Winky Wright all he could handle", So the fact that Bika "went the distance with Calzaghe" Still doesnt mean he will with Mundine. Winky is up there amongst the best so its another "styles makes fights" situation.

    Mundine will not stop Bika. however a wide UD is more likely.

    Comparing people and chins is irrelevant.

    Mundine KO'd sammy yet he couldn't KO that last Argie cab driver :huh

    Since when is Winky a puncher the KO's anyone?. Bika went the distance with Calzaghe and Bute, both who are more effective punchers then Mundine. He then took Cordingtons best punchers, who is a better puncher then Mundine also. Bika is a very big SMW who is naturally this weight, where as Sam was MOVING up in weight, and is small even for 160. If this fight happens, AVATAR BET FOR 1 YEAR THAT MUNDINE WILL NOT KO BIKA. If your confident lets see you back it up.

    Oh its on. :D

    What a gambler.

    Bika is a smarter fighter than people give him credit for. He is raw as but he is natural at the fighting game.
    He got caught by Codrington because he smelt blood, went nuts and Codrington hit him with his signature punch. Sakio was smart enough to hold and use techniques to his advantage to wrestle the ascendacy back.

    I just dont see Mundine ever letting him into that position, and Bika will be wanting to take things into the inside, where he can rough up and land short, sly and often dirty punches.

    The way these guys fight, their strengths, their usual gameplans. I see it being a long and tactical fight to be honest.
