    Mundine has never held one of the big 4, Robin Reid was closer to that in 2003.

    So when did Bika become the best Aussie SMW?? When he lost to Calzaghe or when he lost to Bute?

    Mundine is accepted fairandsquare asthe no. 3in the division.
    To say that Bika and Manfredo would beat him must either be taking the **** or trying to boost JC's record.

    I'm pretty sure that you will all look back in a few years time and realise Mundine was in no way shape or form number 3 at SMW.

    At the moment he is. The likes of Froch, Bute, Inkin and Beyer don't have the records to put themselves at no.3. Mundine has put a couple of good wins on his resume such as Green (the no.5 at the time) and Soliman who went the distance with Winky. Mundine himself took Kessler the distance.

    Bute's best in is Bika.

    Froch's best win is Tatevoysan.

    I'm a Calzaghe fan, I don't care about resumes.

    I am 100% certain everyone will giggle at the credit Mundine is currently getting, too much is made of Soliman - Winky.

    Indeed so. Winky even had Soliman rocked badly in the last round, which I was surprised that I forgot in watching this bout again recently.

    It's still a great win however.

    I really dont rate Mundine very high at all. I dont think he is the "real" No. 3 at the moment. I think it is Bute at the moment. But No way Bika can be reckoned better than Mundine either.

    Mundine held the WBA-belt until he lost it to Siaca.

    Well Ottke retired - so that tecnicly made Mundine "real" champion.
