    While this fight makes logical/financial sense, it still really pisses me off that Mundine is getting anywhere near a top belt..

    Mundine has been gettin dropped and beaten by bums in Australia for the past few years now..

    Nailed it..

    Can only imagine the promotional bull**** they'll come up with to elevate Mundine, and of course these uneducated Aussies will buy into it. This will be huge in that part of the world..

    If Mundane wins more than 2 rounds and makes it the full 12 he will probably win a decision :yep

    I don't think Haye was fighting Harrison trying to avenge a loss to him.

    Are you actually defending this from a boxing standpoint? I respect it from a financial standpoint, and as with Haye-Harrison this is a purely financial move.

    The fact Mundine got **** decision over Geale is nothing more than a marketing factor now. Danny could have rematched Mundine years ago, but now he's got a title it makes financial sense.

    As I said, it's like Harrison-Haye down under. Its a **** fight no real fan wants to see, but will make shitloads of money off casual fans. I didn't say it mirrored the Haye-Harrison fight in every single way you pedantic ****.

    If believe Geale is rematching Mundine for that reason you're a mug.
