    Really that's all it boils down to

    After RJJ, Danny thought he could get a big payday from Hopkins. Didn't pan out, nor did Tarver or any other americans

    So now Mundine is by far the biggest domestic payday

    Danny is doing exactly what every other name boxer tries to do. Get the most money for least amount of risk/work

    Dont have a problem with him making money,but when you put 3mths worth of dribble before it on how he is this and that,the worlds at his feet and mundines a pissant,and your going to bash B.HOP then if i was mundine id say green **** off.
    Its 60/40 and when i say,not when you say.

    Mundine's given us a decade of bloody dribble!

    ...promises of 'World Dominance' ring any bells??

    ...and Mundine backed it up with???

    ..his biggest overseas success was conquering Tasmania!!

    Not even a Green fan, but like most of Oz look forward to him beating Mundine who's promised the universe and delivered Tasmania!!.

    Difference is despite all the dribble Mundine makes his money off his name unlike green who would have **** all if Mundine stayed in league.

    Exactly.

    As has been noticed and said by many here, Green is following the Mundine playbook. Lets remember who was offering who bundles of money to come out of retirement. Mundine has being doing his smoke and mirrors act for years. Green is still a relative novice at it but checkmated him in one go with getting Jones Jr over here.

    The best thing about Mundine is his given some worthy local guys a good payday. Worthy in the sense they've paid their dues and no-one could begrudge them the dollars. Hell, hes even given some young guys a go. I'll actually give him credit for that. But most of them were out of their natural weights, past their prime or yet to reach it. Still, they got a shot on the chocolate wheel so good luck to them.

    The funniest thing is not his continual lines of bs, but the fact there are some who believe it, and funnier still, try to justify it.

    I think its great if anyone can make some money out of boxing, and even better, leave with your faculties intact. Thats a successful career.

    But you can't make a purse out of a sows ear...ie don't be proclaiming yourself as the best when you fight no-one near that level.

    Johnjourno, you really are a sad case, every post you've ever made always has a childish dig at Green. We know how you feel. Move on.

    But I have to ask, how exactly did Mundines name get Green a title shot at Beyer?

    Also, do you know anything else about boxing? What are you a journo of? I'm sure someone as clever as you has written for the Fist (The Australian version, not the German one which I'm sure your a subscriber of).

    I guess after Mundine retires it'll be back to teaching high school maths for Abdullah Khoder Nasser. At least he can play his box set of Queen albums hes no doubt been able to afford by now.
