World IBO cruiserweight champion Danny Green has put his title and a lucrative share of the purse up for grabs in an attempt to get back in the ring with Anthony Mundine.

Green, who was expected to name his challenger at a press conference this morning, has instead set his sights on a multi-million re-match with

Wait til the opposition aren't ready: Mundine is underweight and Khoder overseas; and offer a very public challenge that sounds too fair to the public to refuse, and perhaps too good for team Mundine to refuse also!

Ready for rematch: Danny Green wants revenge for his loss to Anthony Mundine in 2006.

World cruiserweight champion Danny Green has challenged long-standing rival Anthony Mundine to a rematch.

Green last fought Mundine in 2006, losing in a 12-round points decision.

He says he still has not had talks with Mundine or his manager, but says he is willing to fight in Sydney as soon as a rematch can be organised.

Green was flanked by Aboriginal AFL player Des Headland from the Fremantle Dockers, former West Coast premiership defender David Wirrpanda and school kids from Girrawheen High School when he made the announcement.

"I don't see how he could possibly turn this offer down and if he does I suggest he check his passport and leave this country because he'd have to hang his head in shame, especially considering that 10 per cent of the purse will be going directly to the indigenous youth of this country," Green said on Thursday.

"For me personally it's an investment in our future and investment in the indigenous youth in this country.

"To give other young kids a chance to aspire and achieve their dreams that they've longed for, especially in remote areas where kids don't get the access to the type of facilities they need to improve and get ahead of life.

"This I think is what's going to smoke him out of the hole he's been hiding in since he called me out of retirement."

Green lost to Mundine in a unanimous points decision at super middleweight in Sydney in 2006.

Green hung up the gloves two years later but came out of retirement in February last year at the urging of Mundine, who promised to fight Green at light heavyweight in Perth.

Mundine later shied away from the re-match and continued to fight at middleweight but is now facing an offer he can't refuse.

"I starved myself literally for two or three months to make the weight to fight Mundine," Green said.

"I lost fair and square.

"Don't let Anthony Mundine or anyone around him fool you about the weight division difference, that there's a massive difference.

"All Anthony has to do is not starve himself to make the weight and we're the same, simple.

"I'll lose a few kilos, he just doesn't have to starve himself and we're at the same weight.

"So don't let anyone fool you that there's a massive difference in weight.

"And don't forget he's already said in the press that he'll whip me at heavyweight.

"Now I won't be anywhere near heavyweight, so if he's going to whip me at heavyweight, there's no problem doing me at cruiserweight."
