    How long was the gap between Geale's IBO title win against Ajetovic & his 1st defense against mundine....alot more than 9 months.:yep
    McKinnon & MacKillop were both non title affairs over 10 rounds.

    Geale had not received a challenge within that time and they then asked for an extension due to injury to Geale. Be careful pal; I'll get Pat to tell me where you live! LOL

    Mundines name draws the crowds....however 70% of the buyers want to see him get KTFO.

    Maybe a bit like Mayweather or Khan.

    I put it down to product placement not advertising :yep

    No one really watches on Khan on pay per view though.

    How much do Mundines PPV's retail at?

    $50AUD per show.
    Usually an awful undercard made up of no name locals and hapless Thai fighters willing to stay off the canvass for not longer than 2 rounds.

    Fair to say it's questionable value for money AndrewFC.

    The promotion part is largely based on Mundine making promises of world dominance etc.

    Its Andrew FFC

    Thats a pretty large amounts more then all our PPV's which go for 15 pounds.

    surely as he hasnt fought anyone decent in about 10 fights people will see past the facade or is the news etc all going along with the gravy train?

    But he's "the man" :yep

    He used to run off at the mouth....way over the top.....however to an extent he has toned that down in the last 10 or so fights.

    I think people love to hate him and they are paying money in the hope he will get KTFO again.

    At one stage people thought he had a china chin...Ottke KO....and a few flash knock downs however he has stood up to some very hard hitters in Green and Kessler.

    I dont think it matters who he fights next....it will do ok PPV numbers

    The promise of 'world dominance' was actually after his last fight AndrewFFC. His self-promotion has all along been based on similar dribble.
