    Green is a chance to be RJJ.

    Anyone with any experiance in boxing knows the first thing a fighter looses is explosiveness - explosive power, explosive speed. What made RJJ so good?

    Now Green's power wasn't explosive; it come from a really good power punching technique. Long, straight punching and sitting down on his punches nicely. So no matter how shot Green is, his always going to get respect through his punching.

    So, RJJ v Green. RJJ's chin has been questioned. RJJ has lost alot of what made him so good -I am genuinely close to making Green my favourite for this fight. I think he'll want it more and very well could stop RJJ.

    But ****, this fight means nothing. If Green beats RJJ, its similar to Ali and Berbick. Honestly, I think Green could win.. but his beating RJJ in name only.

    As such, this should have no real impact on the legacies of either Green or RJJ and especially not Mundine. Mundine beat Green - and so he should.

    But Mundine should make his own legacy. He shouldn't have to rely on the people his beat to create his legacy by default. And drawing comparisons subsequent to the fight is pretty stupid - its not A beats B, B beats C, therefore A must beat C. Styles make fights.

    For the record, at their best, RJJ UD Green 120 - 108 but does not stop him.

    Was that a rant? Did it have a point? Did I make the point I was trying to? Well.. I couldn't be ****ed checking but I think so.

    Tend to agree....his hands against Lacy when he let them go looked the fastest in the game.

    I said he "looked" the fastest....some of Mundines combos are so fast you end up missing half the punches :D

    Even the slow motion on my remote didnt help its only when you pause the fight every second you see he has just thrown a 6 punch combo that looks like a jab in normal time:D
