    Yeah...he's great at making money by stringing his long-suffering fans along with empty promisses. Great businessman, sure! Still, a joke of a man! And NO...that's not how boxing works, unless you are a POS. Decieving your fans so cynically has nothing to do with the risk/reward game.

    :deal

    Let's see what happens...A lot of it is talk, sometimes just to keep his name in the media. He has backed up some of the talk, he went to Germany after 10 fights for a world title. He beat Echols, he took on Kessler when people still thought Kessler was a monster. And he beat rivals Green and Soliman. It's best just to take what he says as a grain of salt and let the actual matchups and fights speak for themselves.

    The only reason he should go to middleweight is if he has matchups lined up with the likes Pavlik/Winky/Taylor. Otherwise it's really pointless.

    Mundine would be a force at 160.

    I think he'd do well at 160, easily beat Sturm if he could get that fight. Pavlik, he's a very live underdog. Winky i'm not too sure of because he hasn't fought any half decent southpaws. But if he wants to make any noise he has to step it up right away, not **** about with 5 "warm-up" fights.

    Let me see um WBA force Kessler to be the mandatory, ok i go down in weight to avoid that fight, i could make more money fighting a few bums from Argentina and retire with no more loses and maybe a mega fight with fellow countryman Sakio Bika in Australia.

    He'd still whoop your fluff boy Bute.

    Lets not forget he has fought Kessler before so you can quit the ducking crap. Mundine has never been on Joes radar ever so you can quit that aswell.

    You've never been a fan so how can you be disappointed in him?

    Unless Mundine has a real chance of a top flight fight, why duck out of fighting Kessler. It just makes people like me even more smug and happy.

    I really did think teke was not a nuthugger...because he told me he wasn't...and I believed him!:patsch

    Yeah, teke...Choc beats Bute, Kessler, Calzaghe, everyone...so what's the point at staying at 168 when you've done it all!:lol: :-( :lol: :-( :lol:

    Did Jetski edit this out of your post...

    "Very true Teke I agree, Mundine has fought some world class fighters very early in his career. He dared to be great too early on. I hope Bute gets going soon"

    ...teke...you're touchtyping is surprisingly good, but take your time; finish Choc off properly and then we can chat!:hi:
