Dislike both as they have both taken the **** out of the sport and fans in the second part of their careers after coming up short in the first part of their careers. I supported both for the first half of their careers.
Hate Mundine, indifferent about Green. At least Green puts on good undercards, pays the fighters well (so I'm told) and has brought out one of the five top imports ever to come to Australia and fight.
Pretty indifferent...I like to see them win and have mixed feelings when they lose. I winge about them taking the public for a ride but still watch, and often pay for their fights because I'm a tragic like the rest of you. They do good and bad for the sport in this country..probably a little more of the former because they get people watching. I probably side ever so slightly with Green because of my inherent racism.
same and because his undercards are quality and he cares more about boxing with his next generation bouts.Mundine will probably go into managing league,Union etc players when he retires.
, Serioul;y though WAR they have both carried the sport down under for yonks between the pair , earned a great deal of cash doing so but the sport would have been ****ed if they weren't in there .
We'd have had no internationally recognised (both good/bad) boxing here for the last 10yrs if it wasn't for both, the fact is, it's as simple as that. :deal As much as we all want to rave about Darchinyan and Katsidis's with their exploits over the last 5-6yrs (well earned kudo's to both), both have proven to be a blimp on the commercial radar in Australia and fundamentally, boxing would be ****ed without Mandy and Green. In saying that, both have had their ****-up's and are just ringing the last remnants of their career facecloth's dry as we speak. Mandy, we can say what we want about his boasts/non-exploits (and there are many), but by geez he's given a stack of Aussie fighters a payday in the past they simply would not have gotten.
Dont hate either of them, but dont like either of them. Mundine had a shitload of talent, and followed him for a while, but F*%K! What a waste of talent... Green has been making his name off Mudine and use that opportunity well. After his epiphany I could no longer give the guy any credit... Dont really want to see a rematch between to two either. IMO it will be the same result.
