Tarver is a way harder fight than this version of Jones...but i see where you are coming from, he wants dollars
Good to hear Israel Folau has resisted the advances of Mundine's management. Khoder has managed to make SBW short-term wealthy. But let's see the long term benefits, or otherwise.
Jonathon Thurston is being targeted by Union, i doubt he will resist the big money offers they are flinging at him especially if the club continues on their ordinary ways
Manfredo would die laughing at that offer. He makes more then that fighting bums in Rhode Island. lol
Sook all you want, money is money *****, NRL are slowly finding out how dominant other codes are becoming.
Close Teke, it was actually £400,000 whats that Aus $ 800,000 ? i heared but 10% dibs on his next two fights IF he beat Calzaghe ? if Mandy was that confident he would have jumped at the offer but he didnt , the reason being was that Mandy knew you lemons would pay Aus $ 50 to watch him take on Arggie Cabbies and his mates from down the local mousque thus earning him far more by milkng that WBA plastic strap before the real big boys came back on the scene after fighting each other in a real "all the marbles " unification fight, Mandy showed his true colours when challenged by the banished Kessler and ran down to Middleweight in an attempt to lure Super Sam back for a fourth time i reckon . Can't fault Mandy really at least he knows his limitations . :deal
We've had this discussion before and all figures thrown about was nowhere near that figure. Muttley stuck up the article that im referring to. You keep mentioning Mandy ran from Kessler but you also keep forgetting he has already fought him and lost convincingly. Mundine ducks nobody ha
July 2007 - Mundine's manager responds to Frank Warren From *********, Australia - click here for Article Anthony Mundine’s manager Khoder Nasser (pictured together) has demanded a formal offer from Joe Calzaghe’s promoter Frank Warren for a unification bout between the super-middleweight title-holders. He also rejected claims that the WBA champion was avoiding the Welshman, saying it was the other way around. Warren this week claimed Mundine had ignored a $US2 million offer to fight Calzaghe and that the Welshman was willing to fight him in Australia. ``I’ve never spoken to Frank Warren,’’ Nasser told Sydney radio station 2SM. ``I’ve spoken to his matchmaker and I said we’d like to fight Joe. ``We never heard back from then. ``These claims are very Frank Warrenish ``I’ve also spoken to Mogens Palle, who promotes Mikkel Kessler and they’ve been trying to get a deal from Frank Warren for six months ``Frank is very careful about who Joe fights. ``If there’s a real offer and good money we’d be happy to fight Calzaghe. ``Anthony has never ducked anyone. After 10 fights he fought Sven Ottke so that tells you he’s prepared to fight anyone.’’ In an interview on 2KY, Calzaghe's promoter, Frank Warren, said he tabled a $US2 million bid six months ago for Mundine to fight the long-reigning WBO title holder - but had never received a reply. But Nasser said Warren had the details the wrong way around. "We've been calling Frank Warren for the past six months trying to get Joe Calzaghe; we have never, ever, received a reply about an offer or a counter offer," Nasser said from the Gold Coast, where Mundine is preparing for his June 27 title defence against Argentina's Pablo Daniel Zamora Nievas. "He said he offered us $2m, but to start the negotiating process Frank has got to understand that saying ain't doing. "If you want to negotiate to fight Anthony Mundine, do you talk to 2KY or do you talk to Khoder Nasser? Why wouldn't you send something through the fax machine with your signature on it?" Denmark's Mikkel Kessler, who beat Mundine in 2005, has been seeking a fight with Calzaghe since last September, but just two weeks ago the WBA super champion and WBC titleholder's manager, Mogens Palle, accused Warren of shielding Calzaghe from the bout. Warren now says Calzaghe wants to accept the offer and would be willing to travel outside Britain for only the third time in his 43-fight career. "Frank Warren is an astute businessman and he wants to keep his boy on top," Nasser said. "He doesn't want to put him in dangerous fights against Anthony Mundine or Mikkel Kessler or Bernard Hopkins or Roy Jones jnr, because they've all tried to get Calzaghe. "If you look at Choc's history, he's never once evaded a serious fight; he had only 10 professional fights when he fought Ottke, a guy that had more title defences than he'd had fights, and he didn't shy away from Kessler for one second. "You've got to ask yourself, who has Joe fought over the past four years?" *** Just sticking this in for light reading. Would be terrible trying to organise a fight with these two in charge Warren and Nasser.
