    WWOS didnt give me a chance to clarify my point this morning. This is for everyone. I'm not sayin our people are weak or weakened. Far far from it. We stand proud and strong. We have been so strong to endure so much hardship and issues. Everyone knows how much i love and support my people. I was hurt to hear that some people took it differently. My point and frustration is that the Indigenous people and culture is being diluted and disappearing before our eyes. I just don't know what to do about it. It's sad and hurtful. We live in such a beautiful country with beautiful people. But we have lots of work to do. Just look at some of the awful comments from facebook and twitter. it proves my point. Come one people stop the filth. Our country has to fix this divide. We all need to understand and respect. Myself included. I might not have said everything right & some have misunderstood or followed bad eggs. It started out with boxing show hype but some real issues came in. Real life issues with Australian culture shouldn't mix with games. Sorry about that. Just know I'm comin from a good place to make this a better land for all equally. All this has got everyone thinking and talking. Please think some more and remember to respect. Especially respect those that are less fortunate. Those who really know me also know I mean the best intentions. Hope u get my point. Choc

    I don't hate mundine at all, i don't think he lived up to his potential and i think he puts his foot in his mouth too much, but i do not hate him by any stretch of the imagination

    You can always be relied upon for a negative Mundine comment. You are a hater whether you realise it or not. If you don't like him thenn why comment?

    The only acceptable answer is that Mundine is Australian boxing.

    I personally think you never got over the clinic Mundine ran on Green.

    i have given mundine credit when it is deserved, i think this situation definitely warranted negative comments, and do you really think that anthony wrote that himself? i don't think he did, if you take that as negative so be it. Mundine has done a lot for australian boxing i agree but i think people like geale, tomlinson and caparello are the future of sport in this country. I have gotten over it, mundine was sensational that night and fought the perfect fight against green, no bitterness over here :hi:

    He said on his facebook, it too him all afternoon. Of course he wrote it. When Mundine retires, boxing will diminish in Australia.

    Well i still have my reservations, im sure he maybe dictated it or told someone what he would like to say and they wrote it for him, either way ot doesn't matter it was an appropriate apology

    Actions speak louder than words.

    In Mundine's case, I'd rather see less actions - and hear no words.

    Choc is a good person. Simple.
    Does he put his foot in his mouth sometimes. Yes.
    Usually trying to hype a fight.
    It's funny Danny Green says dumb **** all the time and the media don't say ****. Weather we care to admit it most Australians are racsist. Mundines comments about Geales family where wrong and he apologized.

    To right, atleast he didnt come out waving some DVD claiming he has all the proof on the DVD in slow motion, he appologised which is something Danny Green still hasnt done to this day over the Briggs fight, instead he tried to convince us all that a soft part of the skull exists in all fully grown men and he hit that part of Briggs skull. Its not just the media that ignore it and give Green a free pass but also the fans.

    Green saying Briggs was lower than a K9 doesnt get worse than that
