    Mundine was offered both Foch & Duddy but declined!

    Writing in this month's edition of Ray Wheatley's 'World of Boxing', Garry Todd claims:

    'I had him fights set up with Carl Foch and John Duddy, but I never received a call back. These were high profile fights he could have won, but instead he chose not to. At 34 it seems his best days are behind him, and a fight with Green at light heavyweight would be financially rewarding.'

    In Mundine's defence, his phone was probably engaged while he was busy trying to ring Pavlik, Sturm, Kessler etc.

    Very misleading things to say if he's not going divulge purse splits etc, can't see him turning duddy down for any other reason and froch is a weight class above now.

    Interesting....I wonder when these fights were offered?...Froch has been tied into the super 6 for 8 months now...and wont be fighting anybody out of the 6 until hes finished....why bring this up now....smells suss to me :huh

    Also Duddy's stock went down mid 2009 when he was beaten by Lyell.....thats why we saw talk of Mundine and Geale V Lyell last year.....because Duddy dropped off the radar

    John Duddy was being mooted in Sept/Oct last year as being Mundine's opponent for the Tassie card, which also featured Geale.

    Instead of Duddy, team Mundine went with the Falliga blockbuster!

    Crap it's misleading.
    Purse splits shouldn't come into for Mandys.
    Does he want to fight the best, or does he want the most money?
    Can't have it both ways his position.

    He's a cash cow fraud, nothing more.

    Why fight Duddy coming off a loss?

    Dont you remember all the talk of Geale and Mundine chasing Lyell after he beat Duddy.....thats why Mundine didnt fight Duddy :deal

    Like I said when was the fight with Froch set?

    Froch fought Taylor mid year then joined the super 6....so when was this mystical fight going to happen?

    Its v.misleading, whats the guys agenda he should post the full facts. Boxing is his job. Neither fight would have been for mega bucks and if the fight wasnt in australia then its not attractive and duddy and froch are hardly the best.

    Mooted is different than a made fight.

    I hope this is ****.

    About half Mundine's oppoents have come off losses Ash.

    As for the timing of when Foch and Duddy bouts were, or could have been set - no idea.

    You'd have to wonder why Todd would be quoted saying this in a national boxing publication if it wasn't fact.
