    You don't seem to want to comment specifically on Mundine in answer to my question Mr 3 time?

    Why is that?

    Lol, i see.

    Mundine has made many promises that he hasnt delivered and that has worn thin on everyone. He claims a certain status but refuses to prove it.
    similar would u agree?

    But i would be lying if i didnt admit that i feel the difference in media tone offered to either is unbelievable. i would also be lying if i said it didnt irk me.

    Both have made promises that they haven't kept, but Green is an amateur at name dropping and then fighting far lesser fighters compared to Mundine.

    What do you think of Mundine's most recent list of opponents Falliga, Medley, Jerez, Waters, Wood twice & Toliver, compared to the names he regularly drops like Cotto, Mayweather etc?

    i agree 100% with wat u r saying.

    greens name dropping is a bit different kinda more like the time mundine vs lester ellis.

    both have shortcommings. to denie it would b wrong.

    Agree with you that they both have shortcomings as far as calling out bigger names than they fight and that Mundine is a worse offender :good.

    As I said a couple of posts ago, you don't seem to want to comment specifically on Mundine?

    The question was:

    What do you think of Mundine's most recent list of opponents Falliga, Medley, Jerez, Waters, Wood twice & Toliver, compared to the names he regularly drops like Cotto, Mayweather etc?

    Try and answer without referring or comparing to Danny Green. Your opinion on Mundine was all I was asking for.

    Both Mundine and Green have taken the **** out of genuine boxing fans for years. I won't be thanking them. This thread is sad.

    Theres no comparison between cotto, mayweather and the rest of those guys. A grade vs c,d,e grade. although medley and water ranked higher then i thought not that it means alot in this day and age.

    between the 2 i go mundine. but not because im blind just personal preference.

    So Mundine has repeatedly called out the biggest names in the sport, and instead fought domestic level opponents, hopeless overseas guys like Falliga, and 200th plus ranked guys like Toliver, but you prefer him to Green?

    To be fair Geale is a more live opponent than anybody Green has fought since the Mundine-Green fight. Obviously not including Tarver.

    There was nothing shabby about 4 time, and now 5 time world champion Antonio Tarver the other night.

    He is lightyears ahead of Mundine's last 7 opponents Falliga, Medley, Jerez, Waters, Wood twice & Toliver, and they paid Tarver $1.3Million to come here when Green held the title!
