    Mundine is not interested in fighting anyone remotely good.

    He organized a bum to challenge him in the ring after his fight the other night, just so he can justify fighting another stiff in a few months time.

    Magically the guy who challenge him appeared at #7 in the WBA rankings, despite holding WBO pan pacific belts and never fighting any WBA ranked guy or being ranked before.

    ok, well sounds to me that any boxer who is better than this guy (which is about 50 guys it seems) say the money aint right to accept for what used to be an honor in fighting for a world title, but this no name shame takes the fight...it means 1 thing...the market aint there and these fighters just arent worth what they think they are....

    He apparently holds the 'WBA Fedebol light middleweight title'

    Sturm is the WBA Optimus Prime champion, leaving no less than 12 other WBA world championship belts available at 160.

    I'm pissed. I was supposed to get one of those myself, but my mom threw out the Wonder Woman comic with the coupon on the back cover.

    They need to scrap that super champ bull****.

    What happen to title eliminators? Sturm ain't fought nobody in years too.

    Back in February Bronco McKart fought a WBF middleweight title eliminator. On paper at least, the guy Bronco beat was better than Nunez. The World Boxing Foundation now has more credibility than boxing's oldest sanctioning body. That is a sad ****ing case.

    That's unbelievable. But then again, Felix Sturm has been fighting bums to defend this "title".

    I feel sorry for guys like Jamie Moore when this shite happens, the most deserving guys never seem to get a shot.
