    If that's the case sorry AO it's just he quoted Rooboy saying Mundines resume sh*ts on Green's and then posted what his net worth is. Riddick Bowe is broke but his resume beats most fighters. Mundine and Green are excellent businessmen.

    It would be interesting to know, if Mundine has made $30mill out of boxing to date fighting avge fighters it would interesting to know how Green has done compared to Mundine.

    Well Mundine was earning 600k per year before boxing and all of his fights have been PPV. Green on the other hand was a comm/Olympic games boxer who like most boxers probably worked their way up to being on FOX and then PPV(Beyer 1,Lucas and beyond). He would be doing well besides fighting he does seminars,sells merchandise etc. Phil Austin said in a thread he owned 1/2 of Perth.

    I can see green earning a lot more than Mundine in retirement, he has built a nice reputation in WA and seen as the good guy nation wide, jumping on board this coward punch campaign is only going to help him when he does eventually run for a seat but for which party ?

    So does anyone disagree with this? the way i see it mundine has a clear edge legacy wise then green. And also does gealey already surpass both of them?

    I was lucky to have been very involved with Greeny's preparation for the Lucas fight & the whole experience is one I'll never forget.
    Daniel had just lost controversially to Beyer & was training to fight Sean Sullivan in early December 2003. I was looking after him as Jeff was busy with an upcoming promotion & Daniel & I worked a lot together when he was an amateur.
    I got a call on a Thursday arvo in mid November from Don Majeski asking if Daniel would be interested in fighting Lucas as Beyer had withdrawn from injury from their bout & it would be sanctioned for the interim title as Lucas had also lost controversially to Beyer.
    We had 6 weeks to prepare for a December 20 bout in Montreal, Greeny had the rest of the week off to surf & get his head together for what lay ahead.
    We did 3 weeks in Sydney then a 2 week camp in Miami with Jermain Taylor then tapered for the last week in Montreal where it was -20 degrees Celsius.
    I have never seen a more dedicated athlete than Daniel during that camp, we (Jeff, Daniel & I) devised a game plan & he implemented it after a torrid first 2 rounds.
    Eric Lucas was in great shape physically & mentally but Daniel was ready to die out there that night rather than lose! (hate using this term but it's the truth) it would've been upto the corner t protect him from himself that night if it came to it.
    That to me is Greeny's finest performance, it was what turned him from an unlucky kid who may have fluked it against Beyer who might not have taken him seriously to World Title holder (no matter what you think of interim belts, they were 2 real world championship level boxers) who was a force to be reckoned with on the World stage.
    After that boxing became a business for Daniel, the passion was still there but the mindset had changed as it does for every who gets to that level,they are never quite the same, even if they become better boxers, the fun gets taken out a bit?

    Would not believe a word Phillip Austin says regarding boxing.

    That was what I voted as his best win. From memory I had Lucas winning the first 3 good against the odds victory on foreign soil.

    I believe Geale does surpass both yes. Winning titles in Germany against a unremarkable(yet solid champion in Sylvester)who had about 5 successful defences and Sturm super champion is better than what Green and Mundine have done IMO. Though Mundine has fought and lost to better fighters than Geale or Green has faced(Ottke,Kessler). But he lost to them and 90% of his other fights were against dross(same as Green).
