    I had a shot...see above.

    I could say a few extra things

    1. Mundine should stay clear of Kessler
    2. Mundine looked good and should beat D & A Green, Bika, Bute, Inkin, Lacy, Andrade ECT
    3. Mundine was in a 6 speed and never left 4th.
    4. If his managers keep true to form Mundine will become 5 time world champ in 3 divisions without any dangerous fights {like Kess, Joe ECT}.
    5. I have drunk loads of beer :good .

    It would be a great fight with not much between them each round.

    Mundine would keep the fight on the outside and do enough to win on points with his speed and evasion.

    Bute will have much more than a fighters/punchers chance and is a great fighter.

    It would be a close fight....I just think Mundine will do just enough to win a close fight.

    What do you think?

    Ashley a 2009 version of Mundine wont make 160 pounds, he's getting on to be going from 168 to 175 then back to 160.

    I never saw the fight tonight and wasnt really fussed either.

    I am not sure because I haven't seen any of Choc's last 3 fghts. Think Bute could fight well on the outside, though.

    I also doubt Choc could make 160...anyway...the big money and big fights, even second-rate fights are at SMW...Choc is not going to get a shot at Pavlik anyway...

    Mundine said he was 73 kg a few days before the fight without diet....he will have no problem getting down to MW.

    Mundines next LARGE fight pay day is against Green at LHW provided Green keeps his title. Mundine wont stay long at LHW.

    I think Mundine will go into LHW at about 79kg. If he beats Green he will take 6 months off then MW for 4 or 5 fights...he only needs to shed 7 kgs.

    Yes he can but is he as quick as Mundine and does he have better evasion skills?

    I don't know what Mundine is like these days... His defence was better than Bute's currently is and he was faster, sure...but otherwise, Bute seemed better for me in many important respects - footwork/movement, power/strength, strategy implementation and ring-intelligence, mentality and will-to-win. Again, not sue what Choc is like these days...I cannot find a link for any of his current fights...

    I know Mundine talks loads of **** but he has his sights set on 3 division world champ......He has the SMW, he could get Greens LHW and he would be a big MW but this would be the hard title to get as he needs to earn it at MW and that could take 5 to 10 fights.

    Mundines problem is that he thinks he can set cruse control on through the big fights and still win....big mistake.

    His work rate is also down. Speed is good in the jab and he has good power in the right. Body shots are also good and he has great exasion and good defence.

    Bute VS Mundine is a fight we all want to see.
