    Word has reached me that Big Bob Mirovic will be facing John Hopoate in the near future on a blockbuster card. If it gets the nod, well done, especially to Hoppa for taking on a way more experienced opponent at such an early stage in his career. Stay tuned...

    Even a 42 yr old bob will KO the biggest goose in any sport.

    :yep



    When the moon hits your eye
    Like a big-a pizza pie
    That's da mori
    When a polooka looks to shine
    but hes had too much wine
    That's de mori

    Bells'll ring
    Ting-a-ling-a-ling
    Ting-a-ling-a-ling
    And you'll sing "ring d bella"
    cameras play
    Tippi-tippi-tay
    Tippi-tippi-tay
    Like a gay heavy fella

    When the card girls make you drool
    Joost-a like pasta fazool
    its not de mori

    When you dance round the ring
    With a cloud at your feet, you're in trouble
    When you walk in a dream
    But you know you're not dreamin', signore
    'Scusami, but you see
    Back in old Napoli, that's de mori

    (When the moon hits your eye)
    (Like a big-a pizza pie, that's de mori)

    That's de mori

    (When a heavy looks to shine
    (but hes had too much wine, that's de mori)

    That's de mori

    It’s gotta say something about our heavies that it seems to be the same old faces year after year.

    Full credit to big Bob, but there ought to be young talent ‘retiring’ 42 year old heavies off the scene.

    But we’ve never had any decent heavyweights! That’s why Tony Mundine (Snr) was able to collect Australian titles, including HW, at will (in the 70’s), even though he was a MW (a bloody world class one too). Ambrose Palmer was doing the same thing in the 30’s.

    I guess going back there was Jimmy Thunder (really Samoan), Dean Waters (till other issues took his focus) and fleetingly, the man who could wack but not jab, Dave Russell (really a CW anyway). But in my opinion you need to go all the way back to Bobby Dunlop (in about 1969) to find a genuinely good Australian HW.

    Really hoping Kali Meehan or someone else can go on and disprove that opinion.

    i think kali missed his chance, seems to me hes to inactive, since his fighting with touch of sleep he should have fought another couple times with someone around the same ranking and if he knocked em out would of made some really good money but now hes prob going to be doing it tough to flat out fight someone from the top 10 now that they know he hasnt got a name, but hes a big danger to anyone looking for a safe fight.
