It's hard to argue with Sam Soliman getting a crack at Winky Wright and Mundine twice with 7 or so losses on the record. Pretty sure he got 3K Battery a crack at Stevie Molitor not so long ago as well.
its ultimately harder to argue against the fact, that noel thornberry got world title shots, in the last 18 months for; shannon taylor maselino masoe jamie pittman gavin topp also. got sean sullivan 3 good paydays against mundine and green. got sharon anyos her first world title shot. and in the last ten years got many other aussie fighters world title shots.... if i was an ambitious fighter on the australian or new zealand scene, i would be ringing noel thornberry, just to say hello, to keep me in his mind....one never knows what opportunities noel has available..... in australia, only fenech may have a simmilar record.....but even his record doesnt stack up to thornberrys in the last 2 years....
:admin I think that Craig Christian is the best manager in Australia. He has Chris John , Willie Kicket and Jackson Asiku. All three are up there on the world stage with a few of kickkets fights on Indonesian and Phillipine cards. Also he may be fighting on the VIc Darchinyan V Mijares undercard, that in itself is HUGE. Is it true that Vic's manager had him lined up for a World title straight after the loss to Donaire. Its on Boxrec that it was for teh IBO title. Three fights after the loss Vic has won the world title,thats not a bad effort either. Khoder Nasser and Angelo Hyder have to be in the top echelon of World Class managers, people can think what they like about them but in the end they are getting the job done and are making some serious $$$$ . The end scenario is money always talks and bull**** always walks!!!!
Can't see how you can leave Stuart out of the run at least Kegsy, he has gotten some things done for his fighters. Considering how small the sport is in this country with the likes of Noel, H, Stu, Craig and Khoder and their clout on the world scene our fighters are pretty lucky I reckon
I'd say Max Bowman. whos managing katsidis? and who managed mundine cause they done a mighty fine job as he's only fought 2 world class fighter his whole career yet been a champ for ages
he had a paper title for a little while . he gave it up when kessler became his mandatory....just a gutless ****.
I didnt know that Craig Christian still had Asiku, Because wasn't Chris John matched to fight Asiku in a defence? Anybody know what happened with that one? Kegsy?
forget kegsy he dont know **** about boxing he just tries to make a name for himself with 2nd hand news. answer to your question.... when we went to harrys for sparring recently asiku was there training and continues to be managed by CC!
