    Not an easy question to answer without me seeing footage of fighters.

    Fighters i def cant see outboxing/breaking Mundine down are:

    Lacy
    Andrade
    Bika
    Green


    I really havnt seen too many fighters to compare.

    I know I am in a large minority, but I would pick Andrade against Mundine, because of styles.

    @ S/Middle ,, Kessler , Bute , Andrade and possibly Froch & Bika ,,, @ Middleweight ,well to be quiet honest as Mandy hasn't fougt there for some time i can't really say ,however i see him coping a beating of AA , Pavlik and Miranda should she ever meet any of them ..look for Mandy to call out every Argentinian middle in the buisness , just because his brave father got beaten by Monzon way back when there is no need to take it out on their entire taxi trade ..

    At 168...Kessler and Calzaghe.

    Bute would be tough but if I had to go one way or the other, I'd go with Mundine.

    Froch :lol: Ok,. a bit harsh, but I think Mundine would have a rather easy time with Froch if they ever fought.

    Andrade would lose a wide decision. Sure he piles on the pressure and never stops coming forward, but he has zero defence and his attack is crap.

    At 175...Dawson beats Mundine comfortably. Not sure about guys like Hopkins, Tarver ect. I'd have to see Mundine at 175 first.

    At 160, Can only really comment on Pavlik, and I'd give Mundine a good chance against him. If Mundine has any chance of scoring this fight, he should jump at it, because the rewards would be massive.

    Actually, I think Hopkins beats Mundine at 175, based on the fact that Calzaghe looked bad vs Hopkins, because Hopkins used every dirty trick in the book to spoil for the whole 12 rounds. Calzaghe is the master of adaptation, whereas Mundine is not.

    Therefore I see Mundine losing to Hopkins at 175.

    Kessler and Calzaghe at 168, Calzaghe again at 175.

    Ottke at 168 :yep

    Andrade at 168 - Siaca troubled Mundine with his size and ranginess - qualities that Andrade also possesses. Considering Mundine is moving down to MW because he has admitted he can't hang with the bigger SMWs, I think Andrade beats him like Siaca did. I don't believe that Mundine didn't turn up the night he fought Siaca, I believe, in keeping with what he actually said to Siaca after the fight ("Too big, too strong") that Siaca beat a 100% Mundine that night.

    I see Hopkins beating Mundine too. Taylor is a 50/50 fight for me. Tarver loses to Mundine (styles...).

    JC kicks mundine, Kessler loses in a rematch.

    Pavlik is a 50/50 fight, Mundine to beat Wright (Winky's not in his prime anymore and Choc would be the bigger man). Sturm is a walkover for Choc.

    At 168 Calzaghe, Kessler again, taylor, hopkins bute, miranda & froch.
    At 160 Pavlik, abraham, wright - even still would white wash him, I think sturms a pick em. Honestly mundien has all the tools in the world but I don't think he has it mentally for the elite level. Can anyone tell me about a fight that mundine was losing & he managed to turn it around & score the victory & don't say the 1st soliman fight as the judges did all the work there.

    I think Andrade would give him trouble, as he has a very mixed up relentless style throwing from diff angles. But could be an even fight.
