Why does green try to fool us that.....

not possible......:yep

 

Not so sure mate.

The best way to improve a sport profile is to get your competitors in the overseas market competing at the top level.
This is a given knowing that the big money and the big prizes are fought on other continents in boxing.
This drives the local guys to set thier goals higher knowng there are bigger opportunities outside of Australia.

Although Mundine has brought a local audience to boxing he hasn't driven it to the rest of the world.
This in my opinion stifles development and the sports profile.
Most of us on here realise that Mundine is not doing local boxing any favours by promoting himself and putting on woeful cards.
Most young boxers hopefully know this and look at the Katsidis's, Bika's and the Vics of aussie boxing to get thier motivation.
I'm a sucker for boxing and dont need much of an excuse to watch it, so for that reason Mundine has peddled opportunitiesd to watch.
But quantity never outwieghs qaulity, especially in boxing where blokes pitted against one another cant hide when skill difference is blatantly obvious.

 

Partially agree with both of you (Joe & Boxon).

IMO it's undeniable that Mundine & Green have been good for the promotion and exposure of boxing in Australia!

But it could equally be argued that they could have done more, both here and abroad. Particularly Mundine, who possesses an ample amount of virtually untested ability.
