Thread: World wide boxing news

Mundine seems to be totally hated in Aus. Never met any Aussie bloke with a good word to say about him.

Anyway, got the live feed on Boxnation yesterday to see Terence Crawford give a boxing master-class shut-out to #2 ranked Light-Welter Viktor Postol.
Didn't get the KO we predicted in this one, but put Postol down a few times and totally bamboozled him with amazing footwork from a Southpaw stance. (He fights either way). The next big superstar in boxing (imo), and hopefully getting a mega payday against Pacquiao next, maybe November this year.

One to look out for this next Saturday; World Champs at Featherweight; Leo Santa Cruz takes on Ireland's Carl Frampton in Brooklyn, New York.

Green is a very fine person where Mundine is such a horrible fooker.

Saying that though Mundine is a fantastic fighter, Green is not on his level but merely thinks he is.

The last fight was a fuking disgrace, Green was pathetic, Mundine had him fooked from the get go, after all the hype it was a massive let down for the Viewers.

They will now fight again for a massive payday but I'm not quite sure how anyone can get excited about it. ????

They are both over 40 . I respect both of them for being able and willing to mix it up again but who ever wins it's no great victory given their ages.

More of a final payday, fooked if I'll be paying to see it.

One hell of a payday for two has beens eh

incredible amount of Money,

The " pay for view " better bring in a wedge or the promoters may find their wedge a tad on the light side.

10,000,000 sounds like way way too much money for these two guys. I just cant see it.

Only in OZ...

^

I can tell you this.

If Green puts up the same fight as he did last time he need electrocution as punishment.

And if he survives the first jolt them give him another one and crank the Amps up.

The fight is shit anyway,

Mundine is a light weight and Green is Middle weight so now to get this fight on Mundine must put on weight and Green must come down.

Last time Green used the weight loss he had to make as an excuse so what's different this time is that they are both well past their best.

Further more,

Mundine is such a brilliant Athlete and Sportsman he could really be a fantastic spokesperson for the Aboriginal people.

He could project such a positive Image for his people but he forever has done the exact opposite by being such a Coont.

Not a humble bone in the coonts body.

Na, I love Boxing but this rematch does not excite me at all.

That said,

I hope Mundine punches 10 shades of shit out of Green and puts this to bed once and for all.

Greens been chasing him for years and chased him for the first fight.

Thanks for your thoughts Tel , but what I meant was do you think it will make money for the promoters? personally I think they are taking a huge gamble

^

If they are going to pay these Guys 10 Mil each one would not think so.

It will be shown in heaps of pubs and clubs around the country that's where the money is.

Just touching on what Terry said,Mundine is just a prick when he played Rugby League he didn't get picked to play in the Aussie team,he played the it's because i'm black card wanker, Laurie Daley was the 5/8 at the time no one was going to be picked in front of him,black or white.

Any way i hope Green punches the crap out of him.

Yeah thinking about it Bobo , maybe thats why it could be a big money earner ,every body paying to see Mundine hopefully get a pasting , a bit like the old bad guy good guy scenario eh

^

Yes we where hoping that was going to be the case last time, unfortunately Green let the whole fookin country down by just standing there covering up whilst Mundine done a job on him.

Green lost many supporters over his piss poor disappointing effort.

Especially after the pre-fight fookin hype.

Their both over 40 years old now, i just cannot get excited over this one.

If Green manages to win it it will be like, yes OK, no big deal.

Even though Australia would love to see Green really fuk up Mundane but I doubt that will happen.

Both have their Medical issues, Green has big problem with his hands now.

Silly fookers should just give it away.

They will after this last big payday.

Can't blame them for going after the big pay day though.

Why not, boxing Fans still want to see it.

I just hope Mundine don't knock Green out in the first round.

That would be Disappointing.


All that money for fook all.

Well its got you Aussie fight buffs a talkin , thats what this little thread is all about

Well go on then while we are on about Aussie fighters ,who in your opinion 's, Immigrant or other wise was the greatest Aussie fighter? .For me its a hard one to pick but I'd have to go for Jeff Fenech .

^

Fenech was simply brilliant,

A real hard bastard too, fought on with a broken hand in one fight.

Dunno, I'll think about it.

Les Darcy,Fenech,Lionel Rose,Kostya Tszyu.

^Jesus Bobo ,you got me there, I thought I knew my boxing , you got me there until I looked him up BoxRec - Les Darcy

^ My grandad & old man both fought as young blokes,Darcy was a god to them.

^ Cool, Bobo.. did you ever get into boxing ?

You should be quite talented at it - as it runs in your family.

I wonder why I got into kickboxing? I can't think of anyone in my family into boxing or such...

Although there is 1 murderer in my family, but that's a tale for another day.

Oh there's a real gooden.

Kostya Tszyu. He was also a very impressive hard core boxer. Loved watching him fight.

The outstanding thing about him is that he was brilliant person outside the ring as well, here lies the massive difference between the above boxers.

Mundine will mainly be remembered for being an arsehole.

Yeah I almost said Kostya , but Fenech swayed it for me cos he was World Champion at 3 different weights
