Mundine's public persona is a pain in the arse. But he's a good fighter. And smart with his selection and timing of opponents. The Green fight was a big payday for both. Sure Green had to drop weight for the fight but that's not why he lost out. Mundine is just too fast and too good for him.

i'm not gonna disagree with you there at all shasta. choc is an immensly gifted fighter. i really enjoy watching his fights. the mouth gets him publicity. which has got to be a movitation to keep running it all the time...
but i wouldnt count green out just in a rematch. he will work to neutralise the advantages mundine has over him. because those advantages cost him the fight last time.
my point in my other post though was in reference to the fact that green didnt look well when him and mundine were fighting. he was slower than normal and he wasnt as fit as he usually is. his punches also didnt have the effect that they normally did, because they werent supported by the muscle that they usually were
Ok I can here it now more welsh hype from WRF but while these two contenders were slugging it out there was a real champion out there that neither could have or would have held a candle to.
Yep the Welshman Joe Calzaghe. Who I hear you ask.

Random thoughts of someone whose taken too many hits. I used to box got a Cauliflower bum to prove it.
Neither Green or Mundine are world quality. Kostya was , Darchinyan is, although neither of them are Australian either.
Kostya and Vic are as Australian as vegimite! How do you think any of us got here?
A "shoe bitch" knows these things.
