The secret of Mundine's money-making skill
http://www.sportsnut.com.au/category.php?intid=7
Anthony Mundine, the greatest self-promoter in Australian sports history, is the first to admit that his brash public persona is cultivated to sell tickets.
MUNDINE'S ALI IMPERSONATIONS WORK. FOR A REALLY BIG OPPONENT- CALZAGHE OR B-HOP OR ROY JONES - HE COULD DARW 60,000 TO 80,000 PEOPLE AT SYDNEY'S OLYMPIC STADIUM

That's all well and good but none of them would ever step foot on Australian soil even for a holiday ;D
His only hope is a Kessler rematch which would be a farcical fight seeing as they are both WBA champion. If it went to the cards the announcer would sure have a hard time announcing the winner, 'and the NEW supermiddleweight champion......and STILL the supermiddleweight champion...' ::**

Maybe but money speaks all languages. Maybe B-Hop ort Joe would like to prove themselves on the world stage like Ali, going and beating champs all around the globe.
If the money's there I'm sure they'd travel.

I don't believe he went, I think they moved the ESPN studio over to Wales.
That would explain why he said he wasn't going to watch the Taylor Spinks fight whilst he was 'in America' ;)

Yep, they built a New York movie set for Calzaghe in Wales and he never left!
I don't believe he has ever been seen outside of Cardiff, he has a stand in for all other engagements.
It's quite possible that Calzaghe might not exist at all!!!! Like the moon landing hoax movement, Calzaghe could well be a myth.

Maybe he fell over in a forest and no-body saw it?
