I agree Eagle - unfortunately it is a sad indictment on the Australian boxing public that Mundine can make the money he does fighting his mates, as he did last night and carrying him for 12 rounds, or some sacrificial lamb from Argentina.

I refuse to watch Mundine unless he's fighting somebody decent - the last fight I watched was the second Soliman fight and he looked sensational. Which makes it all the more sad that he is wasting his prime years.

Lets face it, Mundine doesn't care about his legacy or fighting the best guys out there, he's worried about his bottom line. That's why he's chasing a fight with Danny Green to pocket himself another few million when the fights he should be chasing are against Calzaghe and/or Kessler.

Mundine is making a fool out of Australian boxing supporters and laughing all the way to the bank. More power to him - you are a long time retired in this game. The guy wants to make maximum dough for minimum risk - who am I to argue? He has a family to feed, how he works is his business.
