Mundine fought at 168 without ever dieting, which means he has always been more a 160 fighter anyway. He is much improved and could beat anyone at 160 on his night.

I think if he gets some of the big fights in the division he will be seen as a top 2 MW by end of 2009. Laugh if u like but im pretty confident in this prediction.

Thoughts, and please make them intelligent
If Sven Ottka can KO Mundine , it would be a video nasty if he fought Pavlik.
See that is a dumb post. Did Kessler KO Mundine? Just cos Mundine got KO'd in his 10th fight some 25 fights ago dont mean he is gonna get KO'd whenever he fights somenoe who can punch. Danny Green was maybe the most powerful puncher at 168 when Mundine fought him and he never got hit.

Saying that the Ottke v Mundine fight is still relevant is like saying that the Pacquiao v Singsurat fight is still relevant. Has Manny got a glass jaw cos he got sparked early in his career?

The ottke fight is often brought up by ppl who have seen little or none of Mundine fighting since...

Mundine destroyed Soliman who pushed Wright to the limit. He totally outboxed Danny Green a top 168 and 175 fighter, and was the first person before Calzaghe to seriously push Kessler. Thats right none of that counts cos he got Ko'd in his 10th fight which happened to be a title fight. He was fighting for a title when most contenders are still beating up the Charlie Zelenofs of the boxing world.
