I know they are not well known but they are very good quality fighters and this win should be congratulated.
You being serious World Title? The shitty IBO, please Mundine is a fraud mate hes been milking the Oz market for far to long if he was serious about being a proper world class fighter he would of fought someone in the last three years, he has been exposed twice though by Ottke and Kesler so you cant blame him.
Mate I agree with most of what you say but a few points of argument. Mundine was doing very well against Ottke and was probably winning the fight untill the KO but it was very early on in his fight career. I agree he struggled against Kessler but he gave an ok fight. He looked a bit gun shy to me though. He also lost to Manny Siacca I think in a similar way to how he lost to Kessler. But the comment was more about Geale than Mundine. I was personally hoping Geale would pull off a win, i like him much more than Mundine and believe he could achieve a lot in the sport and do a lot for it's appeal here. Geale is a quality fighter and I hope he goes on to bigger and better things than Mundine. There's no doubt Mundine is at the end of his career so he's trying to milk all he can and I agree that his boxing can't catch up with his mouth unfortunately. He will have to back it up now he is moving to the US to fight and if he does great if not no surprise there. I would much prefer Geale to do well get well known and win a real title. My issue was with Geale being called no-one. He's not.
