    Default Mundine Targets Cotto?!

    This one is apparently old news that has (unfortunately) has now resurfaced!

    This is from June: Anthony Mundine Targets Miguel Cotto, Antonio Margarito - Boxing News

    This is Today: Anthony Mundine Eyes Miguel Cotto After Stopping Waters - Boxing News

    I didn't even know Mundine was fighting at 154 It seems like not so long ago, he was fighting at 168. It's not often you see a fighter doing that

    Yeah he's been trying to secure a decent fight in the US for a while. Moving down in weight seems to be his strategy and wants a go at Cotto. Don't see what's in it for Cotto though unless a mandatory is forced, but he doesn't have to take it i guess....

    It always seemed that Mundine had a tough time of getting any decent fight in the US...

    The only thing he could have done different early on is decide, "if i'm going to fight bums, i'll fight U.S. bums.... in the U.S."

    Take out a mid level gatekeeper or a couple of notable Journeymen and he could have been looked at for a fight with Cotto at some stage... No chance now though...

    Make a couple more semi-healthy pay cheques here in Oz and hang up the gloves...

    and start wearing "I had a 10 year boxing career for which I was the best that ever lived, but all I got was this t-shirt"...

    Too bad for Mundine that no one gives a fuck about him. I guess that's what happens when you spend your entire career squandering your talents and fighting bums. Tough break .

    I don't like Anthony Mundine, but to be fair to him he was a novice then. Only having like 10 pro fight's ? i think it was. But he was winning the fight, and he got caught by a temple shot. A bit of a fluke really.

    Considering Anthony Mundine took Mikkel Kessler's best shots for 12 rounds, who hits alot harder than Sven Ottke.

    I just don't understand Anthony Mundine, he has some good skills. But he's wasted his career fighting Sam Soliman 3 bloody times, and taking on cab drivers and nobodies.

    And now he's moving down two weightclasses ? very strange move. Anthony Mundine has nobody but himself to blame, and he will go down as another wasted talent.

    Which is a shame because he could actually be the most skillful fighter, to have ever of come out of Australia.

    to be fair to mundine at the time ottke had every single resource at his power including the ref, judges etc as he had throughout his career while mundine was a young guy impressing many up until he fell victim of his own naivety

    i like mundine, but to suggest he would have a chance against an elite level fighter like cotto is ridiculous
    one dangerous horrible bloke

    We saw you,your Okkte.

    and raised you,your Cotto.

    Echols and Green were much bigger and hit a touch harder.

    Cottos intensity and work rate combined with his power and angles thats another thing,he should eat Mundine at a lower weight, but we were talking about chin and what he can take.

    I thought Antwaon would of killed him, I got that wrong.

    Green I never thought could time him correctly and catch him cold and hard from straight out in front as he does.
