I started a thread with this title after DG beat RJJ. I explained how I thought DG's anihalation of RJJ would actually hinder any progress he could make on the world stage as he was a high risk/low reward fighter to fight outside of Australia.
There were mixed answers on that particular thread with some saying DG's stock are as high as ever now and that big fights would come his way.
That was 5months ago, and DG's next "big fight" after Roy was a tough travelling x world champ in Manny Siaca. And after these credentials I still wouldn't classify this bout as a "big fight".
DG destroyed him in 3 rounds, so again I have to ask you guys out there what next for DG?! I'd imagine B-Hop is well and truly out of the picture and won't want any of Green, but the commentators down here still seem to think that DG will get some big fights in the cruiserweight division around the world! I'm not too sure, for one I can't think of any big name that will step up to fight him, and DG doesn't like to travel as he feels he is worth every penny here is Australia. My guess here is DG will still chase a rematch with Anthony Mudnine as this is his best option financially and probly his best opportunity to avenge his 2006 loss to "The Man".
On a side note, alot had been made about Roy's allegations about DG's hand warps and most of it was put towards Roy being a bad loser. It was even brought up here as a thread. And though most of us do tend to feel that Roy was just making more excuses for the loss someone pointed out that after fights, while almost every boxer takes their gloves off immediately after fights, DG and others who may have loaded gloves (eg. Margarito) keep them on. I never noticed this observation till looking back at some of DG's fights and even tonight, while Siaca's gloves were being removed in the ring immediately after the fight DG kepts his on, and kept it on right through post fight interviews, photoshoots etc.
Whatta u fink guys, who nest for DG and are his gloves loaded or is he using illegal had wrapping tape?
