Thank God, the most over hyped, rated Aussie Fighter of recent times has retired.

Bit harsh mate.
He was certainly no legend of the ring, but his results reflected his ability. Good fighter not a great one.
Good luck to him in retirement. Hopefully other opportunities come his way.

Sure is. But i would still favour him to beat RJJ and Erdei.

Green didn't have much natural ability. Even he admitted that. You have to respect his heart for getting in there with some good opponents...

Yeah dehydration got him bad didn't it and was never the same, but yeah a likeable character who had a massive heart. I hope he has some good luck in his retirement.

It's a shame that heart was absent during the Mundine fight.

It was there mate. He was simply outclassed. And after those countless big right hands he took, going 12 showed heart.

I think the loss was more cause of a lack of talent, and his opponent had some talent.

Im putting more focus on Briggs now with Danny retiring...

Danny didn't throw enough leather in the Mundine fight, he was to worried about being countered. He didn't go to the line in that fight.

If he did? Do you think he could have won though?

Im thinking he could have made it more competitive. But im not sure whether he could have won.

I don't think he could have won, maybe if he landed a big right or something, but Green should have brought the fight to Mundine, but he didn't.

Better put the crack pipe down, I think. That place wasn't even close to Half full.

On paper Green did a bit, but on the international scene/level he didn't really shine.

Thats what we need. We need someone to shine like Kostya did.

green and mundine are opposties in almost every single way,

Mundine fights cab drivers, green always fought good fighters

mundine had all the skill, Green had almost none he could just take a punch

mundine looks loose and relaxed in the ring while Green looks so tight it like he flexin all fight

THEY EVEN LIVE ON DIRECT OPPOSITES OF THE COUNTRY!!!

u gotta give green probs for actually wanting to go sumwhere wit he career but unlike mundine

Exactly. At least you see it how it is.
I think some people just believe what they want to believe with Danny Green.
