I am just interested to see if any other people from other countries are getting any or much info on this Fight
Cause down here in the land of OZ, it is huge, thats all thats being talked about.
Even Our Prime Minister and Politicians are putting there 2 cents in about this fight.
Just curious who you think will win and is this getting much world wide coverage, (Even though it is only a WBA title Eliminator)
Ahhh.... 117 bucks won to me! As predicted mundine by unanimous. Great atmosphere for a fight, weird fighter intros though. The walk to the ring was ages :/
This was basically a replica of Calzaghe vs Lacy. The boxer made the puncher look like a fool. The reason the ring walks took so long was because the bout was held on a footballfield it was a 200 meter walk to get to the ring.
Yeah what he said......
Here's the round by round guys:
Round 1: Green comes out pressing forward throwing while Mundine dances around the ring. Green the aggressor landing afew shots but Mundine taking most on the gloves and not throwing much back in return. Not much action, feeling out round goes to Green
Round 2-12: Green misses, Mundine connects.
Mundine UD 12
hahahahaha

Mundine schooled Green.
Hate to say it but Green couldnt compete with the speed and counter punching of Mundine.
Mundine Kessler II
Sorry guys, would have done a round by round, but watched this at a buddies place.
Green just doesn't look as sharp as he used to.
If the 'old' version of Green turns up, he will win on points, as Mundine will go into his shell.
If the lethargic, jaded version vs Beyer II turns up, easy win for Mundine.
I am Hoping for a close fight, i think Mundine has the speed and power to overwhelm Danny Green, but Green's Chin is quite good and Mundines isnt the best.
I am Going out on a limb here and saying if it goes the distance green will win he has the heart to, but i think mundine will get the stoppage late
sorry mate, mundine's chin is granite...he stood up and took Kessler's best shots....his KO loss was to the temple.
He is only susceptible to flash knockdownds sometimes due to his balance, but I can't see Green doing on as he is too slow and robotic.........
It'll be a good fight and to be honest, I want both to win......

The fight atmosphere alone will be thrilling and electric, events like this are oh so rare-I wish I could watch it live!
It sounds like a U pickem fight-but Im rooting for Danny Green!
Yeh mate I'm a Melbourne boy.
Thing is, though... the 'world' title he won was only a 'world' title because the WBA appointed Ottke the 'super' champion. Therefore, Mundine was 'world' champion, but 2nd in the WBA rankings. Figure that one out...
It's like Gatti being the WBC champ when Tszyu was the 'emeritorious' champ or whatever - Tszyu was the real world champ, not Gatti.
yes mate, i'm a melbourne boy also..........
yes we know his title was the wba regular title, but to his credit, he beat a top contender for it!.....also, he fought ottke in his 10th or 11th pro fight and actually had no sparring partners for this fight and he actually had ottke behind on points, until ottke's fluke ko!...
he may not have achieved much, but there aren't many boxers out there who have became world champions with only a couple years of boxing....if you don't know, he was a world class rugby league player and then he turned to boxing...and became world champion....very very impressive!
not to mention he ran the hundred in under 11 seconds at high school made australian schoolboys for rugby union and had a basketball contract offered to him.
