    Fck.
    To be fair Mundine is one of the few guys that Sven Ottke can proudly claim that he convincingly beat him. By knockout as well

      Really?

      I don't see Taylor taking a fight where he is out of his element for a change especially after 2 back to back losses. Roy Jones on the other hand has fought Anthony Handshaw and Prince Badji Ajamu in 2 of his last 3 fights... I mean WHO!?

      Roy Jones has to build his career back up which he is doing steadily while Taylor has some what redeemed himself by going 12 rounds with a guy who brutally KOed him in the fight before. I can't see Lou Dibella letting him anyway.

        This is the **** that annoys me.

        No response needed.

        We both know he was an amateur when they fought.

        ****ty post.

        Watch some of his recent fights. I would pick him over Taylor.

        And i would pick Green over RJJ (glass chin).

          No doubt Mundine is a new fighter from the one who fought Ottke. It was kinda ****** throwing him in there with only 10 fights, even if it was Ottke!

              Well i asked legitimate questions here.

              Would Taylor fight mundine in Australia. Considering there is a title on the line. And Taylor wanted to move up to SMW.

              Also with RJJ and Green. Since Green said he is after a fight with RJJ.

              And then people start saying they have never heard of these fighters before.

              But its crap. I hate people that only focus on American boxing. There are a lot of talented fighters out there not getting there dues because there not fighting in America.

              Sure there not gonna be as well known as Hopkins. But saying there nobodies and people have never heard of Green and Mundine is a joke. Because they have titles which fighters like Winky, Taylor etc do not have at the moment.

                I gave you a legitimate answer and a true one. If you want to be known and regarded as the best you fight in the States, i didnt make the rules, thats just the way it is. Roy Jones and Jermaine Taylor will be precieved as the better fighters regardless of belts, so why go to Australia? Jones and Taylor dont need to have belts to be in big fights, so with that said, I see no reason for them to go to Australia. Now if the fighters you named want to be considered relevant and make big money, they have to come show their worth in the US, like i said may not be fair, but thats the way it is.

                  Well than why is everyone making Calzaghe a favourite in the Hopkins fight? He hasn't fought in the USA?

                  That just proves your logic wrong.

                  You need to recognize the skill of fighters abroad. As well. Your point is valid but also wrong in ways.

                    He might be an amatuer, but its funny you call RJJ glass chin when Ottke has 6 KO's in 34 fights, yet the featherfisted guy who got about 15 controversial decisions KO'd him, just a reminder. And lets be honest here, if he wasn't australian you wouldn't give a **** either, ask yourself that question for a moment.

                      Could you see RJJ going 12 rounds with Kess?

                      Judging a pro on his 10th fight, when he has no amateur career is childish. We all know it.

                      Geese, your younger than i thought if Hanshaw and Tito fooled you.
