The Grand Master and one of the greatest of this era will smash PPV records :P

Short notice opponents can be either a gift or a curse..they may be lesser talented than the person they are replacing but you don't have time to properly train to use your strengths against them. For some reason it seems though that fill-in guys end up looking better than they should.

Winner gets Money May. Seems fair.

Mundine dethroned Mosley who is a legend and we all know "when you beatttt a layginddd you becommmee a laygind". This Clottey fight will cement Mundine's legacy as p4p ATG.

I'd actually consider Clottey a much better fighter than Carson Jones and would bet my house he will whoop Mundine
