    Evidently not Australian network,lol
    But they offer Lara some of that Mosley money, he should do it
    And risk getting robbed?

    I just noticed this article called Lara the WBA world champ and before his fight with Trout it was reported that it would be for the title. But the rankings still have him listed as interim last I checked.

      It doesn't make a difference to Mundine
      But I think Lara is down for good money... or if Mundine wants him so bad, he comes to the U.S.
      Schaeffer might do it just because because he doesn't like Lara too much

          Mate Australian's understand the rules of boxing, Mundine is one of the most despised fighters in the country. Also The IBO title is not a 'world' title we know that. But with all the politics in boxing it's still an achievement. I mean you can have 3 WBA champs in the one division surely holding an IBO version of the world title is ok right?

            YEah they need to give Lara the damn belt if he don't already own it. I hope Lara beats down Mundine brutally for him "stopping" Mosley via back spasms. Then Lara will be an australian legend

              It really makes sense to have a super champion and an interim champion, but no regular.

              I thought the case for the interim was in the case the regular champion is gone or unable to defend, the interim champ would be elevated. Just happened to Omar Figgy.

              Then I remembered it's the WBA and they need to give it to somebody else

                i was "not" implying that Aussies dont know boxing my apologies if it did. I was implying that due to lack of "stars", guys who are more than a world champion is why Mundine gets to hog the lime light. Also going from one sport to another is a big deal and that makes him a bigger star even though i myself dont like him.

                As for IBO you have to agree that its held higher in Australia than it is anywhere else maybe South.A. Dib, Ndou, Green, Mundine and Geale all thought they were legit world champs and im sure most ppl fell for it cuz most ppl who watch boxing r casuals and dont care cuz they just wanna watch a fite thats my MMA is getting big cuz its more of a real fight. Same in Canada i can win WBU and ppl will believe me. No doubt its an accomplishment as my 10 cent amateur trophies mean the world to me so i can imagine wat a pro belt means, but its not a world title. Ofcourse hardcores like me and you know the difference

                  I'm sure Lara would appreciate the payday.
