Message: [QUOTE="Huge, post: 2458402, member: 1992"] fredie...I've watched the fight game for over thirty five years. I pay attention and know good fighters when I see them. Mundine is a good fighter with a great pedigree. His father was a better fighter, much closer to true world class. unfortunately his Dad was a bit fragile in the chin area,just like his son. What got boxing going again was not Mundine, it was a combination of two things. Firstly Jeff fenech rose to world wide attention and Pay TV took hold and needed content. Consequently boxing started earning money because it has always been popular. The reason why is simple, boxing was the worlds first sport. Fighting has always been a love for (mainly) males and formalized fights was a natural result. Mundines good without being a great fighter and he has not fought the best, his big mouth made sure that couldn't happen. He could have proven his claims had he fought in America but he was terrified to go to the USA (after 9/11) because he feared assassination. In a little pond he was a big fish but it wasn't the ocean where the true giants roamed. [/QUOTE]
