Latest news from Denmare are Kessler will fight Mundine in sep/now.Kessler has improved since the fight against Mundine,if you have seen Kessler vs Lucas you will give me right
mundine really impressed me against green (even though green is a porr calibre opponent) IMO he has improved alot since the kessler fight. Its would be very close but im still itching towards kessler.
Green is a better opponent than a clapped out Eric Lucas (KO 6 Green) or a Brian McGee, Sakio Bika, Omar Sheika, Dale Westerman and a lot of guys the Europeans have been defending against.
I think Mundine has his work cut out to beat Kessler but you can’t say his last opponent wasn’t better than Froch/Beyer’Kessler’s last defences. No disrespect to any of the boxers mentioned but if Mundine fought McGee or particularly Westerman he’d be pelted with rotten fruit by fans and mocked by Australian journalists.
His style reminds me very very very much of Roy Jones Jr. Down to the taunts and even the scratching of his nose in the post fight interview ;D Maybe someone will make a vid collage of Mundine and Jones ;D
He wants to be some sort of Aboriginal Ali/Jones figure. He’s not the sharpest tool in the shed though. His developed a strange sort of hybrid Ali/hip-hop manner of speech which sounds ridiculous as he’s not that articulate and no-one else in Australia talks like that. Even Naz didn’t sound as silly. That being said, he’s probably the best pure athlete around middle/super middle at the moment.
He imitates Roy’s clowning- he even used the behind the back punch that Jones used on Kelly on the guy he fought to warm up for Green. He’s got the reflexes and a lot of handspeed but he hasn’t got the variety of punches or the power at 168 that Jones had. Mundine is more defensive-minded than Jones was. He relies on his jab and and straight right to win him fights. Most of his big shots are counters as he isn’t as comfortable leading.
Mundine can do whatever he wants…he can emmulate whatever Jones or whoever else does…but Wacko ARE going to agree with jangeorg for once…he fwocks with Kess again…he get’s his ass handed to him.
If the injury that Kess just got doesn’t effect him that is.
I think that Kess just beat a guy that Green knocked out years ago. Mundine just beat up Green and it looks like he did it easily. I did see something on youtube that showed the Kessler fight, looked a little like Mayweather vs. Judah. Mundine could beat Beyer because the Green fight was one sided enough that why should there be a rematch.
mundine pretty much did wat ali did against foreman except didn’t knock him out ( did u see that bit where green slipped and mundine gave him a few taps but he did still outfight green no question. personally i thought the fight had nothign in it. hardly any punches :-\ well from green there were a few but he missed em all
yeah mundine does have som hand speed but no chin at all once hes down id say hes down. and his additude annoys me a bit bit of an insult to ali really beoming muslim poking his touneg out to teh camera..taunting..hands low..bounding around..i dunno i just dont like mundine much for som reason :-\ i liked ali and hes trying real hard 2 be liek him. ive seen green fight much betta tho against some german dude i think!? was all over him.
btw if any1 wanted to download the full fight try bittorrent i got it on my comp and its worth having
Man…what the hell? He has no chin? He took shots from kessler and green didnt just hit nothing all night, he did hit mundine. He never went down against either of them. Whats wrong with his taunting, he gets trained by his dad and ROY JONES SNR and he is good friends with roy jones jr and possibly idolises him as much as he does ali. He got the speed to back up his taunts and he got the skill to back up his mouth. Even after he beat green there are still guys who cant give him credit. Green tried to pressure mundine and tried to hurt mundine but he couldnt land. The reasonw why he fought better against beyer is coz beyer aint as good as mundine.
that was painful to watch…Both of these fighters need to run if they ever see Calzaghe coming their way…and the fact that Mundine went 12 with Kessler on strengthens my feelings that Joe Cal would destroy Kessler…
Stupid logic from you once again. Evans Ashira, Kabary Salem (he even floored Calzaghe) and Rick Thornberry went 12 rounds against superman Calzaghe but none of them would most likely last 12 rounds against Kessler. Rick Thornberry was by the way KOed by Mundine… - see that is logic ;D
