id like to see him fight shane cameron, but not a bob rematch, bob has had his chance.

i hate the WBF but its not a bad step for hoppa atm.

Good to see him having a go at least.
What the fucks Haumono doing these days? He's had a few more years in the sport than Hoppa and he's still toying around with domestic stiffs.

I agree.
Solo needs to get active & in the ring asap.

Smart move by Hoppa's people, a rematch with Bob would be a completely different fight now that Bob has gone back to his old trainer Hyder, he basicly trained himself for the last fight and it showed.
If Hoppa is going to step up to a fight with Cameron he will definately be shortening his career.

Yes i think some of us are thinking the same way mate.

Bob leaving Hyder was a stupid move, Although they might not have had the best relationship for different reasons, hyder hooked big bob up with a couple of (what i would believe to be) decent paydays, fighting guys like valuev, danny williams and matt skelton gave him some recognition and a chance to be in with top competition.
What did fenech give him apart from a defence of his title against hoppa?

Well done Hoppa for giving it a go with his limited boxing skills. He puts Haumono to shame.

''However, two other possible opponents are James Toney, the former American world champion who threatened to shoot Aussie champion Danny Green after a vicious sparring session in Los Angeles''
WHAT THE fck??I saw that sparring session on youtube , but why did he threaten to shoot him???

Tommy wouldn't be allowed in the country let alone sanctioned for a fight here.

ranser

12-08-2008, 07:01 AM

Cos Danny took the piss out of him.

toney was handling green with ease. all he was doing was lying on the ropes, letting green hit him, then he would hit back with a few monster shots and green would get wobbled.

And what would you expect a roided up Heavyweight to do against a guy who was a super middle at the time? Green showed a lot of guts sparring him and snorting like Porky Pig :)

If Tommy wants the fight i will personally make sure he gets into the country...lol..

I would still pay a fortune to see his lefthook live...Even with aids he would own Hoppa in 3rounds easily...

Have you seen Tommy lately? Unfortunately it's not 1992 anymore. Tommy was very exciting but he's all over now.

Unfortunately, the Australasian Titles are not recently formed but have been around for a couple of years now. The IBF do them as well and I have to say I am vehemently opposed to them. We were approached to offer the same to which we refused
A) One regional title is enough

B) The Australasian Title is a piece of local boxing history. The title has always been contested between the National Champs of both OZ and NZ and is actually in the ANBF rules

I would like to see these titles shit-canned altogether

Yeah, but Toney was trashtalking and Greeny started giving it back as good and Toney couldn't handle it and got the shits :yep

Green also landed a few good shots on Toney, nothing to really worry him, but enough to make the fat cunt think he wasn't getting the respect he thought he deserved from Green.

Green looked like a skinny 16 year old in there with the big black Toney :lol:

Yeah, and what the hell was fenech and green thinking to go over there and spar Toney anyways, I cant see how it could have helped his prep for a fight and at the time there would have been heaps of good super middles/light heavys he could have sparred for some good prep.. I always though it was a strange choice

I think good hard work will never be bad for a fighter.

I agree strange choice but.

No chance of that happening.Meehan is alot higher then the likes of Hoppa on the pecking order..

Meehan is coming off a pretty impressive ko win over ranked opposition where as Hoppa had a war with a 40plus year old d level heavyweight in mirovic..

I want Hoppa vs Morrison...Bring him over.Who cares if he has aids..:bbb

Good for Hoppa,atleast hes looking at the big picture,theres some lucrative fights for him here at heavy,but if your in the game why not go and test yourself against world class fighters,he may pull up short but atleast hes having a go.....

Hoppa should be holding onto the Aussie Title and defending it a few times to get some experience, he never had an amateur career and other than Mirovic all of his opponents have more losses than wins.
The only reason he would give up the Aussie Title and look for the Money fights is if he didnt think he would win the defences Leapai, Briggs, Cronje even Michael Kirby would be a risk.
The fight with Cameron wont happen because Cameron will be beaten by Tua.
