If you are watching the fight tonight, can you please seriously tell me..

WHY??

:huh

PARTICULARLY those that are buying the fight, or going out of the way to watch it.

(If you've got nothing better to do, I can understand)

I'm watching it because I got the fight for free, I rang Fox about the blackout yesterday and after a while this is the agreement we came to. I asked if I could have the Green v Drews card instead but they weren't having it.

It'd be around 11 I'd say. Ten undercard fights.:patsch
Yeah you should go for a stroll down there, it wouldn't be too hard to come across a free ticket.

I guess absolutely no one is paying to watch Mundine's latest farcical bout and we'll all have to read about it in the papers tomorrow!!

ROFL!! They just showed a guy on Sky News try to enter the ring Tszyu style and fall flat on his arse and hurt himself before his fight even began!!!!!

And then they showed him putting his arm around one of the ring girls and hold the ropes up for her so she could climb out!!!

:rofl:rofl:rofl

yeah just saw that lol classic fell over the ropes fell off the chair and fell off the ropes again lol maybe he wanted to give the people who went or booked the fight something worht seeing.

Yeah I saw that on fox news also. Did he acutally win the fight or were all his celebrations related to the delayed concussion suffered from that ill advised rope jump?

I have never seen it before....Was because of that fact Hatton v Mayweather was on Sunday morning here and the replay takes place at Sunday Night so he had no choice but to fight on Monday....Why not the following saturday WHO KNOWS.

Fox sports news has just reported hopoate and solomon haumono won their respective fights.

A clip was shown of Haumono's fight. He Ko'd Malato(?) with a beautiful overhand right.

sad part is mate i think everyone can tip every fight and who will win lol did anyone also see in the news paper about the POSSIBLE match with WAYNE THE KING CAREY vs WILLIE THE DICKHEAD MASON?

i can understand this fight as a stay busy fight for mundine but the fact the WBA let there title be on the line and this classified as an official wba 168 title fight is unbeleivable.

tocker pudwell is fuming he was not called instead.

quick tip on how to make a quick $100
put your house/plane/boat on mundine to win and at 1,000000 to 1 on you get a nice quick profit.

if mundine loses

kill him and then yourself.

Monday night/Wednesday night?? What's the difference??

Most of Mundine's cards have been on a week night, Wednesday!!

News Flash .. Mundine has won already .. no need to kill yourself if you bet everything on him!!

CHCO WINs 4th round KO

sean

12-10-2007, 09:03 AM

Why the hell is Hopoate fighting on the Mundine card?? The guy lost two fights in a row, one of them was on his pro-debut and has been shown to be an embarassment as a boxer even if he hasn't yet tried to stick his fingers where the sun don't shine!! His last win was against a guy who was 0-8!! Mundine is scraping the bottom of the barrel not only for his opponents but for his undercard!!!

it is rumored it was a showcase for hopoate who is due to be mundines next opponent after the buenos aires cab driver.

but now hopoate actually won team mundine are not sure .

i went to the pub to watch it as i had nothing to do, otherwise i would be on here for them 3 hours reading everyones replies.... the fights were shocking.... to a certain extent only 2 fights really deserved something of an applause, and that was the kane mackay vs daniel baff fight which was great toe to toe battle and hoppa getting his revenge on fitzgerald and being the first to stop him....
hoppa has improved his movement, however he doesnt jab and i dont think completely listens to his corner but he is very strong....
haumono needs to step it up way to strong and powerful i feel for anyone in australia...... except for maybe a mark de mori or leapai.....
hoppa's most interesting moment came when after his fight he yelled something out to a group in the crowd and was really saying osmething no idea what??? would be interesting to find out all in all a crap card.... main event dont get me started shocking.........

Yer it's a funny world where you have to pay the same amount to see the pound for pound champ fight and a dickhead who thinks he is. Oh well 07' has thrown up some awesome fights with katsidis coming to real prominence and some historically significant mayweather bouts, hopefully 08' gives us some more gems and less of this mundine shit.

Hmmm

12-10-2007, 09:46 AM

Hmmm's 2 cents:

Mitrevski Jr - Where did they manage to dig up the clown he fought against???!!! My f*#king goodness!!! He starts walking around with the ring girls between rounds. Clumsy Fool!!! But to be honest, he totally took the limelight away from Peter. Everyone will remember this fight for the Bozo Thai guy.

Hoppa. Improving but will never be anywhere near world class. Sorry Dino. There is no point in any fighter totally puffing themselves out in the first 3 rounds. They cant all be butterbean! But Hoppas defence is on the improve.

Haumono. Good easy win, but he really does need to step it up for the next fight. Cant wait to see him facing some quality opposition. He throws his rights with lightning speed.

Choc --- Meh. Did anyone expect that Monobrow to win? Seriously? Didnt trouble choc once throughout the fight. But one thing can be said, Choc's uppercuts have never looked better.

I walked past the SEC at around 9:30 and talked to a few guys in the smoking area and they ended up giving me some free tickets so me and the missus went. It was pretty cool, I've never been to a boxing fight before. Hearing the punches thud home gives it that extra element that is lost when watching it on tv. Haumono's KO looked great.

Hoppa looked totally dominant in his win. I can't believe he lost to him the first time. Haumono's KO looked great, but his opponent was a walking corpse.

Mundine looked alright I guess. Got the job over pretty quick and didn't really get into trouble.

yep , you do get a better idea of speed/movement /power when you watch a fight live .
i was lucky enough to live about 4 miles from the york hall which had boxing fortnightly and i went for about 10 years.
