Huh? What are the NFL players 'valid' reasons? Please tell me.

One of Mannys teams excuses was he doesn't like needles :lol:

I think your getting a bit emotional. Floyd is a piece of shit, no argument from me.

:lol: don't worry... Im not a Pacman fanboy...

I happily recognise Floyd as #1...

I've just always hated the fact that Floyds team stooped so low as to cast a fighter with absolutely no drugs history as a drugs cheat based on whacky logic.

The NFL players union have questioned the effectiveness of blood testing compared to urine testing... Apparently there's serious doubts over the validity of that type of testing so they feel there's no need to do anything other than the normal urine testing.

Which is what the commission already does...

What Manny did was remarkable, no fighter ever went through the divisions like he did. Even when he was the smaller fighter, he was man handling welterweights. Its never been done before.

So when Manny comes out and says there will be no fight if Olympic style drug testing is a condition, it raises questions.

Re NFL, pretty convenient that. I'm sure the players union are well versed in drug testing procedures and are impartial on the matter.

I remember reading that he refused to have blood tests for religious/cultural reasons, ie. drawing blood from the body takes away power.

HAHAHAHAHAHA....entertainment plus from Mundine.

My man Floyd!



My name is Anthony “The Man” Mundine! I am the uncrowned best athlete of all time! (check my resume). I was a rugby superstar before I quit at the top of my game due to racism & politics to take up boxing!

No amateur background. I wanted to be world champ … I fought fighters far more experience than me from the start. I got 6 losses (same as you) from 53 fights. I had to learn on the job as I had no amateur experience.

I believe when I’m mentally on, I can beat anybody! I’m charismatic, flamboyant, artistic, explosive athlete & fighter!

I’ve held WBA 168lb title twice the IBO middleweight, WBA interim 154lb title & reigning 154 WBC silver champion (your mandatory). I think you the best of our era & everybody wanna fight you — but I’m the wonder from down under & the only one that can solve the mayvinchi code!

So what Im trying to get at is I’m hoping to land the fight with you in Sept!

You don’t ask … you don’t get! Consider a colourful character who’s your mandatory for September. It won’t be boring before, during or after the fight!


There is no doubt Mundine was a star in the NRL and the ring, but his opinion on where he

I heard you mentioned names like Mayfield & Berto as your next opponents. Im the mandatory and that should looked at. I’ve got other attributes that none of these cats got! Makes for a good boxing spectacle both in and outta the ring. Its what the boxing fans need to see!

I revived boxing in my country. It was dead and I gave it mouth-to-mouth — and i’ve held it down for 15 years! And the Australian media doing their best to belittle me and keep me from my destiny. We have the tall poppy syndrome here. They wanna cut down the successful. And after all my achievements in two sports they still wont give me the credit. But thats cool. I already know im the best 2 sport champion ever. I dont need their validation. Thats why ima reachin out to you Floyd. Put on a Boxing spectacular.

You want show time — I am show time! Somebody the world needs to see! I’ll give you a way better go than you been getting!

It’s a 50-50 fight! Best athlete v best fighter??? Both got fast feet fast hands & fast mouth haha … or relinquish the Title as you’re preventing fighters like me in this position to take on the other champions or the bigger names in sport!

Ask Sugar Shane if I can handle the stage! Ima fan of yours but I truly believe you were put on this earth for me to beat inshallah! No disrespect just my belief …

I come from the land of the Kanagaroo where us natives shake a leg. Let’s go!

holla back

Yours sincerely,

The Man (Choc)

I'm sure they'll fight each other again soon. Both are over the hill and would see it as a final pay day.

I honestly don't see the aussie public giving a shit though. There'd be more entertaining fights down at your local tradie pub every friday night than watching those 2 fossils wrestle each other

Mundine KO again by a fighter nobody had ever heard of.
Not the first time this has happened to Choc.

I have heard of him and he is very good. Mundine knew before he went into the ring that he was hopelessly out of his depth. Still, his next fight probably sums up Aussie boxing, Green (40 yr old joke) v Mundine (40 yr old joke).

If were honest "The Man" has always been very selective in the people he fought.
Who can forget when he wanted to fight Joe Calzaghe, and when Calzaghe's camp back with an offer of $1 million and the winner takes all "The Man" went to ground.
3 losses in his last 6 fights suggests that "The Man" should just shut up and retire.
