Funny, I don't see the likes of Meninga, Campbell, Daley and co having to resort to carrying on like complete gooses to create some attention around them. I can't cop the 'he is a genuine nice guy' crap when he resorts to divisive, racial, hypocritical rants. If he was a truly genuine nice guy why does he feel he need to insult and offend his 'own' people and others who dare try and question him? If he is a truly genuine nice guy, why does he have to resort to bullying tactics against judges or media to keep them on his side? I'm sure he gives a lot of time and money to charities, many people do, but to offend and insult anyone to make a point or just to sell a boxing match is hardly what I call a nice person!Originally Posted by letsgo
Say what you want about Anthony, but those who have met him know he's nothing like what you see in front of the camera. I have met him a few times and to this day he's one of the nicer athletes I have met. Through my line of work I have met Meninga, Daley, Preston Campbell and co. Anthony was the most genuine out of the lot of them. He donates a lot of his money and time to charities and helps out with fundraisers. He does all this stuff quietly. Away from the cameras, he's really humble and actually a pretty shy guy.
Anyone who thinks he is a great boxer is completely delusional, he is fair at best and his camp have done well to pick and choose to get the best results possible. Danny Green was far from his best and anyone who has been there and had to shed weight in a short timeframe knows it severely impacts on your energy levels especially a boxing match. And Geale, well the judges in the 1st fight were either bullied or knew where their bread was buttered, anyone who knows tha game had him in front.
I had to laugh several years ago when Mundine mentioned about fighting Kelly Pavlik, he was never going to fight him, just threw his name out there to try and gain some sort of creditibility.
I have tried to like Anthony over the years but he has continually let me down in my quest to embrace him and in talking to quite a few indigenous people over the years he has actually ostracised a lot of his fellow people. The continual anti-white crusade really bothers me and is actually counter-productive against any sort of harmonisation as a nation.
Mundine 44 Wins (26 knockouts, 18 decisions), 5 Losses (2 by knockout, 3 by decision), 0 Draws
