Anthony Mundine is a technically gifted fighter. Probably one of the best jabs in the business. His skills compare favourably to many Mexican fighters except that he has no real power and this has been evident throughout his career with the number of points decisions he has had. Given that lack of real stopping power he has done remarkably well with his career and managed it well enough to stay clear of fights and fighters where he would be stopped. And I don't think that a lack of courage - anyone who steps through the ropes is courageous. Anthony is obviously smarter than people give him credit for which is also exemplified by his marketing - the man people love to hate. People pay to watch him hoping he will get hurt but he is smarter enough to choose fighters where there is less risk of that happening and gets great pay days.
ST, you are an astute judge. Choc was a talent both in footy and boxing. He was sharp in the ring, but his biggest assett was / is his mouth. He has judged his fights well, and has made a mint doing it. Contraversy = $$$
He has mastered that.
Yesterday he lost that fight, but the Man continues to create dialogue thereby building a brand.
People will either love or hate him, and that is a recipe for success.
Well done Beale and good luck moving forward. Its a tough gig.
Choc, you should have stayed on stage and acknowledged defeat.
Great fight guys ...
