Thought I would start a thread on tonights fight.

Who's going to watch it? ME

Who are you supporting? Green

and who do you think is really going to win? Green, but wont be surprised if Green is on top and it goes the distance that it will be a drawn fight.

Hoppa wins in the first round with 27 seconds to go in his first professional fight.

He then challenged Mark Geyer (Matt Geyer's older brother) to a fight just because he has a column in RLW.

up to round 11 of 12 and maybe I have a different view.

Mundine more than likely is going to win, don't know how as Green has been the fighter on attack all night.

Mundine has got some good shots in, but IMO, Green has made more shots than mundine

Round 12, Green IMO was the better fighter all night, The annocaners were clearnly in Mundines corner.

They are saying 119 to 109 to Mundine and the judges will have the last word.

At the end of the day, two blokes got into a ring to smack eqach other out to see who will  be able to fight for a world tttle fight.

and the winner is.........

I'm so sad for Danny  :'(, I was yelling for him to just unload on Mundine so many times throughout the fight, I hate the way Mundine was being a jackass during the fight  >:( - he's no way ever going to be an Ali & should stop trying to be a bloody show pony (damn smartarse  ::)).
Hopefully this won't be the last fight of Danny's career.  :-\

I've been asked to post this after the match.....

Of the people here to watch the match, we have a 90% giving the match to Green to Mundine, based on performance.

One of those people has been the Commonwealth Boxing Champion after beating Barry Michael during the 80's....so he would know what he is talking about.

SW, the problem with Danny was most of his hits were body shots & Mundine laid many more hits to Danny's head  :(
Unfortunately the head shots are worth more than body & Danny was also landing a few 'lower' body hits too.
It's a bummer but I don't really think it was an unfair decision tho.

*Head shots not necessarily 'worth' more but you know what I mean  ;)

Very true Tigger.

We were a bit concern about the commentators as it was rare to hear them say Green did anyting. It was a great fight and it will be interesting to see if there is a re-match.

The under card was a crack up. Hoppa challenging MG to a fight......um, your meant to be a professional now Hoppa, there are rules regarding that.

And that NZ guy in the second fight that got hit once and had a delayed drive was good, especially on TV.  :shock: :shock:
