A punch drunk boxer like all the rest - didn't know when to quit -
he could have a bleed on the brain and go down badly tomorrow
boxing is a dangerous sport.

His doctor should have never let him fight - it's a scandal.

Correct. A 43yr old against a 30yr old? Raven thought the fight might have lasted longer but the result is unsurprising.

Age has stuff all to do with it, Bernard Hopkins was still winning world titles at 48-49

Mundine never did well against the good fighters in their prime

A lucky punch, or Mundine has finally lost his touch?

I still reckon one of the best ever passages of punch dodging was Mohammad Ali in this one:

It was just a payday for Mundine. 2 minutes of work. He won't care about the result. I am going to accuse him of taking a dive.

Fans left unsatisfied as Jeff Horn completely obliterates Anthony Mundine


Anthony Mundine said he was a “caged lion” before fighting Jeff Horn but the 43-year-old looked like a pussy cat as fans were duped.


That was the biggest fight in Australian boxing? Really?

After months of build-up and silly storylines — and a mind-numbingly long undercard that pushed the main event back until almost midnight — Jeff Horn monstered Anthony Mundine in 96 seconds in their fight in Brisbane.
Mundine said he was a “caged lion” after grabbing Horn by the throat during a tense face-off, but as soon as the bell rang he turned into a timid house cat.

It was an anticlimax on a night that had fans frustrated as every fight on the undercard — bar a fourth-round stoppage of Horn’s younger brother Ben — went the distance.

The delay saw the singing of the national anthem scrapped to save time and to ensure the event didn’t breach Suncorp Stadium’s curfew.

In the end it mattered little as Horn needed less than two minutes to dismantle The Man and bring end to his illustrious career.

Viewers were left stunned after another night of Aussie boxing that failed to deliver.

Why didn't he hold his gloves up to protect his face?
I didn't even see the basics in this fight.

It was the right to the lower left body which hurt Mundine...and that brought his hands down.
