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.

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

Because he is a 43 year old "has-been" who was just there for a payday. I would get into the boxing ring to fight Horn, if I was guaranteed a 5-figure pay for a loss. But, I would not get the television audience to see my ass handed to me by Jeff.

I like both Mundine and Horn. I don't have an issue with either of them.

Most people in Australia couldn't care less about Anthony Mundine. He got boring years ago. The only interest people still have in his boxing career is seeing him get knocked out. That's the absolute truth . A few people like him but not many. People all over Australia are cheering right now.

I listened to talk back radio last night. As much as I only listen to the radio for the sake of making myself feel superior over others, one caller had the right idea. Mundine made boxing in Australia relevant. If it was not for Mundine, boxing in Australia would be a non-event. I won't be happy about sport in Australia until Australians start producing winning results on a consistent manner. But Mundine did keep boxing an event to watch. Forget about his last fight.

When's the rematch? Cheesy

There won't be one: everyone knew he'd lost his reflexes when the bell went.. no betting house would ever accept any rematch as a legitimate way to con people out of their money: it's over bruther--> its over!

I was a mundine fan... he was great !!!

Cheesy

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.

Every amateur boxer in the country saw him without reflexes from the first bell... and wondered why he was allowed fight!

IT WAS/IS A SCANDAL!

I AGREE!!

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
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernard_Hopkins

Mundine never did well against the good fighters in their prime

Anthony Mundine is not Bernard Hopkins..

You're talking about a very rare exception to a very well defined trend: that doesn't mean there is no well defined trend!

Learn some statistics buddy

A good article from the West Australian

that is a bit of a stretch

comparing Muhammad Ali with Anthony Mundine...

hilarious..

Ali did suffer terrible racism as a young amature Boxer...and probably his childhood... he was so disappointed he threw his Olympic Medal in the river.....

all Anthony did was spit the dummy and sulk...

no sir.. there is no comparison mundine has tippid a lot of spiteful comments opver the years yeah yeah we all know he pretends its to get bums on seat..

did Ali ever stoop to that level.???? I dont think so....as bitter as he was...he was always an Americ an mundine is an aboriginal [ well almost if you ignore his mother is white] and not only that hes a greedy one..

he got beat in 90 SECONDS got to be a record.. he now has to live with..

Ali was the biggest trash talker in the world: he called black men better than him uncle toms and did absolutely everything to get bums on seats!

If he didn't get six figures atleast I wouldn't have done it... and I don't think he would have either!
