I think on a whole the sport is going to suffer without Mundine, his ability to draw a crowd was second to none. Doubt that anyone will be able to accomplish what he did in and outside the ring

Can Australian boxing survive the post-Mundine era?

Horn is still trying to get a reamtch with Pacquiao, but Pacquiao has squashed the notion that he wants to get back into the ring with Horn. Also Horn needs to go up to SWW and take on Brook or another top contender, at the moment he is not ready for a title shot.

Should Horn move up or return to welterweight?

I would have to agree that Dib is definelty top 15 of all time, certain not top ten but certainly up there. Actually, I give it a crack.

10. Sakio Bika
9. Billy Dib
8. Barry Michael
7. Anthony Mundine
6. Jeff Harding
5. Jeff Fench
4. Daniel Geale
3. Lionel Rose
2. Vic Darchinyan
1. Kostya Tszyu.

Arguments could easily be made for Lester Ellis, Johnny Famechon, or Les Darcy

Dib calls it a career after defeat by Farmer

Horn v Mundine was the funniest event of 2018

Pretty short there Drew. anymore articles coming from you

Golovkin vs Canelo gives the world a real fight

Fair comment about Green, his title regins was scratchy at best. Never defended the WBA Light-heavyweight title, he retired a month before he was supposed to fight Hugo Garay. His IBO regin was a bit of a questionable reign. Never fought in the cruiserweight division but somehow got a world title shot. Granted he knocked the stuffing out of Roy Jones Jr but many argue that he through that fight (personally I don’t buy it, he legit got smashed). Then he dragged Manny Siaca out of rehab to one up Mundine. The Briggs fight never should of happened and then fight another heavyweight at ‘Dannyweight”. Then finally fights a legit world champ and the IBO finally makes him fight a 200lbs against Antonio Tarver. Of course Tarver smashed him all night and he easily lost. His fight against Krzysztof Wlodarczyk was definetly a better fight and i question why didn’t he fight at 200lbs earlier, he almost won that fight. It was really sad that he didn’t win that fight. Would of been great.

The top 10 Australian boxers of all time

Nice article but Vic Darchinyan constantly somehow gets left of these lists. Won more titles then Kostya or Fenech and holds the record with the IBO with four title regins across three divisions.

I think Barba was the perfect target for this so called “Stance”. I would very much like to see if that was a different player that had no previous troubles on or off the field, that the plenty would be so swift and severe?.
