quality fighting last night - had a ball - great bbq'ing chad :) , but seems that mundine had green's measure - thought about what he was going to do - absorb the first few rounds and jab when the opportunity arose and then just wait for the right opportunity. how quick are mundine's reflexes? they both showed good sportsmanship at the end which was great to see.

I totally agree. It was a grudge match to start with but by the 11th the respect for each other came through and it was a show of true sportsmanship.

Much respect to Mundine...

Was a great fight, but you could see Green slow down considerably after the 8th round.

I really don't like Mundine. But full credit that he didn't act like a wanker when he won.

Mundine bout prompts national fights
Thursday May 18 10:50 AEST
Boxing fans went wild in a series of brawls sparked by the Anthony Mundine-Danny Green super middleweight fight in Sydney.

Fuelled by alcohol, and possibly Mundine's win, pub patrons in Perth and Adelaide were involved in a series of fights in pubs and hotel carparks, police said.

Trouble was also reported in Queensland, where fights in Ipswich, Noosa and Brisbane are also believed linked to the Sydney bout, shown live on pay TV in pubs across the country.

In the worst incident three men were knocked unconscious at the Coolbellup Tavern in Fremantle and required hospital treatment.

A 45-year-old man remained in hospital in a serious condition, a police spokeswoman said.

Several arrests were also made across Perth, including three men involved in a fight at the Kwinana Lodge Hotel.

Danny Green comes from Perth, but the police spokeswoman said hotels were unprepared for the large crowds watching the title fight.

At many venues patrons were forced to watch through hotel windows and from footpaths with the fight broadcast exclusively on pay television.

Police said a number of hotels had failed to put in sufficient crowd control measures but the behaviour of pub patrons remained very disappointing.

"Maybe, had the result been different, things wouldn't have got so out of hand," she said.

"But people were just fuelled by drink, disappointment and aggression."

In Adelaide, police responded to 14 calls at pubs and hotel carparks where fights and scuffles had broken out.

The calls came from most areas including inner Adelaide and suburbs both north and south of the city.

All the fights ended without major incident with patrons moved on or asked to leave, a spokesman said.

"All had been drinking and watching the fight live on TV," he said.

"Either it wasn't a popular win and they were fighting over the result or they were just fuelled by too many drinks and then suddenly everyone thinks they're Rocky Balboa.

"Some people just got too carried away."

In Queensland, police were called to break up a brawl in the car park of a hotel in Ipswich involving up to 30 people, which erupted after the tavern closed about midnight.

In a separate incident, police used capsicum spray to subdue a man after officers were called to the Tewantin Noosa RSL on the Sunshine Coast, where a number of people were fighting.

In Brisbane, up to 20 people were arrested after similar incidents in the CBD and inner-city Fortitude Valley, ABC Radio said, although police said there was no connection with the Mundine-Green fight.

Anyone watch the Hopoate fight? :lol: now that was hilarious

Looked like Hoppo was fighting an invalid pensioner!

Think the fight before the main card was a bit stiff to be a draw too, reckon the philipino got up over the 'aussie'

All it would have taken last night was for one green punch to land, but he just couldnt put one on him. It appears mundine is a much better fighter than i gave him credit for previously. He boxed well last night, deserves the accolades he gets and another shot at the title.

I agree, i reckon the aussie was fighting dirty. The headbutt was definately uncalled for and the cheap shots when they grappled may have tipped the balance a little which is dissapointing.. I thought the guy from the phillipines had a style reminicent of thai boxing, he definately had the feet and hands in the right place and he was fast as hell atleast for the first 2 rounds..

The hopoate fight was funny tho, KO in 50 seconds of the first round. The old guy was still sitting on the mat 5 minutes later !

Great fight night anyway :thumbsup:

did anyone on this fuckn site actualy watch any previous fights from both these boxers befor saying who was the best?

if you payed attention during the lead up fights when they were showing clips from there previous fights you can clearly see that mundine is a FAR FAR more technical fighter.

Green is a hard as fuck left hook knock out animal instinct never back down fighter, unfortunatly he lacks the technical ability that he needs to beat the style of fighter that mundine is

(not directed at you rewind its a general slang)

Thought it was a pretty good fight, even though it wasn't the outcome I wanted. Thing about Mundine was he was so much quicker and hard to hit than Green & only seemed to go for the point hits. I reckon they should have gone another 4 rounds coz they definitely looked up for it.

Ended up fighting with my housemate outside for a muck around til the cnut bit my FRIGGIN EAR! :grr:

same as me kostya is an unbelieveable athlete and is a god as far as im concerened, even he said mundine is a better fighter and had him picked as the winner befor the bout.

Mundine has had his ass kicked BAD he was knocked out for nearly 20 mins now thats a serious ass kicking.

if mundine could shut his fuckn mouth and adopt kostya attitude he would be a complete package BUT.....

would last nights fight have attracted any where near as much attention?
