Poor Danny tried his heart out but couldnt land a punch mundine was just to quick but a great effort by green you kept punching hard right to the end. Damn I hate mundine

I'm no mundine fan by any stretch, but he obviously was the better boxer on the night.

He landed more jabs, but he never hurt Green (though Green never hurt him either.) but that is why it's boxing, not fighting.

Mundine is a superb athlete, it's too bad he's too stupid to realise he's not Ali. He can't rhyme like him, though he tries, he can't move like him, though he want's to, and he can't rope-a-dope Green (though Green is no young George Foreman)

And also, if he's muslim, why does he cross himself at the start of the fight?

The fight itself was a little let down. Mundine had a wide stance to jump back all the time, but in the end he just planned better for the fight, and Green had no way to counter. Power to him.

i still hope that we see a rematch, but with green at 33, it's really unlikely.

Still, to those that saw the undercard, how about that guy on earlier that was 0 from 4 with the bloke in his corner with "VB" on his beer gut. He's a genius if ever I saw one :D

some of the best fights were a bit earlier on. a filipino guy who drew with an aussie was a pretty good hard fight.

Well, if nothing else, it got people talking about boxing again.

yeah talking about it and actually being interested is defferent, mostly how much people hate mundine. The thing is the majority don't care what Mundine does now where as if Green had won most would be eager for his next fight.

I cant get over that Aboriginal bloke at the end of the fight, hugging mundine, pissed off his head, i think he was trying to stick his finger up at the camera but stuck the wrong finger up :P

Hey Allblitz, just an aside, but I've been wondering what the Australian Muslim community thinks of Mundine, and your sig made me think you might have some knowledge.

From an outsiders perspective, it seems that Mundine just picked it because Ali did. He still crosses himself before a fight for crying out loud. Also when he talks about 'his people' we never seem to know wether he's talking about his fans, his religion or his race. Having said that, I've never met the bloke, so for all I know he could be reading the Koran right now.

Kozeyekan, he never crosses himself before a fight. Last nights fight he went to the corner and raised his hands (prayer). I dont know much about him as a Muslim, only from what I hear from the media. In Islam, we cannot judge him as we do not know whats in his heart regarding his beliefs. However, his outward actions are definately not what a Muslim should be doing. Having said that, he is only a new Muslim, so I guess all things take time, but i pretty much see what you see :P

No worries, I was just curious.

Personally, I think he'd tie a pink ribbon around his nose if he heard Ali did it, but like you, all I see is the media portrayal, he might be highly pious in his own home..... though I very much doubt it.

Still, winners are grinners and losers can please themselves.

      @joshuaho96 Hmm considering the drama you've seen/experienced, have you looked into getting a built complete long motor shipped from Australia?  Considering the AUD is basically monopoly money when compared to the USD, at a glance this seems like a good option?

      Bloody Skylines, they put you through the bloody wringer! Stick at it! Stunning drag strip BTW! Where is it? Can see part of the name on the slip and probably should just Google it!

      I mean the other day I had to walk someone through diagnosing why their timing belt was walking off the cam gears. At least one of the issues was a bent tensioner stud. Local mechanics have found runout on the CAS mechanism causing weird failures. I'm also no saint here I've documented some of the things I've had to learn the hard way. Something I discovered recently is that my CA emissions catalytic converters weren't even welded correctly to align the downpipe to the main cat and they tossed the support bracket that goes from the transfer case to the downpipe to support everything there. I spend a lot of time chasing down these decidedly unsexy problems and the net effect is it feels like I never actually get to the original objective (flex fuel, VCAM, oil control, cooling, etc).

      At times with how you make everything sound, all I imagine Americans doing when they see a gtr is standing there looking at it and bashing it with a gun like how a caveman would with a club and hoping it fixes itself

      I think this is just a product of how the US market works for this stuff. Shops are expensive and there's no real way of knowing what kind of results you're going to get, people don't really have the institutional knowledge. I have heard too much at this point to really put faith in anybody "full service" except maybe DSport and they aren't really a full service kind of shop. If you go to the right place I have no doubt they'll get it right for you. Some locals have set it up right but the cost really is nuts and even now they're still fighting issues. And you know I'm a crazy person who thinks things like twin scroll, relatively short low-mount cast headers, PCV recirc to intake, recirculating BOV, right-sized for ~400 whp, MAF load, validating all of that to a standard comparable to OEM test programs, etc are relevant. For what it's worth, multiple local owners at this point have been stuck in a perpetual cycle of blowing a motor -> getting someone to rebuild it -> some missed detail causes the bearings to wipe and spin just outside of break-in mileage or drop valves or some other catastrophe -> cycle repeats. I usually only find out about this because I'm perpetually helping random friends with diagnosing car troubles, Skyline or otherwise. The single turbo stuff if I'm honest is mostly secondary, it just doesn't seem to achieve the numbers in the ~2000-3000 rpm region that I would expect given the results I've seen here or in Motive's videos. I don't really know what we're missing here in the US to be causing this. Lots of people like to emphasize the necessity of finishing the project first and foremost, but I'm not made of money and I can't afford to be trashing a 15k+ USD engine build with any regularity. Or spending my relatively limited garage time these days unable to triangulate problems because too much was changed all at once. Also, even if it isn't a catastrophic failure I would consider spending the cost of single turbo conversion with nothing to show for it to be pretty bad.
