Courier Mail , 15 May. ;" The WBA stripped Anthony Mundine of his interim super welterweight title after he failed to obey an order for a mandatory fight against title holder American Austin Trout.Mundine became the mandatory challenger with a decision win over Rigoberto Alvarez in October last year, but turned down a world title fight against champion Trout.

Jukebox :)He a brawler and an arrogant egoist, more than that it has nothing to do with race, Lionel Rose was a gentleman and universally liked because of it.
Haven't liked him since he walked out on St George without so much as a by your leave.
It doesn't matter who he fights, I will always be a supporter of his opponent. Not that I would ever bother watching him.

So if you dont watch him, how do you qualify him as a brawler.....He is a pretty darn good technical boxer. His personal character I wont comment on as I dont know him and dont believe half the BS surrounding him.

I agree with this, he is a very good boxer and as long as you don't stick a microphone or camera in front of him, he is like his father a nice bloke, I don't know him personnally but I do know people in his community.

Baz.I guess you weren't the one whom his father assaulted in Balmain and you haven't had your Land Rover broken into and your posessions stolen by his family and when you tackled the Mundine walking away with several thousand dollars of your camera equipment to have Police complaints sworn against you for assault.
I have had that happen and it is why I have no time for Mundine and any of his family.

Didn't know that, like I said don't him personnally (or family)only his friends in his community(I worked at Randwick Council for 3yrs)

Unlike Mundine, Lionel Rose was well respected overseas, as a person, as well as a boxer. Fighting Harada had a steak house, in Sasebo, I think, [long time ago], we walked in and were surprised to see photos of Lionel & Harada all over the place. When the waiter found out we were Aussies., he went out the back, & Harada came out. Great night had with an absolute gentleman, quite a few free drinks as well. He spoke about Lionel in glowing terms, Bob

well that sucks but it doesnt qualify Anthony as a Brawler nore does it make himself a theif or assulter.....He may say some pretty stupid thing in the name of hype and marketing but that is that. As far as him walking from souths, If he did so because of his beliefs for what ever they may be, does that make him a bad person???
