Is anyone actually going to bother going?

I'd go if it rains - it'll be hilarious to see them slipping around trying to land a blow

When is ''Wild Thing'' throwing out the Opening Pitch?

This.

Seriously though, a 43yo bloke vs a 41yo half blind bloke who weighs almost 5-6kgs less at fight time. Now they may both be in reasonable nick but Green could do some serious damage to Mundine if he gets it right.

The previous fight had Green dropping so much weight to meet Mundine plus he had a serious virus and he still stood up for 13 rounds.

This was a long long time ago, and all this is is a payday. I'll be staggered if its half full.

I shudder to think what we ponied up to "outbid" the eastern states for this, what a waste of time and money for two washed up flogs.

Think the only city we outbid was Perth, who were only offering Perth Arena for the 'fight'

Good luck to them and good luck to the SMA.

But the only controversy will be if Mundine doesn't stand for the National Anthem and if it lasts less than 3 rounds with only soft lovetaps happening. At both over 40 I would expect them to not want to hurt each other.

May as well sing Kumbaya , that's how tame it will be.

Oh they'll want to hurt each other, it just won't take much. Choc will take a knee during the anthem and will rightly cop it.
