You'll be looking at 30 bucks - Not bad value IMO

But not much at all.

Mind ya, OZ promoters are very kind to BoxRec editors & usually layout the red carpet for us.

Even though i don't agree with it. Being 2 domestic fighters on PPV. PPV should be something for the absolute elite, e.g mayweather, margarito, calzaghe, kessler.

I do believe that Mirovic deserves this. He has fought his whole career and dedicated his life to the sport. And yet apparently hes not financially secure, according to a FSN interview i watched. So i hope Bob does make some solid $$$ from it.

so this fight is a benefit to Big Bib? A testimonial fight for his retirement? Why is he not financially secure? I would say that 80-90% of professional fighters in Australia have a second job, or, more appropriately, boxing is their second job. Not saying that this is right, it's just the way it is. If money has been a problem, what has Bob done to fix it? Sorry for the cynicism.

Dunno man.

I know hes been living with his friends for years.

And i don't think he has been able to work full time. More part time. Because he trains the same as a full time boxer.

The fact I'm a member of ANBF's Ratings Committee probably helps :P

I think the card has slipped a bit from the last time I looked at it... A few decent fighters but not many good match ups... The highlight is probaly seeing Jackson Asiku in the ring again.

I wouldn't pay for it and once again being on a wednesday I probably won't even go to the pub (my local won't have it).

should be good fight if sonni keeps his head out of it, his last fight down here went the distance so i know if he puts his mind to it he is a threat.

Sonni has been training the house down. and is fired up for a great hard fight.

welcome to oz my man...they do things different round these parts...

"john hopoate" and "PPV" shouldn't even be in the same paragraph let alone the same sentence.

bob's a likeable guy but PPV?

as long as you guys have his head right and he bothers to listen to you, he has had a few trainers. i still believe he is a threat.

god no, mundine is a household name in australia.....hopoate was famous for putting fingers in peoples bums when he played rugby league. i doubt the average joe even knows hopoate is a boxer now.

Marlin · Post by **Marlin** » 20 Aug 2008, 01:26

I don't think that is totally accurate. Hoppa was a great player in his early years and he a has received a heap of press as a boxer...
