The Golden Age of Aussie boxing quickly turned to shite.

Given Presidente Croucher had my full support since 2002, I should be granted Honorary President status.

BTW, Mr Ropis
I heard you resigned from ANBF Vic Branch & will now concentrate on WBF ratings.
True or false?

Once Mundine goes down I can confirm Aussie boxing is dead. As a resident for over 4 years I think only Green and Mundine ever got much press coverage. Geale briefly, but he seems done now as well. Damien Hooper might come though, but looks a bit suspect to me.

I'm in SA. You can't deny that media coverage is very thin to say the least, which suggests there isn't very much money in boxing to attract the youngsters. And the boxing rag, World of Boxing dissolved a good 12 months ago. If Aussie isn't dying what is it doing, hibernating for the winter?

The Brothers Bella are very good prospects, saw Ib fight on Friday night, Jeff Horn, though, is my first pick.

Rational discussion 101 right here, folks. Ol' busteroony can't help himself but to personaly insult any one who dares post their opinion, should it differ to Buster's.

Been told today, there's fair bit of commotion within ANBF Vic...so much so it's unlikely it'll host this year's ANBF Ltd AGM

Shame, Shame, Shame!
All you blokes have forgotten that Diana Prazak is the current WBC Women's Super Featherweight champ. Diana is also ranked #1 in that division's rankings by BoxRec.

Unfortunately women have always been forgotten. Sharon Anyos is an example.
Took decades for NSW allowing them to fight in the State

it was nothing but a trolling comment mr. dingleberry.
any rational person, or even yourself, would know oz boxing is not dead because mundine retired. its a ludicrous comment at best.
but once again u can make your self righteous dribble about me, u seem to be the only one to single me out on occasions. but its ok for a hypocrite like u to insult apparently, lol.
