PPV C minus.
Mundine trying to sell his last fight on PPV bought this mark down. Anthony I expecting you to step out of your comfort zone next year.

World Champions. B
Although we lost a Darchinian and N'dou, we gained a Green and a Geale , (The N'dou was a claytons anyway)

Local Promotions B minus. Saved from a C by the Geale Dawson night. Local promotors get the shit kicked out of them on this site, I am an offender there but the result is that we do have a lot of fighters strutting their stuff on the world stage. Is that because of, or inspite of, the promotions we have here.

Press coverage of Boxing F. Thank God for public Radio/Television, Internet and SEN.

Future prospects B plus. Mundine, Green, Geale, Dawson,Darchy, Katsidas, Cameron (NZ), N'dou, All world Class. Kickett on the way up. Could be a stellar year.

Overall rating B minus. A good year, not a great year but plenty of promise.

School Prefect: Anthony Mundine, Now do some good with your high profile.

This is an interesting idea for a thread. :TU:

I like the fact you gave it an overall score of B minus in your post but didn't include that option in the poll :D

All thing considered it was a pretty decent year I went with a B.

Got me there I'm not a rocket scientist....:)

Anyway we criticise but we have a few good representatives on the world stage. It's a tough caper and I wish them all the best.

I have seen worse years. Most of the time in the last 40 years we have often scratched for a Commonwealth champ, much less a few World champs. In some years we have had someone holding every Australian title from Middleweight to Heavyweight.

Forget about Mundine helping any pudendum, except lining his own pockets

Which is the smart thing to do.
