De Mori WUD Mahone

to beat a former world title challenger is a huge confidence boost for me, i dont think anyone outside my team thought id win.

mahone is not the same fighter he was a few years ago, but the game plan we had gave him no chance, we took advantage of his slow foot and hand speed, no brawling just scoring points, never letting him set, and using a few diff tactics to take his confidence in his jab away, which is his measuring stick before he throws anything

n2shape, didnt know you were at the fight, should have come and said hi

Great win Mark, I thought you could win but not that easily. On to bigger and better things now. Who are you hoping to fight next?

looks like i accideantelly started a new thread instead of replying to the original one, oh well,

zojo, stamina was great, i trained really hard but also fought in a style that would mean i could protect my gas tank as ed beats guys by wearing them down

ben, not sure yet, manager ted allen will be talking to people asap

is there any chance it could be Alex Leapai? I liked the way he dominated Briggs a couple of fights ago. I would love to see this fight.

Great win mate.

A rematch with Alex Leapai wouldn't be too bad if you want another fight in Aus. He also holds an OPBF trinket if you want to add that to your mantle...

Mark,

I was meaning to come over and meet you in person, but didnt want to leave the good position I had to watch the Cameron fight, was planning on finding you after that one but then i had to rush off after the show unexpectidly!!

We both discussed this fight by PM on ESB as you know I thaught if you got into a brawl with Ed things would get tough but i was very impressed with how eaily you outboxed him. Yes Ed is a shell of his former self, but the guy knows his way around a ring and still crack and has a reasonable chin still. A very Solid win!

Hi Mark,

Congratulations on your win.

Are you trained by Craig Christian or based out of Harry's gym?

hurricane hank, i train with ron parr at the fitness and fight centre in northbridge, Ron also trains daniel dawson

N2shape, we put alot of work into changing my style and working to a plan for this fight, worked perfectly, camerons opponent was not bad but needs to improve fitness hey?

N2 Shape · Post by **N2 Shape** » 14 Apr 2008, 16:35

Your changes certainly worked well for you.

You have to wonder how much training Haggler did before this fight, he was a replacement for Witherspoon so perhaps he only did a few weeks worth which showed he was gassed after 3/4 rounds I dont think he wanted to come out for the 6th round but was almost forced to by his corner. Hagglers record looked good but if you study it you'll see hes nothing special. He did look dangerous though for those 1st 2/3 rounds though.

Any chance of you fighting Mirovic or Haumono? It is about time we worked out who should really be Australian champ.

Marlin · Post by **Marlin** » 15 Apr 2008, 02:25

Mark would destroy Mirovic!

Congratulations Mark,
this was the first time I've seen you fight, and I'm looking forward to your next fight.
I gather you're looking at heading to the USA, any chance of jumping in the ring with Cameron in the future?
