It would have to be in Germany and I reckon it might be the worst fight in the history of boxing.

would be in germany and i think mundine is too tough to be KO'd by sturm, which would suit sturm to win what idd think a very clear points victory

Too tough to be Koed? Ottke only scored 6 KOs in his professional career, and The Mouth was one of them.

mundine will flog sturm, if mundine doesnt knock him out he will still win convincingly enough to get the decision even in germany

sturm has no advantages over mundine, not one

Not even the fact that he is a World Champion based in Germany, you really don't think that is an advantage!?!

Mundine will beat Sturm easily IMO. He is quicker, Bigger and hits as hard. I cant see Sturm being able to do anything to worry Mundine.

Ben u don't seem to take into account the fact that u have come to this conclusion by watching mundine fight sub par opponents in his last half a dozen fights.

Its impossible to really see how good mundine is until he fights high quality opposition.

Hopefully this year will be his year to prove he is as good as he says

Other than ottke, kessler and echols, he's been fighting fringe contenders.

Do I really need to say it again!?!

Sturm is also probably the weakest Title holder in the game today...

He has always fought Lesser fighters. Its served him well so far. If Mundine is prepared and trains hard he will beat Sturm. There's no doubt in my mind.

He still has far quicker hands than Sturm. He has lost power at 160 but he dosnt need it to outbox Sturm.

Also Sturm hasnt exactly been fighting the cream of the crop.

I dont like Mundine but i wont back against him just for the sake of it Adam.

And also Sam Soliman and Green are as good as anyone that Sturm has beaten. And Mundine deafeted them easily.
Id tip Soliman to give Sturm all he could handle also.

Fighting in Germany gives Sturm 3 or four rounds start.Mundine will beat him on points but will he get the decision? Mundines recent lack of ko power is a worry in Germany where you may well need a ko to get a result.

I went to the fights last night and if mundine cant knock out taylor than he cant beat any world champion middleweights, he doesnt have the power.

Interesting,

So if a fighter cant ko his opponent he wont win a title. :o :o Could he possibly just outbox and out land them. Wouldnt that be enough :wink: :wink:

He might be saying that if you aren't good enough to land enough shots to stop a well and truly shot Shannan Taylor who wanted to quit on his stool recently then you won't be good enough to take a Title off someone...

Anthony is faster than Felix, he can land more punches than Felix, lets say they are both super fit the only way i can see Felix winning is by KO and yes he can do that but only if Anthony fights him, if Anthony boxes him he wins.
If you watch Felix he likes to be close to land his telling blows so nearly heads touching close, and he counter-punches well and has power in both hands, so if a mug like me can see this i'm sure Tony Mundine can aswell.
Choc needs to turn up very fit and fast and go 12 rounds of jab and move boxing and he will take the title off Felix

I still think we underestimate the ability of german promoters/officials to construct some of the best home town desicions in the world. Out boxing a German champion in Germany is no guarantee of a title.
