Let me first say that boxing is not a sport – it is barbaric and stupid. I can’t see the appeal in seeing two brain damaged idiots inflicting more brain damage on each other for the benefit of a crowd of middle aged men trying to vicariously live out some sort of warrior fantasy.
However, I do confess to having a little chuckle on hearing the news this week that motor mouth Anthony Mundine (he of the self styled nickname “The Man”) was knocked out in a fight by Garth Wood, who had won the right to fight Mundine by winning a reality TV show called “The Contender”.
Oh yeah,just wonderful.Does that mean he changes his moniker to “the Mouse”
