Choc likes to shock!
He always has, but he's not the sharpest tool in the shed so some of his 'insights' went just a bit too far.
So in the balance between showmanship and offending he sometimes was closer to the latter.
As a result he will never win a popularity contest.
Despite that this is one of the most talented sportsman Australia has produced.
Only a few rare talents reach the elite level in different sports.
I think Mundine just suffers a bit from the fact that his elite talent was always just a bit below his own declarations of greatness....and he was judged accordingly.
Would it have been better for him, and would he have been more popular if he had conformed to more 'acceptable' behaviour?
Probably.
Would he have made as much money?
Probably not!
That was the show.
