This fight should not have been allowed to go ahead and Mundine should never have been granted a license to fight especially vs someone with the ability of Zerafa, why not find another old famous Pug and they can dance around till they both get tired hitting fresh air. This was a slaughter and made the controversial sport of boxing look even worse.
Ahem, rnd 1. Just retire, he is embarrassing himself.

Absolutely. Allowing old boxers to fight is inexcusable, as are bouts between ageing ex-footballers. It may be a nice little earner but at what cost in terms of health and wellbeing?

I spent most of my money on Women and grog.
The rest I just wasted.

The stars aligned for Foreman. He was losing and landed a big shot against a Moorer who was fortunate to beat Holyfield to have the title in the first place.
Heavyweights can generally fight longer as they don't have to cut weight. Mundine dropping weight as he got older made it worse for him but he was too stupid to realize this.
