HAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAHA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OMG! LOVE IT!


That one inch set green`s whole career further than most ever thought possible, that one blow that caught jones`s temple, one inch lower and it all may have been different.

LOL

Are you bloke serious? Have you ever actually done any fighting? What Green has achieved in this fight is nothing short of spectacular. Roy JJ is a future Hall of Fame fighter and Green took him apart with the skill of a surgeon finished with the devastation of a Great White on the attack. That is strategy at it's finest my friends. Green knew he wouldn't win a boxing match with this guy, he had to take him down in a brutal assault on he did it to perfection.
The attack on Jones after the initial knockdown gives me goosebumps. Green throws everything at him, he is leaving nothing in reserve.

:good:

cant you see how funny the whole thing is..massive hype and that result happens

This look?

<EDITED>

WE feel for the punter who strode into the Royal Hotel at Richmond on Wednesday night, pulled $3000 out of his pocket, and plonked it on Roy Jones Jr. He declared to his mates, "How good's this, it's the easiest $1000 I'll ever make". By the time he'd got back from the bar, the fight was all over. Now what's that old saying ... "odds on - look on".

NRL player Webb set for boxing debut

Carl Webb intends to let his fists rather than his mouth do the talking on Monday when he becomes the latest in a growing band of rugby league players to have a professional boxing fight.

The North Queensland, Queensland and Australian Test star will fight unheralded Sydneysider Scott Lewis on the undercard of the Anthony Mundine-Robert Medley bout at the Sydney Entertainment Centre.

The powerful 28-year-old forward hasn't ruled out having further fights, though he is concentrating on his upcoming league commitments to the Cowboys.

He believes his fledgling boxing career has the support of his Cowboys team-mates even if he has received something of a ribbing about it from his colleagues.

Webb weighed in at 108.3kg, while Lewis, who has an undistinguished 1-3 professional record with all of his losses coming inside the distance, weighed in at 103.5kg.

"I see all the trash talking and that, but I've never been big on that sort of thing," Webb said on the Nine Network news.

"Especially when you go out there, there's every chance that you are going to get knocked out."

Webb will join an expanding list of league players who have had at least one professional fight.

Mundine has been the most successful of all of them, winning world title belts at middleweight and super middleweight.

In more recent times, John Hopoate and Solomon Haumono also made the switch.

Hopoate has also enjoyed some success, winning an Australian heavyweight title, though his future is in doubt after losing two of his last three bouts.

Haumono started his professional boxing career with 15 wins and was unbeaten in his first 17 fights, notching 15 knockouts.

However, he lost his unbeaten record in August of last year.

Former Cronulla and St George Illawarra forward Lance Thompson compiled a 2-1 record, while former New Zealand Test star and current rugby union player Sonny Bill Williams triumphed in his only professional contest to date.

Wraps cost Green date with Executioner
DANNY WEIDLER
January 17, 2010

BERNARD HOPKINS'S interest in fighting Danny Green was all but wiped out by the controversy over the hand wraps Green used in his victory over Roy Jones jnr in Sydney.

Jones jnr's management has told us that Hopkins has agreed to fight Jones jnr - most likely at the end of April in Las Vegas.

''Bernard heard about what Green did, saw the wraps,'' said McGee Wright, Jones' manager. ''That was a big factor when we were doing the negotiation for the fight.

When Hopkins fought against Felix Trinidad in New York he made Trinidad re-wrap his hands three times.

Green would not get away with what he did against Roy.'' Green also missed out on the fight because he wanted to fight Hopkins in Australia.

''It wasn't a money issue - that's something Danny's camp want to tell people. It was because Danny wouldn't fight Bernard in America.''

But Wright has offered Green a fight on the Hopkins undercard. ''Yeah, I want to make an offer to Danny - I will fight him,'' Wright said. ''It will be in a Mixed Martial Arts format and we will be on the undercard. He looked at me after the [Jones jnr] fight and … instead of being a gracious winner he wanted to carry on. I'll give it to him in the ring. We gave Danny's manager an 'f - you' by beating him to the Hopkins fight and I'll whip his boxer's behind in the ring if he has the courage to face me.''

Danny Green breaks Dominic Vea's nose in brutal sparring session - Daily Telegraph

Danny Green breaks Dominic Vea's nose in brutal sparring session

NOBODY gets paid enough to do this.

Suburban slugger Dominic Vea yesterday became Danny Green's personal punching bag and after six bruising rounds, Vea was left with a broken nose, a blood-soaked face and not a penny in his pockets.

But the chance to go toe-to-toe with Green was priceless for Vea.

"I've got a cut on the lip, but Danny is a world-class fighter," said the Blacktown-raised Vea, 28, who has his own pro stoush next Thursday against Wagga local Anthony McCracken.

"When you're sparring you only go at 80 per cent, but it wasn't one of my good ones. I can tell you I've never had my nose broken before."

Green, who at one stage restricted all punches to the body in a bid to protect Vea's face, could not have looked better as he rounded out his preparations for the April 14 world-title fight against Manny Siaca.

Strutting his stuff before some of Australia's biggest sporting names, including Eels Jarryd Hayne, Ben Smith, Luke Burt and Feleti Mateo, Sharks coach Ricky Stuart (who asked for Hayne to be Green's next sparring partner), former Socceroos goalkeeper Mark Bosnich and fellow boxing world champion Vic Darchinyan, "The Green Machine" praised Vea.

"I've sparred Dom a lot, he's a really brave kid," Green said. "Every time these guys come to spar me they bring their A game, and Dom came out hard early.

"While he was giving it his all, I was seeing and blocking his shots and picking away.

"At one stage his nose was pouring with blood and, with Dom being a mate of mine, I wanted to look after him.

"I said 'you have to take this', but when I saw the blood I said, 'let's keep it all to the body'. I've paid my dues for 20 years sparring and know what it's like to be hurt.

"Dom wouldn't have stopped if his eyes were down the back of his throat, so I admire his courage."

Green, who stunned the boxing world with his first-round stoppage of Roy Jones Jr in December (Jones Jr will fight Bernard Hopkins in the US this weekend) said he would not take Siaca lightly.

"I'm the consummate professional," he said. "Siaca is a different opponent to Roy Jones. He hasn't got the massive international name like Roy Jones, but it will be a tough fight for me because Siaca will be hungry.

"If he can take my world title, it will open the door for more big fights for him overseas. Hopefully he'll be in a world of trouble."

Hayne, who said roommate Smith would beat him in a fight, said of Green: "He's such a professional athlete. Boxing is not much different to a team sport, you've got your mates around you all the time, and you could tell how switched on he is when he trains. That session was crazy."

Stuart, whose Sharks play Parramatta in the NRL tomorrow night, said he admired any top-level sportsperson.

HAYE'S SPRAY

British heavyweight boxing champion David Haye wasted no time baiting the Klitschko brothers after stopping John Ruiz in the ninth round at the weekend. Having retained his WBA title, Haye plans to unify the division by claiming Wladimir Klitschko's IBF, WBO and IBO belts, and Vitali Klitschko's WBC title. ''The Klitschkos, all their careers, have fought guys who are clearly overweight, out of shape, happy to keep getting a payday,'' Haye said.

Aussies true blue blood and guts warrior Michael "Rocky" Katsidis takes on Kevin Mitchell this saturday in london for the Interim WBO World Lightweight title.

This could be fight of the year as both guys are come forward throwing everything but the kitchen sink kind of guys. If you get a chance make sure you tune in

 

[Boundos]

Congrats to Rocky aussies newest Interim Lightweight champion.

Good exchanges early in the fight, Mitchell looked to out box Katsidis, establishing a good jab in round 1 &2 and keeping good range.

Rocky kept coming forward apply pressure and caught Mitchell with a left hook midway through the 3rd that rocked him. The ref stepped in with 1:13 to go in round 3 saving mitchell from further punishment giving Rocky the TKO.

Rocky now looks towards a fight with current lightweight champ Juan Manuel Marquez later in the year.

Mundines next opponent

Well after ducking challenges from Pavlik, Golovtkin and Aussies own les Sherrington, Mundine has decided to risk it all in a deadly clash with............


Jorge Daniel Miranda

for those of you unfamiliar with Jorge's work (and unless you are in fact Jorge himself you wont be) he is Argentina's number 4 ranked light middleweight. Yes i repeat ARGENTINA'S 4th RANKED light middleweight.

Jorge is ranked 100 in the world light middle weight ranks, and boasts an exceptional record of 36-8 with 13 ko's. Jorge has never fought anyone of any note, and has been KTFO in 4 of his 8 losses.

So basically unless jorge comes into the ring with a baseball bat, and catches Mundine when he is praying in the corner, this is gunna be yet another easy win. In fact Mundine faces more risk of falling and knocking himself out on the walk to the ring, than anything Jorge can dish him.

Didn't you hear but, He's the only one in the world that can beat Mayweather

 

[El Coconuto]

Gosh, I haven't watched boxing since Pernell "Sweet Pea" Whitaker was there

Jorge pulled out last night over money disputes. seems an arse whoopin costs more these days since the global financial crisis
