Without a doubt, Australia's best ever athlete. Naturally gifted; obviously! But being gifted does not automatically translate into being skillful at your chosen craft, nor will it ensure success at any level, let alone at the highest level, to achieve what Anthony has (even ignoring the timeframe), requires enormous amounts of hard work, dedication, discipline, an extraordinary mindset, plus the right people as your inner circle. We are all extremely lucky to have had the opportunity to witness a true legend. Most impressive to me is he also seems to be an incredible human. Nothing but 100% respect. His closing comments are the perfect exclamation mark to an excellent documentary.
What a great man,, integrity anthony , you ooze it, with a bit of talent thrown in , rephrase that a whole lot of talent,, you come from great loving parents and its clear you will go dow. Inhistory as one of the worlds greatest athletes . Proud australian .
Love him or hate him, he revived boxing in Australia when half the population didn’t even know what boxing was. Even from the boxing events of Jack Johnson to Jeff Fenech this country threw this great sport away and forgot how great it was until Mundine came along.
This is truly ridiculous. The narrative on each fight is completely false. In the Kessler fight he barely won a round and the documentary suggests he was in the fight. Similar for the Echols fight. They pumped up Echols on a fight with Hopkins in which he barely won a round and Echols has never beaten any decent fighter. A hand picked manicured fight career which is fine, but don't pretend otherwise. Mundine was a limited fighter who constantly proved his lack of intelligence with disrespectful comments such us "America bought 9-11 on themselves" and "woman cant be leaders in the community" referring to Cathy Freeman. Laughable! He should be condemned.
It was my mate from school, Dr John Males opthalmic surgeon who treated his eye condition. Huge loss for rugby league not naming him in the national team alongside Brad Fittler
Still remember watching that fight against Green on t.v here in NZ. Boxing wasn't big here then and still isn't but me an my boys were hyped as we were massive NRL fans. And then he out boxed green almost easily.
I love the guy, his such a legend as well, I've ran into a couple times always a man for his fans. Mundine to beat Horn this Friday. Mundines the best ever.
Never heard of him I'm in America but I love his interviews he's hella funny remind me of Tyson fury mix with alil.mike Tyson on selling fights . now this fight he showed to much respect and fear to klesser
A lot of people don't know how good a rugby league player Anthony was, I grew up playing league from under seven's ,I played for 15 years so I knew the game and Mundine was an outstanding Player, I was shocked like many to she him be snubbed by selectors, it was obviously weird he was not an inclusion in the National team the Year he decided to leave.But I was glad he went to Boxing at the same time.
Im from the uk and Mundine is a sports legend in my book. Fascinating character to say the least. Can anyone tell me why he gets so much hate over in Australia because he would be loved in the uk? Ie Tyson Fury
Because Australians don't know how to handle outspokenness. Especially when it's from an ethnic minority. We're like 10 year behind the UK when it comes to that. We're an island in the middle of nowhere, we progress slowly. We're also home to kangaroos and Koalas who possess the skills to, respectively, rip your stomach open and claw your eyes out. So come visit, just don't bring your dog. You can ask Johnny Depp about that one, my shrimp is burning.
Dan B a lot of people don’t like Mundine cause he stands up for his aboriginal people which is good what his doing standing up for his people and How he talks a lot I don’t always agree with everything he says but I can say he is a great athlete and he has done something that I don’t think anyone will do again or won’t happen for a long time play nrl at the highest level of rugby league he was a star at rugby league and then switch to boxing and became a 3 time world champion
The media , government and the civilians are very racist towards Aboriginals here ecspecially if they're successful. They try everything to diminish and discredit his career from rugby to boxing. Full stop , bottom line.
Greatest boxer of all time. Even Mayweather and Tyson aren't as great! and Mundine is also a true gentleman, so polite and respectful to everyone. A perfect role model for children everywhere.
Mundine fought 2nd rate fighters his whole career and was even knocked out by sven otke who hid from calzaghe his entire career and only had 5 knock outs
Anthony you had to beat green otke Kessler beyer calzaque and Jones and stay undefeated for 10years! Then u would have been recognized as australias greatest Australias greatest! Not even close!!
Flew down to Sydney for game 1 origin 2010? Maybe … anyway at the airport flying back morning after origin was at airport with my 10 year old son and we had a photo with choc and he said keep training hard to my son and then he asked me for my address in Brisbane he would send my son some boxa gears gloves etc I didn’t expect it to come he’s a busy man forget about it a week later a box gets delivered to Brisbane has gloves wraps shorts tee shirt drink bottle gear bag groin guard boxing boots and a note to my son saying nice to meet you and your dad I wanna see you chasing your dreams be kind listen to your parents and stay on track. No matter what anyone says one of the nicest down to earth people I’ve ever met
I had respect for Mundine from day one, strong identity, guts, passion and brains. I still have respect for him but you realise that something is not right when a man of his calibre says, "its was God's will." You lost its as simple as that.
"Gloves Off" ?? This documentary / PR piece is so one-sided it's a waste of time. If it was genuinely 'gloves off' it would delve deep into his racism, demeaning treatment of opponents, and the hollowness of his outlandish claims. Perhaps also a more honest appraisal of his refusal to fight away from home, failures against quality opponents, and the focus on money ahead of any genuine legacy. This is a puff piece.
Not everyone needs to beat the very best to be respected. Boxing is full of fans that call great contenders and good but not great champions bums, losers, chumps etc. This is a sport where you are likely to suffer permanent brain damage yet you have fans calling you a bum if you are a good champion but not great.
People who say his a dickhead are always just jealous, time made him old so quick. You only got small window in boxing if you start late . Choc you the man
I am an Australian and I cannot stand Mundine and I have never met another Australian who likes or respects him. I am sure they are out there, particularly amongst the Aboriginal community but over the years this arrogant bigmouth has turned most Australians off him. The rubbish that comes out of his mouth is unbelievable. He calls himself, "the man", I think he should change that to "the eternal child".
I know Anthony was a good boxer but not a great unlike Tony mundine who was much better than his son and on a much higher level and should have been a World champion if Monson was not around Big respect to Tony Mundine 😊
Love Mundine , one off the best we produced, he was like a cat , said a couple a bad things but who gives a shit . His speed was awesome to watch when he was on song . Just had silly loses and was robbed against green in the second fight . He beat him and every one knows it deep down
Green beat mungbean you better go watch the fight mate mungbean is nothing but a loud mouthed grub Geale wrecked him as well and mungbean has seen the canvas dozens of times lol
I been beating the complete 💩out of this guy on fight night champion for over a decade. I finally see what he looks like in real life. None of that 💩 was personal bro. Just a video game.
Mundine is a lot better than he gets credit for , a legitimate world champion. His father was good too at light heavy weight but wasn't a world champion
His father lost to an all time great in Monzon for the world title at middleweight. His father was a better boxer and definitely a more classy man.lMO .
Good morning it is insane and disrespectful to compare him to all time greats Calzaghe and Jones. This overrated boxer was koed by Ottke who wanted no part of Calzaghe.
@@keithcampbell6806 Mundine wasn't the best skillwise but he definitely was one of the best athletes. His punches were so fast especially his jab it was just like a jerky stutter of a movement and he hit is target. But like I said he wasn't the best skillwise and had a thin glass chin. Also he was beating Ottke before the KO. But just hitting and running away that how fast he was. He was fast on his feet too from Rugby. Normally Rugby players have big legs. It is amazing how he could transfer his muscle mass to upper body so easily.
It will be great to see the last of this bigmouth clown in saying that Horn will now have to take a leaf out of Mundine and Greens fight book and that pick only fighters that are well beyond their best something both Green and Mundine done all of their careers
I have to admit to see a guy that looks like he never had one training session in his life beat mundane, gafrith Brooks, I mean if if it comes two luck pouches or heart he one that night
He was a grub and he left foot ball cause they new he could fight on a clean blood test he said he loves Australia he said his a abbo but went Muslim he just a grub plays will be and who cares about him now no one all he does Is hope his coffee shops don't burn
Anthony you had to beat otke,green,beyer, kessler, calzaghe & jones ! And stay undefeated for 10 years ! Then you would of been recognized as australias greatest ever boxer!
Yes Michael I had the feeling. I am 5 inches taller and 50kg heavier than Mundine. Try lifting up 50 kg and you will get an idea of the difference. Also I am 10 years younger.

Somehow I doubt you'd be saying such a thing if he hadn't converted to Islam.

The reason why I fee in love with the sport best athlete this country ever produced
Love him or hate him, he revived boxing in Australia when half the population didn’t even know what boxing was. Even from the boxing events of Jack Johnson to Jeff Fenech this country threw this great sport away and forgot how great it was until Mundine came along.
Mundine is a “Legend”. I love this brother.
Australia's greatest athlete Anthony 'THE MAN ' Mundine
He's an extraordinary athlete, in two major sports.
3 if you include most rubbish out of one man's mouth.
Still he won supper middle weight tittle, props!
As a European I didn´t notice how huge his fights in Australia were.
They were not huge. He's a nobody.
@@Steve-gm2jl Now say that without crying!
He beat some great fighters, and no one give him props world champion supermiddle weight... he was revalation at time and great at whatever he did!
My big brother so much respect for you Mundine and your beautiful family you are truly blessed and the man
and his white mother dont forget

Looking back, all i see is shades of Roy Jones.... Of course Mundine was never at THAT level, but the fighting style is so similar to Roy's
A great Australian athlete. Respect
It was my mate from school, Dr John Males opthalmic surgeon who treated his eye condition.

I didn't even know he played professional rugby league. That's crazy as. I only knew him as the amazing boxer.
A lot of people don't know how good a rugby league player Anthony was, I grew up playing league from under seven's ,I played for 15 years so I knew the game and Mundine was an outstanding Player, I was shocked like many to she him be snubbed by selectors, it was obviously weird he was not an inclusion in the National team the Year he decided to leave.But I was glad he went to Boxing at the same time.
