They call him the mouth from the south...Anthony Mundine. He's a legend in his own mind, an ex football player who's father fought for a world middleweight title back in the '70's.
Mundine fought his first professional boxing match in 2000, at the age of 25. After no amateur career, his first sanctioned fight was against the 41 year old middleweight Diesel "Diehard" Jackson. Only 10 professional bouts later Mundine fought for his first world title against long reigning IBF supermiddleweight champion Sven Ottke in January 2001. The fight ended suddenly after 10 competitive rounds when Ottke landed a blow to Mundine's temple that left the latter unconscious on the canvass. Despite this dramatic loss, he returned to the ring, promising to fight again for a world title. He went on to claim the vacant WBA Super Middleweight title with a unanimous points decision over Antwun Echols on September 3, 2003, in front of his home crowd at the Sydney Entertainment Centre. He successfully defended his title once, before losing it in a hesitant performance and split points decision against Manny Siaca.
