Shitty Australian Boxing

@mariner4life Probably not ... but he should be above getting in the ring with such an absolute joke of an opponent. By all means, throw a donkey in there to get the win, but at least try and disguise that the donkey is a donkey.

@MajorRage McInnes did have 'fighting' experience. Even more than Cooper. There's generally a sideshow in the undercard. I personally don't think it does anything to diminish the sport or main event.

Quade Cooper is undoubtedly an athlete, so I'm sure if he really fancied a proper shot at boxing, he may be able to make a decent fist of it.
But fighting that guy damages his boxing career in a big way. A fat kid who looks totally out of shape as a boxing opponent? Seriously?
Hooroo - Green won by decison, but the decison went against most pundits view. One actually scored it 98-90 ... which is beyond a joke.
Outstanding pun in the first paragraph.

Obviously not on the latter point ... but it does make a joke of QC boxing in my opinion.
Your comments on the undercard are yet another reason as to why I firmly believe UFC is a far better option than boxing. But that's another discussion.

I think these novelty type fights on local cards are an attempt to create some extra interest to the average man on the street who probably knows more about footballers than boxers , in the hope of getting a few extra PPVs,
Non boxing fans tend to pay attention to it, die hard fans give it very little interest , roll their eyes and move on

How much would the guy who fought Quade have been paid do you think?
A packet of durries and a case of XXXX
Totally worth it then. I probably would have pushed for a week's worth of big macs too but he is an athlete so not surprised he didn't.

@antipodean Blimey how old is that and what card is that?
I'm not saying there isn't some shitty fights out there ... but you aren't going to see something like Quade Vs Fat Kid 2 fights before the main event at any UFC.

UFC 166 Nelson vs Cormier apparently.

You arent going to get it on the big international promoters cards either,
Seems to be an obsession of local promoters Khoder Nasser and Duco
