[QUOTE="nickdnz, post: 482885, member: 38640"] One thing I'll mention about those three boxers. No ones ever paid $39.95 for one of their fights (except Betham's Fight for Life), and no one has gone for the NZ heavyweight ***le against hand picked opponents. Betham fought Shane Cameron knowing he'd probably lose or get knocked out, SBW fought Ryan Hogan. Had SBW done boxing without the hype that the Mundines and Khodar Nessar put on him and without the expensive PPV's, he wouldn't get criticized. As it is, Nessar said that in a years time SBW will be trying to contend for the heavyweight ***le of the world, and Mundine keeps comparing him to Ali... It doesn't matter what he says, it's what he does. You can't hand pick opponents for five fights, go for a New Zealand Heavyweight Championship, charge for PPV's and expect to be taken seriously as a boxer. Also despite Betham's age, he quit Rugby League to do boxing. That's dedication. If SBW quit rugby today and wanted to take boxing seriously, best of luck to him. [/QUOTE]
