    Mundine is at it again fluffing his own pillows, whining about his league career claiming racism yet as pointed out chairman of selectors was aboriginal ( arty beetson), cant wait till this guy retires or actually fights somebody from the wbo or wbc..

    "You just want to hate because, I don't know, because I'm me, and I'm raw. I want the best fighters and the biggest tests. So what's going to get me up for this fight. That's what I need. That's all I need. I want the biggest stage, the biggest test. That's all I need. I don't need nothing else.

    "That's what gets me off because it's going to satisfy me so much that people like you, I'm going to prove wrong. And you keep writing, dog.

    "But tell me after this fight, when I win it, when I win it, I'm the best athlete ever, man. Ever. And if you give me the same accolades as Geale, you should."

    Me: "You say you're the best athlete ever but you're the only one that says it ... "

    Crowd interrupts.

    Me: "Well, can you name me one other person that has said it?"

    Mundine: "You name me someone that done what I did and conquered two sports like I did."

    Me: "Bo Jackson."

    Mundine: "That's team to team. We're going from a team to boxing."

    Me: "Ambrose Palmer."

    Mundine: "Never heard of him."Me: "Aboriginal boxer, also played AFL."

    Mundine: "Never heard of him. I'm talking world titles. I'm talking records, doing what I done. You know they gypped me in football, that's why I left the game.
    You had the (Australian) coach Chris Anderson coming out saying, 'We don't pick him because of his off-field characteristics'. I left it at its height, and I was the highest player in the league at the time. Money talks."

    Me: "You left the game because you said it was racist - and there were Aboriginals (sic) in front of you. The five-eighth in front of you was Aboriginal."

    Mundine: "How?"

    Me: "Laurie Daley."

    Mundine: "How was he Aboriginal? He didn't claim to be Aboriginal, he was like this fella (pointing to Geale). He never claimed to be Koori."

    Me: "The chairman of selectors was Arthur Beetson. How do you claim he was racist against you?"
    Mundine: "Because they're all Uncle Toms, baby, just like him (Geale). He's an Uncle Tom."

    Me: "You're saying Arthur Beetson was an Uncle Tom?"

    Mundine: "No, I'm saying they're joined to the system."

    Me: "Did you say Arthur Beetson was an Uncle Tom or not?"Mundine: "No, I'm saying there's Uncle Toms out there, there is Uncle Toms out there."

    Me: "Arthur Beetson was chairman of selectors."

    Mundine: "Yeah, but he don't make the decisions. He might be chairman of selectors but he don't make the decisions - it's set up to crumble, man."

    Me: "You're rewriting history."

    Mundine: "Listen, you just come Wednesday night and witness the best athlete you've ever seen. I'm a likeable guy, man. I'm easygoing, just down to earth. I give everybody time. But when you have people that want to see the downfall, want to wish bad, doubt you, criticise you - what I've done ain't ever been done."

    Me: "We want to see you finally do what you're saying you're going to do."Mundine: "You just be at the fight."

    Man in the crowd No.1: "Good questions, Paul."

    Man in the crowd No.2: "Nice Google searching, dickhead."
