Anthony Mundine made a triumphant return to the ring last night, beating journeyman Brad Mayo in a unanimous points decision in Townsville.

Mundine had the upper hand from the start but Mayo - who had not fought in a year - put in a gutsy effort to last the distance.

The judges returned decisions of 100-90, 100-91, 100-89.

The fight was Mundine's first since a 10th-round knockout by German Sven Ottke last December ended his bid for the world super-middleweight title.

It was hosted by Queensland because NSW officials refused on the basis of Mayo's poor record and inactivity, although no formal application was made.
The 28-year-old Mayo, a prison guard, hadn't fought since last March and had won just two bouts from seven during the past six years.

Mundine's record is now 11 wins from 12 fights, eight by knockout.

i wish him luck and i hope he does well in his boxing career. this is mainly because everyone doubted him, and he's shown that he CAN box.

otherwise, he's an idiot outside the boxing ring...

if The Mouth kept his mouth shut then more ppl would respect him more as a sports man.

Nope!! Bzzzzzt!!! Wrong!!! Mundine NEVER proved that he could box. His record of wins have all been against Neville Nobody's that couldn't punch a hole in wet tissue paper, just like this latest farce. The bouts have been basically setups to prop up his media image, and have had nothing to do with the sport of boxing.

His first REAL test was against our mate Sven, and he didn't stack up. Simple as that.

I respect the guy as a sportsman but I'm sooo glad he got knocked out by Ottke. He needed it royal IMO..

Big Deal, he beat an amature Prison officer. I heard he wanted to challenge Jeff Fenech. (NEWS FLASH He is retired). I don't think he is game to take one a real boxer. Look what happened last time. Mundine, your a wanker!!!!!!:dead: :dead: :dead:
