Anthony "Tony" William Mundine OAM (born 10 June 1951)[1] is an Australian former boxer, and one of the country's most accomplished indigenous fighters. The only Australian boxer to compete professionally in four weight divisions, he held the Australian middleweight, light heavyweight, cruiserweight and heavyweight titles, as well as the Commonwealth middleweight and light heavyweight titles.[2]

Rugby

Mundine played centre three-quarter for a Grafton Rugby League team. He showed promise and was offered a place with the Redfern All Blacks in the South Sydney Junior Rugby League in 1968 at age 17. Rather than return to Baryulgil to work at the asbestos mine between seasons he kept fit at Ern McQuillan's gym in Newtown, where he showed natural ability and speed. McQuillan engaged him in a fighter-trainer contract.[2][3][4]

Boxing

Mundine won his first bout on 5 March 1969 against Frank Graham. In less than a year he won his first title, the Australian Middleweight crown.[4] His last bout was against Alex Sua on 19 March 1984.

His titles were:

Mundine challenged Carlos Monzón on 5 October 1974 for the WBA World Middleweight title but lost to a knockout in the 7th round. He was undefeated by any Australian boxer during his 16-year career.[6] He fought many top boxers including Emile Griffith, Monty Betham, Steve Aczel, Bennie Briscoe and Alex Sua.[7]
