Mundine's boxing future in doubt
THE career of champion Australian boxer Anthony Mundine is in doubt because of a serious eye infection.
Seriously, 'The Man' talks so much **** that I wouldn't be washing anything in his mouth if I was him. What did he think would happen?
The WBA super middleweight champion and former rugby league star is in a Sydney hospital and is suffering from limited vision, the Nine Network reported tonight.
After a standard operation last week, Mundine's left eye reportedly became infected over the weekend after he removed a protective contact lens at a restaurant and cleaned it using his mouth.
Mundine re-entered the hospital yesterday and at one stage feared he may have to lose the eye.
"I feared the worst, I feared I could lose the eye," Mundine said.
Mundine also feared for his boxing career.
"I just felt that maybe this it for me," he said.
"The doctor said it could be weeks, could be months for the natural healing process to take place."
Mundine, renowned for his self-promotion and outspoken nature, admitted the experience had genuinely scared him.
"You put yourself in that situation and you think you're going to lose an eye, or a lot of your sight.
"You'd definitely be scared too, especially if you're 'The Man' Mundine."
