Wide World of Sports spoke in length to Zerafa ahead of the bout against 45-year-old Mundine,And when it does, Zerafa's tone gets a little more fervent and his delivery speeds up right before he explodes into a rant about a potential fight against his bitter rival who is regarded as Australia's pound-for-pound king.
The deal was if Teixera came through the fight with Castano, Tszyu would be next in line. Now that Castano has taken the belt, Zerafa believes Tszyu's chances of a title shot in the near future are gone and that means he can't avoid him anymore. "Teixera and Tszyu's team worked out a negotiation, if we beat Castano we'll give you a shot but now that he got beaten, Castano's like 'I'm the champion I don't need to do anything'."
"I'd love to shut up. I don't think many people like him. It doesn't progress my career though. I really want the big fights. "Last time my manager said 'we don't want the whole pie but we need to get a slice' and we've been backward and forwards with the purse," he added.
And what happens when Anthony_Mundine beats him
