澳大利亚原住民拳击传奇托尼·蒙迪内(Tony Mundine)于周日因心脏病发作去世,享年75岁。12 这位开创性的拳手的离世引发了来自拳坛、体育界及政界的广泛悼念。1
蒙迪内是澳大利亚体育史上的先驱者。2 他是澳大利亚第一位在四个不同体重级别中比赛的选手,职业生涯记录为80场胜利(其中64场以击倒获胜)、15场失利和1场平手。2 1974年,他曾与阿根廷的卡洛斯·蒙松争夺世界中量级拳王头衔,但该场比赛在第七回合被终止。2 蒙迪内出生于新南威尔士州北部格拉夫顿附近的巴里乌吉尔镇。2
蒙迪内建立了三代拳击家族。2 他的儿子安东尼·蒙迪内曾获得国际拳击组织中量级世界冠军和世界职业拳击协会超中量级世界冠军头衔。2 安东尼在社交媒体上悼念父亲时表示:"我不知道该说什么,我心碎了"和"爸爸我爱你,愿真主保佑你的灵魂。"2 他的孙子拉希姆上周在黄金海岸赢得了职业生涯第四场比赛的胜利。2
Tony Mundine, a trailblazing figure in Australian boxing and a member of the Bundjalung people, has died at the age of 75 following a heart attack on Sunday 12. The pioneering boxer passed away in hospital surrounded by family 1, prompting an outpouring of tributes from across the sporting world, political circles, and the entertainment industry 1.
Mundine's career achievements were substantial. He was the first Australian to compete across four different weight divisions 2, and in 1974 he challenged Argentina's Carlos Monzon for the world middleweight title, with the bout stopped in the seventh round 2. Over his professional career, Mundine recorded 80 wins—64 by knockout—alongside 15 losses and one draw 2. Born in Baryulgil near Grafton in northern New South Wales, he established a multi-generational boxing dynasty; his son Anthony became an IBO middleweight and WBA super-middleweight world champion 2, while his grandson Rahim won his fourth professional fight last week on the Gold Coast 2.
Following his death, Anthony Mundine posted on social media: "I don't know what to say, I'm broken" and "Dad I love you man, may Allah bless your soul" 2.
