ANTHONY Mundine never saw the left hook that decked him coming from Garth Wood.
The unheralded Wood matched artistry with brutality in his execution of a sizzling combination of punches that took months in the planning. Devised by trainer Billy Hussein and cornerman Jeff Fenech, it planted the most unlikely of knockouts right on Mundine's chin.
Wood, having trapped Mundine on the ropes on Wednesday night, threw punches from angles that would have baffled Pythagoras.
A right cross followed by a right rip had stiffened Mundine like a well prepared pavlova, then the left hook reduced the world champion to a marshmallow.
Wood credits hours of watching tapes of Mundine fights with Hussein and Fenech, the former triple world champion, for the game plan that ultimately led to Mundine's downfall in Sydney.

"Jeffery would come into the gym from day to day and give his opinion," Wood said yesterday.
"And every night before I went to bed I'd watch most of Mundine's fights when he was at his best against the likes of Antwun Echols and Danny Green.
"But then I watched his later fights where I thought he started to fall away against Ryan Waters and Daniel Geale. I watched the Geale fight pretty closely, the way he cut the angles."
Fenech and Hussein proved great teachers to Wood, who grew up in working class Alexandria, the ex-footballer who was graded by South Sydney rugby league at just 16.
"I virtually grew up in Newtown Police Boys club watching Jeff Fenech and Jeff Harding train for their world titles," Wood said.
"I always had it in me of wanting to be a boxer, but . . . Dad was never keen on me wanting to be a fighter." Under the guidance of Fenech and Hussein, Wood is expected to be given a title shot in the middle of next year. He's not ruled out a rematch with Mundine, but adds, "on my terms".
"Jeff has been a close friend of mine and my family, even when I was playing football, he was supportive of whatever I wanted to have a go at," Wood said.
He said he had the self-belief before Wednesday's fight that he could beat Mundine, despite being rank outsider.
"I later heard from Khoder (Nasser), Mundine's manager, that the left hook was a lucky punch, but if there's a tip I can give Anthony it would be to disregard anything his manager says, because I don't think he's got a clue about boxing," he said.
"If anything he should listen to his old man (Tony). I'd been preparing for this fight for 12 months, and day after day I was going over in my head how I was going to take down Mundine."
For Wood, who has gone from being The Contender reality television series winner, to having pulled off a most improbable upset, the hard work now begins, in and out of the ring.
Away from the hours of training, he set about repairing his fractured relationship with partner Melissa, and has started to see more of his two daughters, Mia, 11, and Billie, 8.
GARTH WOOD controversially floored Anthony Mundine in the fifth round of their fight at Acer Arena last night to score one of the biggest upsets in Australian boxing history.
It had been an ugly fight, dominated by complaints from Mundine about Wood's wrestling tactics and blows to the back of the head, but when the three-time world champion fell to the canvas 58 seconds into the fifth round there was stunned silence among the big crowd. It appeared that a blow to the back of the head sent Mundine to the canvas.
The rematch is official with Anthony Mundine vs. Garth Wood II set for April 13 at the Brisbane Entertainment Centre. Reality show winner Garth Wood caused one of the biggest boxing upsets in Australian history when he knocked out Mundine late last year.
That loss had him slip from the World Boxing Association's No.2 ranked junior-middleweight contender to No.9. The pair will announce details of the fight at a news conference today, where Mundine is expected to face questioning about whether his career is on the line if beaten again by the former South Sydney fullback who earned his shot against the three-time world champion by winning The Contender reality television boxing series.
The fifth-round knockout has cost Mundine a potential world title bout, while elevating Wood into ninth position in the WBA's middleweight rankings. Before his December 8 bout with Mundine, which was fought at middleweight, Wood was not ranked in the top 15 by the main boxing organisations in any division.

Mundine, who had moved to junior-middleweight following last January's win over Robert Medley, was ranked the No.2 contender after wins over Carlos Adan Jerez and Ryan Waters. Had he beaten Wood, the 35-year-old former NRL star was set to bring WBA junior-middleweight champion Rigoberto Alvarez to Australia early this year.
He then planned to head to the US with a world title and train under the legendary Angelo Dundee, who was in Muhammad Ali's corner for all but two of his 61 fights. Dundee, who Mundine knows through Russell Crowe, also trained Sugar Ray Leonard, among others.
However, Mundine's loss to Wood enabled the WBA's No.1 contender, Austin Trout, to challenge Alvarez and the American won a unanimous points decision in Mexico on February 5.
Mundine will be keen to fight Trout but he must first overcome Wood, who shocked the boxing world when he knocked The Man to the canvas in the fifth round of their bout at Acer Arena.
On April 13th at the Brisbane Entertainment Centre in Queensland, Australia WBA#9 Middleweight Garth Wood (10-1-1, 6KO’s) meets Anthony Mundine (40-4, 24KO’s) in a highly anticipated rematch over ten rounds. The 32 year old Wood shocked the Australian boxing public when he knocked out the former two time WBA 168 pound and IBO 160 pound champion Mundine in the fifth round in December 2010. The first fight was the contracted prize for Wood after winning the popular Australian “Contender” Series and he took the opportunity with a stunning left hook that knocked out Mundine.
Wood spoke to Fightnews from his camp about his preparation and his anger about Mundine’s excuses about why he lost in their first fight.
He stated, “I am putting myself through torture in the gym to get in the best physical shape I can for this fight. As a team we are leaving no stone unturned and will be fully prepared to show the boxing world and Mundine that his excuses for losing the first fight just won’t wash. I have had some of the best sparring in my career for this camp and we have trained in Thailand to get my body in peak physical condition. This is a fight I can’t lose – and won’t lose. Some people think the pressure is all on me now after winning the first fight but I thrive on pressure. I know I am a raw fighter and only half way to being the finished article but I am a happy fighter and a dangerous one for Mundine. There will be no excuses this time when he loses.”
He added, “Mundine has convinced himself that he wasn’t right physically or mentally for our first fight and that just disrespects me and my achievement. He is just lying to himself that the reason he lost was that he wasn’t mentally up for the bout. If that is the case then this is a dangerous sport and perhaps he needs to retire and get out of the sport. Whether you are fighting Jo Blo or Muhammed Ali you should always be focussed and at your best because if you are not you could get badly injured. This is a hurt sport – not tiddlywinks. It wasn’t like it was a close points loss in December – I knocked him clean out. No excuses. To make excuses like he has just disrespects me and fuels my motivation to win – again.”
As a consequence of defeating the highly ranked Mundine in December, Garth Wood now hold a WBA#9 ranking and believes he can win a world title for Australia in the near future.
“Once I have defeated Mundine for the second time my focus is then to secure a world title shot and bring the middleweight title back to Australia. I am probably only 50% of where I can take boxing and winning the rematch can probably enhance my rankings further. Being a world champion is my ultimate goal,” he confirmed.
There is some talk in Australia that if Wood can win the rematch then a lucrative match with Danny Green could be an option.
He stated, “I hope by the end of my career I will be considered one of the best fighters Australia has seen and Danny is a boxing hero in our land. The weight difference currently from Cruiserweight to Middleweight in huge but I could fight Danny half-way if it made financial sense- I would be crazy to move up to a much higher weight and in reality I couldn’t probably get there anyway. It would be a great fight for all the boxing fans in Australia and I was reading how Danny lost 12kg with his recent illness so I am not sure at what weight he plans to fight when he returns.”
The fight with Mundine is available on PPV in Australia on Main Events and is expected to sell out the Brisbane Entertainment Centre on April 13th.
