'Ginormous pussycat': Mundine, Green trade blows

Life in the jungle just got a whole lot harder for Anthony Mundine.

One week into his stint on reality TV show 'I'm a Celebrity, Get Me Out Of Here', Mundine has found himself face-to-face with his greatest rival, Danny Green.

In a promotional clip released by the show, Danny Green is unveiled as the show's newest intruder, to the obvious disgust of Mundine.

As expected, it didn't take long for the fiery pair to trade verbal barbs.

“I’ll whip your arse,” Mundine told Green.

“We could walk up the hill and do it now, Choc, no problems,” Green responded.

“I’m not doing it for free, I want to get paid for this,” Mundine said.

'The Man' then declared Green the biggest cat in the jungle, saying "he's one ginormous pussycat."

There are sure to be more headline moments between the pair as they attempt to live with each other on the show.

Mundine wasted no time causing controversy when he entered the show as an 'intruder', dropping a sexist rant just minutes into his stint.

Just one day after he said gays are "confusing to society", Mundine once again got his name in the headlines by telling female contestants on 'I'm a Celebrity' to cook and clean for him.

“I just kick back and relax while women cook and clean. That is my attitude,” Mundine said.

Mundine's comments drew cheers from Bernard Tomic, however another male contestant said he still had to help out around camp, "we gotta do some chores", he said.

Mundine was having none of it.

"I'm the leader bruzz, I'm the leader, I say what's going on," Mundine replied.

"You should be doing your work, you should do what you gotta do. Cook, clean. Women gotta cook and clean alright," Mundine said to a female contestant.

"I'm just bringing old-fashioned back... there's roles, there's equality but there's roles.

"The men hunt, the men provide everything, and the women (they do) domestic duties."

Not surprisingly Mundine's comments were instantly met with backlash from the female contestants, leaving Mundine to argue that he is indeed very respectful.

"I'm very respectful, I'm the most respectful cat out there," Mundine argued.

But people were having none of it on social media, immediately calling out the former NRL star for his backwards attitude.

Only 24 hours earlier, the 42-year-old this time took aim at the homosexual population, saying they are "confusing to society".

“My biggest fear is Allah and if Allah prohibits it, then it’s wrong," Mundine told Fairfax Media.

"I was always taught that two genders together is natural; it’s what’s meant to be. Male and male, or female and female, is just confusing to society."

Mundine then attempted to soften his stance by insisting he has no personal problem with gay people, and that one of his friends is in fact gay.

"That’s their prerogative; all I can do is warn them," Mundine said.

“I always tell my gay friend, ‘You’ve got to find a lady…god will judge you, not me.’”

Mundine also criticised the ABC for "promoting" homosexuality, particularly to young people.

In the same interview 'The Man' argued the media perpetuate an image of him that in no way reflects who he really is.
