probably because he's meant to be pretty good like his pa and if he can establish himself he will earn more in a few big fights than he has so far in his rl career.

getting punched in the head cannot be any worse than the pressure rugby puts on your body and he still has a few good years left in him in the boxing ring- ordinary harrison turned pro later than monty. also, perhaps he fancies a new challenge and the thoughts of going back to a relegation dog fight at wakey cant inspire him.

i wish him the best of luck and maybe we shall see him soon fighting over here- though he looked pretty handy on the pitch aswell.

He's a black belt in some martial art I know that, I think it's judo, although I could be wrong.
Also, its said that his father was also a boxer, so combime the two, and it's not hard to see why he fancies a change, plus there's a lot more money to be made if he can make the grade.

looks like this boxing bug is catching- solomon haumono has quit his contract at quins to go back to boxing according to the beeb.

think these two incidents hints at the shortage of cash in rugby league sadly :(
