ADELAIDE: <\/strong>Collingwood legend Dane Swan admitted "money talks" and he could be tempted to fight again after making short work of ex-teammate Dale Thomas at The Gathering<\/em> on Wednesday night.<\/a><\/p>\n

Swan, 40,\ufeff impressed with his sharp footwork and wide array of punches against a game but overmatched Thomas, winning by unanimous decision after four rounds.<\/p>\n

"It felt good. A couple of nerves when I got in there, but once the bell goes, like playing footy, you forget about the crowd," Swan said.<\/p>\n

\"Dane<\/p>\n

"I really enjoyed it. I wish I could have done a couple more rounds. I'm not a mean spirited or aggressive person so it's hard to walk in there and try and hit a mate. I just wanted to show some of the skills that I've learned. I didn't really want to make it a street fight."<\/p>\n

Swan used boxing to keep fit during his illustrious AFL career and said he hadn't lifted a weight since retiring.<\/p>\n

His dazzling performance and high profile will no doubt attract more boxing offers but Swan was loath \ufeffto call out a prospective opponent.<\/p>\n

"Boxing is way harder than what we do," Swan said.<\/p>\n

"I've got three young kids under three. Money talks, but I'm very happily retired, undefeated."<\/p>\n

Not shy on letting his hair down, Swan planned to celebrate his win with gusto although it might not quite match his recent 40th birthday.\ufeff<\/a><\/p>\n

\"Dane<\/p>\n

"I don't know if Adelaide on a Wednesday night compares to Vegas. But we'll make the most of the situation we've put ourselves in."<\/p>\n
