Anthony Mundine has quit I’m A Celebrity … Get Me Out Of Here!, making him the third contestant this season to drop out of the jungle reality TV show.
The Daily Telegraph reports the boxer exited the show ‘within hours’ of completing the viper room challenge.
The 42-year-old was one of the series’ most controversial contestants, raising eyebrows for his comments about women.

Channel Ten confirmed Anthony had quit the jungle on Thursday, tweeting: ‘THE MAN IS OUT! Tonight, Anthony Mundine dramatically says the words and walks out of the jungle.’
Anthony quit the jungle after less than a fortnight, his sudden departure causing the show’s creators to halt voting for the boxing star.
Anthony joins Bernard Tomic and pop singer Tiffany Darwish in exiting the show voluntarily rather than being voted out.
It is the first time in I’m A Celebrity’s four year history that contestants have quit the show.
