What was the bigger farce? Green vs Briggs or SBW vs Botha?

IMO it's close but always felt the fight with Briggs was truly a disgusting effort by everyone involved, even Green's fake outrage was truly cringing to watch.

Green-Briggs the fake outrage he's nothing but a k9 and the very next day waving a DVD and telling us it was a legit punch. But this is yet another black eye for Aussie boxing. Can't blame the IBO for this one.

There is no comparison, Green v Briggs is Australian boxings darkest moment for sure

The K9 part was a bit laid on the thick though wasn't it? How come he just didn't call him a dog instead somethin that sounded watered down?

Who knows? He was seething with rage yet knew he was being televised and tried to sanitise it a bit maybe. Like he already said he was pissed off or pissed but then said jacked.

Green/Briggs for certain.
Fixing a fight for 2 healthy people is one thing, fixing a fight where one fighter is very unhealthy is bad.

The problem with these fix's, is how obvious it is.

greedy green v briggs was formally the shittest contest on record

dawsosj · 02-15-2013, 02:05 AM

green vs briggs was a farce like no other we have seen in this country

Stools · 02-15-2013, 02:23 AM

Most people on this forum were tipping Briggs to win, I'm certainly no big Green fan but maybe he just was wrong along with the rest of us on the true condition of The Hurricane. Yeah sure he tried to smooth shit over the next day but whay else would you do as a promoter, lose shitloads of money refunding all involved? Green Briggs was fucked but I don't think it was as bad as SBW v Botha.

Green vs Briggs is the worst bout In history
