    I'd give Green credit for at least being pissed off

    i reckon there is something really wrong with briggs .....hope im wrong
     
  5. Yeah, Briggs is a solid guy. In aus, Briggs is a sports commentator and boxing 'personality' This is very uncharacteristic.

    Maybe there really were health problems?

    Dive, no question about it. Look at the bombs he took from Adamek without flinching, he's not getting hurt from a grazing jab.

    If it's a dive then **** Briggs, but if it's a real health matter (Briggs had reported neurological troubles in the past) then **** Green and **** Briggs both for going ahead with the fight despite the N.S.W combat sport commission refusing to sanction the bout in sydney.

    this is terrible if he had planned on losing like that at least try and make it a war before getting a shot to the body or something

    didnt briggs and green get a guaranteed 1 million each for this?

    It looks like Briggs got hit in the temple with an elbow, completely by accident. I don't think it was a foul.

    Green's arm is bent on the jab, it grazes across the head, and follows past, and Green's elbow looks like it makes contact with the side of Brigg's head.

    Now, there's only one angle in that video, and other shots would be helpful.
