    Just listening to the ref in the fight, Pat Russell.
    They are interviewing him now on fox.

    He said he was concerned for Briggs and that he has no
    doubt that Briggs was in trouble.

    They are interviewing Fenech now, he is just bagging the
    IBO out now, saying that Green is a disgrace.

    This is so shocking... how can people even claim this wasn't a dive?! It's almost as crazy as calling a cat a dog!

    Briggs should be banned from training and should be taken to court a sued by all the people that paid for this fight for fraud... what a coward!

    If it's not a dive, then Briggs is way more ****ed up than we thought before. The shot landed right on the top (towards the front) of the head, pushing his head straight down onto the neck. A power shot there would do massive damage, but this was just a jab.

    If it was a dive, why then, why that shot, the fight just started, he could have left himself open for something to make it legit.

    But if they knocked him out, how did he handle sparring?
