    Listen, Briggs is a grown man and he was going through with the fight. He accepted Greens offer before he had a trainer. Briggs team knew he wasn't right to fight. What do you do? Atleast when you are in the corner you have some control over what happens.

    Tell that to Lance Hobsons father.

    As I said, a few jolting punches and Paul Briggs may have seen the same fate.

    Why dont' you try to answer a straight forward question?

    It's unbelievable Briggs team weren't having doubts about Briggs ability, physical, mental and financial situation.

    What are your thoughts here?

    What's your question? You're asking something we all know the answer to. His team knew he wasn't right to fight. What's your point?

    They Knew they had a few people give them feed back from watching him spar as well as Youtube footage taped by Zelke and posted on Youtube by Ty, it was just thought he would put up a credible showing and last at least a few rounds

    What's your opinion on a trainer and corner team apparently knowingly taking fighter into the ring with doubts surrounding thier ability, physical and mental.

    ****ing hell I've answered this question about ten times since the fight. They helped him get a payday. The payday that green created for him. I think green is responsible because he created the situation. Briggs couldn't say no to that money, his team knew it was gonna be them on his team or someone else, regardless the fight was happening. Atleast with his friends in his corner if something went down they would be there to help. Now tell me what part is so hard to understand?

    The part where you haven't answered the question.

    What's your opinion on a trainer and corner team apparently knowingly taking fighter into the ring with doubts surrounding thier ability, physical and mental.

    Think of this as a generic question which could apply to any trainer and corner team...now focus!

    ive said before.....

    there were two heavyweight title fights for sick fighters. one was dying of kidney failure, the other was going blind. they were basically 'charity' matches for sick ex fighters. what briggs and green have done is not much different. its just now that powerful people run legalised gambling.........get it?
