Jeff Horn: The Hornet Of Brisbane-The Sunshine State Exterminator-Fighting Schoolteacher Of Oz.

Duco and Lonergan made the fight. Arum didn't put up a cent. It was down to Duco courting the various sponsers and putting everything together. Sure Arum had to agree to get Manny in the ring. But the fact was Duco put the deal together and showed Arum how they make it work.

 

Freddie didn't like Horn's colored hand wraps. The adrenaline they use for cuts isn't illegal either. This was Freddie doing mind games just like he was trying with Floyd. Nobody expected Horn to even go past 4 or 5 rounds. There was nothing illegal going on. There was no conspiracy. They would not have picked Jeff Horn for a fight to set up. No way.

 

Horn's father admitted that they used an illegal mix of adrenaline.

 

Correct, and getting the Queensland govt to put up their financial guarantee was what got it over the line with Arum.

 

Adrenaline Chloride is used for cuts not swallowing. As far as I know its perfectly fine to use it to stop bleeding. That was the context Horns father was using when he mentioned adrenaline. For stopping the bleeding. Some cut men mix it with petroleum jelly.

 

Correct mate. The Association of Boxing Commissions has approved three coagulants/coagulates for use:

1/ Adrenaline Chloride
2/ Aventine
3/ Thrombin

Adrenaline Chloride is used by cut-men to make the capillaries smaller to limit blood flow to the wound.

 

If it was legal why didn't Horn's team tell Roach that?

 

Adrenaline Chloride is used broadly and it is approved.

Roach has been around long enough that he doesn't need anyone to tell him that.

 

Here is an article on the subject:

Dipping cotton swabs in it and placing them in the nostrils where the substance can be inhaled seems to be a fairly common practice according to the article.

 

Cut-men usually carry 3 mL vials of Adrenaline Chloride. To prep a swab you remove the rubber stopper from the vial, dip your swab in the bottle and apply the swab with direct pressure to the boxer's cut.

Naturally some of the solution can potentially enter the blood stream.

 

Yeah can't argue with that.

 

If you think Nelson's performance was fantasy then how about explaining the reality of it.

 

The Adrenaline Chloride conspiracy theory sure amounted to nothing.

 

Just swept under the rug like the rest of the corruption
