    Tragic news,paul was such a heart on sleeve fearless warior.

    But him having a specialist helmet and some danger coming might have saved him.

    says on the scene he was going to his brothers wedding i think.

    Hes a fighter and whether or not he can win his fight to ever be able to walk agian you just know he will try his hardest to fight to win.

    Hes a weathly man and science and medicine never stops advancing.

    Maybe someone in the industry can help in some way to keep active in boxing as in being a commentator or something/anything.

    Yea I've fallen off once ( not my fault ) and I agree with you they can be very dangerous in untrained hands, plus you have all us usless car drivers to look out for that's why i seldom ride a bike here on the British roads , up in the hills of Corfu is a different thing though mate they can be a very enjoyable mode of transport if you can keep your head .

    Very sad news, very sad, man I hate bikes, your life is on 2 wheels at crazy speeds, just don't make sense, any crash on them it's most times very bad news.


    Prayers go out to him and his loved ones.

    I have never quite understood the appeal of motorbikes, I once crashed a Pooch Maxi peddle and pop through a fence at 25 mph, It hurt like **** and I broke my arm, if I was going any faster I could have got seriously hurt, that put me off to be fair.

    I always been a car guy, my younger brother used to hang around mates who used to **** around on bikes alot, he fell off a few times thankfully nothing serious.

    Bikes are just too dangerous in my books.

    When I was an apprentice my mentor was a bloke called Alan Osbourne, he was the nicest bloke you could meet, wouldn't hurt a fly and lived for his family, he also had a love for bikes, he had a few crashes in the past and promised his wife Sue that he would leave the bikes alone, anyway a year or so later, he was at the isle of man and hired a bike to do the course out there, and as there are no speed limits on certain roads, he pushed it a bit too far and collided head on with a motor coming the other way, killed Alan stone dead while the bloke in the car walked away with a few bruises. It just go's to show.

    That's really bad sad to hear, yeah what can I say, we are much better protected in a car, I drive a BMW 5 series, I love it too bit's the thing is a tank, I feel safe in it, I feel safe knowing if my brothers driving my car are safe in it too.

    Put your seatbelt on and say your blessing, God help I stay safe.
