    James Packer doesn't lose u dope, he owns a part of BETFAIR (roughly 40-50% of the Australian operation) which trades for the punter taking a percentage of a winning bet, there is no liability concerns as they are the middle man between someone placing a bet and someone laying a bet.

    Depending on the member's turrnover it can range beteen 1-4%

    If your going to talk out of school do your research dumbarse.

    Better still, i run gambling seminars for the dummies :yep

    According to Green it was a legit punch, his got the DVD to prove it lol... just pay the man and be done with it imo.

    Left Jab wont be saying much on this matter, he was one of the guys who was strongly defending this matchup with Briggs.

    Briggs took a dive its as clear as crystal, Green even knew it and in the heat of the moment he let Briggs know how he felt, but the next day after being spoken to by his handlers and advised of how bad this looked for Green he retracted his statment, waved the DVD in the air and claimed the punch was legit, similar to a Brain stem injury.

    As for the "soft spot" part of the head, someone should tell Danny that this spot only exists in new born babys because the skull has not properly formed. So where the fark is this Soft Spot he speaks of in Full Grown Men?

    Many Green fans ducked for cover after this farce and indeed they should do so, others protested they were no longer Green fans whilst others just stoped posting all together about it because they were so embarased and pretty much owned by those in the forums who told them this bout should not be going ahead, the same guys who threw sht on the NSW boxing commission for refusing to sanction this fight.

    Still no final word on that it seems.

    Biggest danger is a finding that concludes nobody's to blame and as a result nothing changes. This would leave the door wide open for a similar farce occurring in future, with the associated betting plunges etc.

    briggs has been pauid $50k. interesting question re where it goes- it goes to the WA Bxoxing Commission but who knows where from there?! Dare say they will pay costs which would have to be $100k as the investigation has been 8 weeks and ex supreme court judges don't come cheap!! if briggs qas that hard up %50k is enough for him.

    first time ever TC I hear what your saying. Lebanese gang and hey who is Briggs coach? a piece of ****! should be looking at him very closely.

    My understanding is that all monies/profits from the fight have been frozen until the investigation is wrapped up.
    If no charges are recommended by the commission Paul will be paid his full entitlement of 200k.

    And explain why you'd tell the Akkawy brothers, whom you always insist you have the utmost respect for, that it is me posting as TCboxa???

    Why lie to them?
