    I agree with Ty in that we should stay on topic here. If you want to bring up his failed boxing career do it in a PM coz frankly, sir, i dont give a damn. What Ty does in his private life, who he has a grudge against, who he's squabbling with, who's hamster he's been molesting, all that doesnt concern me. However what happened on the night of the Briggs fight is in the public eye. What has bee reported regarding the Sword Boys is in the public eye. What Billy Hussein does and says, esp. relating to this fight, is in the public eye. That I want to know. And yes I even want know peoples opinion on the matter. If I start to see newspaper headlines containing the words Ty Cerminera (sp?) then I might cast a 2nd glance. At that point you're welcome to throw those petty comments about his private life around here.

    Ty, dont take this as me defending you in any way. You've crossed the line on many occasions yourself, but I do agree it needs to be kept on topic...

    Nah, this is good, TC ****** boy's getting pwned from pillar to post - he keeps saying he's not going to take their bait then he writes a novel in reply :lol:

    He's a self-important over-opinionated arsehole who constantly tries to pass off gossip and innuendo as fact, hoping that he'll be the first with the scoop if it turns out to be true so he can look for credit from everyone.

    The way he flip flops between acting as if he's some sort of objective rational commentator on these events and the actual nasty little piece of **** that he is when he does his sneaky internet dobbing and impersonations is funny, and it's good to see someone ripping strips off him like Johhny Boy :yep

    Keep it up fellas (you too TC ****** boy, you have my permission to reply :yep)

    Here's what you wrote:

    You have no proof Hussein was involved (which is why you used the word 'appear') but the fact you have no proof doesn't stop you from trying to infer that Hussein is a 'criminal', and citing a report written by the WAPCSC and a SkyNews article in the hope that it 'appears' you have official documentation to back up your spurious accusation.

    Here's what I wrote:

    In no way do I accuse Hussein of being involved in the betting scam, nor do I call him a criminal - I simply said it wasn't out of the question that he could have links to the Lebanese gang named as the group that placed the bets.

    You wrote:

    I never agreed with you on anything ya dumb mother****er, you just took the bait hook, line and sinker as per usual, ya ****ing snapperhead :lol:

    Then you use a quote that is apparently from another forum to back up your claims that Hussein was involved in the betting scam.

    You have no grasp of the concept of the law, you just jump in feet first and post your biased bull**** in the hope that someone takes you seriously. No one here has yet :hey

    You would be absolutely ripped to shreds on the witness stand if you ever appeared in court, you're a ****ing stupid pelican who thinks he's smart :deal

    Brua 2 + 2 = 4 now take your own advice and fck off! lol

    This article was a funny read!

    "I DON'T know what to say. I hit him with some good shots and when that happens you can see their heart shrivel up. Most guys want to keep fighting. They'd rather eat it than dog it, but unfortunately he didn't show a lot of heart."
    Danny Green talking about Paul Briggs in Perth on Wednesday night? Nope. Paul Briggs talking about Jose Alberto Clavero in Brisbane on June 16, 2006.

    Clavero was a blow-in from Argentina who was disqualified in the fifth round for refusing to fight. It was a performance that disgusted everyone who saw it. Everyone, that is, except Anthony Mundine, who gave Clavero a shot at his world title on the strength of it.

    Still, at least he went five rounds before quitting, unlike Briggs on Wednesday night. His pathetic 29 seconds of shame will live forever.

    And the person who should carry that shame the most is Danny Green.

    Back on May 17, 2006, I was one of the 30,000-odd fight fans who made a pilgrimage to Sydney Football Stadium to watch a magnificent Mundine dismantle a menacing Green like a matador mesmerising an angry bull. It was one of the best nights of sport I have ever witnessed. It was intoxicating: the atmosphere, the celebrity-packed crowd, the triumph of athleticism over violence.

    On that night Anthony Mundine and Danny Green held the future of Australian boxing in their gloved hands.

    I know there are plenty of people who abhor boxing. They don't consider it a sport and believe it should be banned. Wednesday night's farce just adds weight to their arguments, but back in May, 2006, Mundine and Green showcased the sport at its best.

    And just about every day since, they have shown it at its worst.

    Instead of using that night as a springboard to take their skills on to the world stage they have insisted on fighting, with a few exceptions, a collection of has-beens and never-wases, achieving nothing more than lining their own pockets and ripping off their loyal but gullible supporters.

    Not that it didn't attract the scorn of disgruntled punters. With each second-rate fight - and the obligatory claim that he was now ready to take on the world's best - Mundine's reputation dropped faster than the euro, yet the Green "brand" managed to stay immune to the criticism.

    To those who didn't know better he was, in effect, the "anti-Mundine"; a legitimate world champion who fought, as he put it, "whoever they put in front of me".

    Or he did until he and his handlers hit the jackpot, luring an over-the-hill Roy Jones Jr to Australia for an over-hyped mercy killing that netted a fortune and had them trawling the old-boxers' homes looking for similarly big-named cash cows. Happily, mooted bouts against Mike Tyson and Evander Holyfield never eventuated - or maybe they're too far gone to answer the phone. If only Paul Briggs hadn't answered his.

    How did Danny Green ever think this was a good idea?

    He must have known Briggs was damaged goods. Everyone else in boxing did. Three weeks ago a leading trainer told me he had watched Briggs sparring in preparation for the fight.

    "Something's not right there," he said. "It won't go two rounds."

    When I told him the NSW authorities were refusing to give Briggs a licence he answered, "Thank God."

    Sadly God didn't have the final say. Green simply went to where he is the Supreme Being - Western Australia - and got the fight sanctioned there. When

    he wasn't far off the money.

    Briggs was neither physically nor mentally fit. There are now genuine fears that the humiliation he suffered will have disastrous effects on an already troubled young man.

    Seconds after Briggs had been booed from the ring and pelted with garbage, Green told the crowd that "no one's as pissed off as me" and promised to make it up to them.

    How? By handing back their money? Of course not. By asking them to come back. Like Mundine, the man he has criticised for fighting bums, Green will simply go looking for someone else he can beat with as little trouble and as close to home as possible.

    The best thing Green and Mundine could possibly do is to fight each other, properly and honourably like they did in 2006, put the sport back where it was that night and walk away forever.

    It won't happen though. Even as we speak, poor Paul Briggs is too ashamed to show his face and Danny Green is looking for another bum.

    Jose Alberto Clavero should stay close to his phone.

    Heres anothe article on this subject thats quite intresting, even Green is giving it to Billy

    http://www.perthnow.com.au/sport/ot...paul-briggs-camp/story-fn4pw13c-1225896483784

    IBO cruiserweight champion Danny Green has fended off claims from the trainer of felled challenger Paul Briggs that his team was aware that the Queenslander had his back to the wall financially and was unfit to fight when approached by Green Machine Promotions.

    Billy Hussein, who led the Briggs' corner on Wednesday night as his long-time friend but first-time charge crumpled to the canvas in 19sec, said Green approached Briggs directly with an offer he could not refuse, luring the former world title challenger out of a three-and-a-half year layoff.

    "They (the Green camp) rang Paul direct, they negotiated through Paul, they offered Paul the money," Hussein said.

    "Paul called me and said: 'Billy, the deal's done, can you please help me prepare for this fight'.

    "If it was my decision whether to take the fight or not, no, I would have said no, no . . . I'm not going to put a guy in there for the slaughter.

    "He lives on a week-to-week basis, he hasn't got money, he's got no investments, he's got nothing to show for (his life in the ring).

    "So when somebody offers you x amount of dollars and you've never earnt that money in your life, it doesn't matter who it is, you're going to go ching-ching.

    "I wasn't going to let him go it alone - he could have gone with another trainer if I left him."

    Green countered the claim, saying it was Briggs who approached the WA fighter's camp.

    The under-siege fighter said that regardless of who approached whom Hussein had a responsibility to make any concerns known.

    "Paul Briggs came straight to us," Green said. "But regardless of whether Paul Briggs said he'd go it alone or not, why didn't Billy Hussein contact me? Why didn't he tell me all the facts, then this whole situation would have been avoided - I would have called the fight off.

    "Looking back now, I'm very sorry that it's ended this way."

    Hussein said footage of an underdone Briggs sparring a fortnight out from the Green bout had been captured on a mobile phone and leaked to the internet and was the basis for the NSW Combat Sport Authority's withdrawal of support for the fight.

    The trainer said the Green camp was aware of the video and was concerned for its upcoming opponent.

    "That was the rumour (that led to the venue change), the footage that was leaked and I'm not going to lie to you: it wasn't good footage and everyone was saying: 'Nah, we can't have this'," Hussein said. "Angleo (Green's trainer Angelo Hyder) was concerned and he rang me and said:, 'Billy, mate, what's that video doing on (the internet) ... we've somehow got to get it off'.

    "I said: 'Brother, how am I going to get it off? Don't go off that, mate, Paul Briggs is going well, don't worry'.

    "They were concerned."

    But Green said the Briggs camp's post-bout claims were vastly different to what was being advised throughout the fight's lead-up and the West Australian blasted the coach for neglecting his duty of care to the fighter.

    Green said.

    "If Billy Hussein was so concerned about his fighter's welfare, why didn't he approach me? He has my phone number.

    "If he told me just one of the things he's saying now, I would have called the fight off.

    This content is protected


    "I don't have a crystal ball ... I'm just focusing on defeating an opponent who's coming to take my title who's personally, him and his team, talking up how great their chances are."

    Hussein's calls come after the WA Professional Combat Sports Commission this week called for an inquiry into the fight to be headed by a retired Supreme Court judge, following the discovery of a text message that circulated on the morning of the fight recommending bets be placed on a first round KO victory to Green.

    TCBOXA is coping it in this thread and i don't understand why. I 100 % agree with him that Briggs took a dive and his team would have known about it. I am amazed that some people refuse to acknowledge or even consider that Briggs and his team did what they are being accused of.

    Francis, the guys throwing sht are freinds of Billy Hussein, other than Bruafag whos just joining in for the hell of it! I cant wait for the judge to release everything and finally expose the truth about this farce.

    I think the ONLY people you will find who would say it was not a dive and there was no betting plunge are the people from Billy Husseins camp! "One eyed Midgets living in the land of the blind!" i like to call em hahahaha

    Zelky Did yoU Tell BILLIE to get da new mobile phone? dont forget bro replace da sims card so dem copas dont see all da text messeges BILLIE been sendn to da sword boys!

    :lol:of course he took a dive.this thread is just a laugh.posters trying to PWN one another.i suppose the upshot is Danny is now fighting a legit,top 20 CW rather than Shane Cameron who didnt look great at 95kg against Ammann and who would look worse at the 90.6 CW limit.its an entertaining thread though.

    I believe he took a dive too. It can be seen in a previous post of mine.

    I just like to take the **** out of ****** boy because he frantically posts articles and forum quotes in an effort to back up his accusations towards Hussein when all anyone else is saying is that nothing has been proven yet and he should be careful in making these accusations as, according to his own admissions, Hussein knows who he is, and he could very well be up for slander/libel charges.

    He's too dumb to realise this though, and if he did he wouldn't allow it to hinder his efforts to get the scoop! :lol:

    The part in bold above just shows you know as much or as little as anyone else on here about this matter, yet it didn't stop you from implying that Hussein was directly involved and is a criminal.

    You're an idiot, crowing over something that has yet to be proven, and is unlikely to be. You need to develop a bit of patience instead of always seeking the glory by being the first to post the scoop. You should display some of the same patience you've used in approaching your pro debut :lol:

    Seriously doubt anyone will ever issue any meaningful findings in this.

    If anything's been pwned its boxing itself!
