This Danny Green vs Paul Briggs. Paul was a world champ kickboxer before making the transition to boxing in the 90's. He retired a few years ago with a medical problem and most said that he would never fight again (I believe it had to do with brain injuries and possible death). Somehow 3 yrs later he got medical approval to fight and then this happened. Most in Australia speculate that he just needed a pay day and did what he needed to do to get a paycheck. Australian boxing has taken a beating and many believe that it is a dying sport in Australia, due to putting on events like this.

This is pretty much all that is being said about it in Australia at the moment.

"A test of how tough a man is, is not how much punishment he can dish out, but how much he can take."

couldn't tell because of the graphic being in the way but it looked like his knee went out

11th dan in Parnes Jiu-Jitsu, it's one more than Ransom's. Real PJJ goes to 11!

That guy could have hit me in the face with that glancing forehead shot for 12 rounds and not knocked me out. Total BS. If that would of happened in a big time St. Louis Boxing match, there would have been riots and some one would of probably gotten shot afterwards. That is just sad for boxing in general.
