Thoughts with Nick Blackwell

[Memphis]

Yes it's the reaction to the light, or lack of that indicates an issue (fixed and dilated). Good call on that by the way, would take seconds mid way through a fight.

The doctor can predict serious brain trauma by looking in the eye? Surely there's a limit to what they can determine? Blackwell was still talking to everyone when stretcherd out.

Its the Iris mate, in a concussed brain the pupil remains the same size when light is shone into it as the iris is unusually slow to react to light opening and closing. Its usually one eye that goes out opposite to the side the damage is on as each eye is connected with leads that cross into opposite sides of the brain.

Its an initial check for many things, stroke too. As well as being able to answer simple questions. So could be an idea for refs to check a few answers when they go into the fighters change rooms separately prior to fight. Whats the date today? Do you know your mothers maiden name, how many siblings you got etc.

If they cant answer the same questions as easy in between some hard rounds they probably got their bolts shaken loose and need to be watched a touch closer.

I also think that because Nick Blackwell is white, blonde haired and good looking a bigger fuse is made of this, than would have been if had looked like Nikolay Valuev.

I think had this been the other way round, Eubank Jnr who is black (Well mixed raced) I think their would have been many people even happy.

Do you think there would have been even more fuss if his name is Whitewell?

Yes defiantly , the fact that he is white is why its getting to much coverage , nothing to do with the fact people offer their best wishes because it was a terrible injury suffered to a likeable young boxer.

Do you ever look at any situation without trying to shoehorn someones race into it?

Fair play to you it worked! 👏👏You had people biting. I prefer to laugh.
Some things you come up with are genuinely fair comments .
But nobody takes you serious because you throw in Laughable , unfounded drivel like this. 😂

You dont do black skinned people any favors crying in the wrong places about it.

Just in case you ever want to write into the correct places to vent get the following lot correct and they will take you more seriously.

Its 'there' in that situation you used.

EG: Their white racist boxing game is full of white mans rules over there,they're racist cunts.

By the way,we are talking boxing and the safety of ALL fighters.

The same as you stating some white fans wouldnt give a fuck if it was Eubank the same goes for some blacks regards a white fighter they wouldnt give a fuck. That is those type of people,black and white and those types are both no help to the cause of multiculturalism they are the ones who do nothing for anyone and point the finger so they can continue doing nothing but that.

Meanwhile the real people who are civil and smarter get on with their lives and sports and relate to all colors equally as you see with the Blacks that rule and lead where ever they choose to. (No one is stopping anyone from achieving on color of skin any more).

There are millions of black people out there putting in the hard yards kicking total ass in whatever they choose to do even ones who have walked out of the hood and left that mentality of poor me behind them. More so in this sport than any,music maybe not but thats not sport.

Think about it, the worlds open, but only if you head out with an open mind. Those type of black people who achieve greatness know every ones mind is the same, they are like parachutes they dont work when they are closed they go nowhere but round and round in circles and down which is also exactly what happens when you get caught living in a blame cycle.
