    Lyle I am not a vegan many people on earth are. I am sure you will get used to it.

    The Kronk gym wars certainly didn't help... just look at Thomas Hearns who can barely speak he's so punch drunk.

    Equating torturing animals for entertainment with eating them is a nonsense argument. We live in a western society where it's now the norm - in my experience - that we refuse to eat/buy eggs if the animals value of life hasn't been respected let alone if it's been killed in an inhumane manner. There's no hypocrisy there whatsoever. However, what animals we should/should'nt choose to eat/wear is a totally different argument.

    G-Man sticks his mouth piece out under distress against Jackson exactly how he did against Benn, so it's hard to say he should have been pulled out due to body language, which takes the blame off the shit trainer. And the ref getting blamed is ridiculous. He wouldn't even make the top 10 worst ref jobs on any given weekend let alone the horror job it's made out to be.

    But how about the blinking?

    Did he blink excessively in any of his previous fights?

    That is a sign of brain trauma which must have happened during the Benn fight.

    Pretty sure you can see him do it in interviews long before the fight. Liam Willaims, a young British fighter, does the same/similar.

    I'm rather hoping that isn't a direct reference to me.

    I have a lot of skinhead friends but this is what happens when people throw generalisations around. I expect the tree hugging student types posting here are not too happy with being compared to pests that need shooting either.

    Have to go with the elephant in the room and as fierce a fighter as he proved, Gerald could also blow up between fights and drained down a bit and aside from Jackson had faced -zero- the fighter of a Benn. This was his huge step up not Benns.

    I think even the top neuro surgeons would be hard pushed to identify one specific cause of such catastrophic injuries. Even in people not engaging in sports that cause head trauma damage is not always an event based single trauma. When they opened up my Mrs head they found several older aneurysms that had occurred before the one that took her down. She had run and Hit punch bags etc but never sparred or even fell off a push bike etc. McCellan had sparred God knows how many rounds, fought many fights with people trained to try and inflict brain damage, which is what kos are when you strip away the pretty language. So the big surprise is really that it does not happen to many others.

    I'm very sorry to hear about your wife. Brain aneurysms are terrifying stuff. Unpredictable.

    Thank you mate. 26 years ago now and she is still bending me ear Understanding of brain injuries, strokes etc is much better now and if they can treat people early the prognosis is often very good. The BBBOC insistence on havng paramedics ringside and an ambulance ready to take fighters to hospital here, is a very positive move that has undoubtedly save many from serious life long injury and death. but it will always be a dangerous way to earn a living.
