That's very twisted. Learned a long time ago to look at "boxing commissions" based in the Mideastern region of the States with a fixed side eye. Always loaded with lopsided cannon fodder type opponents. But in this instance, they just said fuq it, let's make it a local celebrity event. All centered around "setting a boxing record" . Print and local media getting involved for the real life version of Weekend at Bernie's and losing site that a man's brain is being sloshed around when getting punched in the head. Even more vulture like is he apparently had zero amateur experience let alone any extensive training. Ffs he even came into the ring with one of his eyes blackened! Christy Martin is the local matchmaker, but she and the commission need a refresher course in common sense and basic right and wrong.

Every man/woman has a right to make a living. But that isn't it. You don't play boxing or experiment with it and I'd put a lot of this fiasco at the feet of people that know better in the sport giving life and entertaining the new crap wave of "influencer, youtube" crapola we see every weekend now. Oh you watched some how-to vids and read a guide or two ?...well step right up and one of these half-ass unknown platforms and used car salesman promotions will provide you a stage. The end of the vid is pretty unsettling. It was literally slo mo as England soft staggered sideways obviously out with no idea what was going on. The ref knew and even his opponent put arms on him to steady and direct him somehow.
