Paul Ingle - Does anyone care?

[smashup]

Makes me angry reading this as i remember coming in from a club and watching this unfold and my girlfriend started to cry when he was struggling to say something to his cornermen lying on the deck in the 12th (which he should never have been allowed to come out for imo).

I was at the fight. Yes it should have been stopped but there is nothing to say the clot hadn't already begun to form, may sound stupid to say but better he collapsed in the ring with immediate attention than at home with no help. And no he should not have come out for the 12th, no of us know what could have happened.
I do remember him being on sky a couple of times after his op with his trainer, saying he was helping out round the gym or something along those lines.

If the sanctioning bodies really cared about fighters and not the $£ fighters could be monitored more closely but it takes money and it could also mean cancelling fights if a fighters weight is not down safely enough AND the difference between them on fight night isn't too great, they won't do that.

Yeah he took a beating in that fight and i still remember a weird bulge on his forehead prior to the 12th round.
Fighters need to be saved from themselves a lot of the time.
At the York hall in bethnal green they have got superb medical staff who (as soon as a fighter is Ko'd) are waiting with the Oxygen and always use it within seconds of someone going down heavily.
They just leap in,push the ref away and whack the mask on.
Good to see

Why the fight continued on for that long is still beyond me....

Ingle was one of my favorite fighters,you often saw him training in scarborogh (his home town).Deserves not to be forgotten.He was a very good fight with a really big heart,when he fought Naz he was introuble very early and got stronger as the fight went on and really pushed naz till he got caught in the 11th.

Supprised and sad to here he has been abandond by people in the fight game and in his own words has "washed his hands of it".


This does not sound like the type of people I know who are involved in boxing.

The Omen. Yeah I remember him. I taught he was an outstanding prospect. Who I think would of been world champion if not for his injuries.
