No Doubt many of you will be familiar with the effect of injecting saline solution under the skin - among other substances it is a rather safe way to induce bolbous swelling.

Bob didn't continue becasue his leg was smashed and his ribs were shagged. So many true fighters have continued with Broken hands in any case - they just keep the wraps on and ice the hell out of it, the fact that the wraps came off says something. How many fighters on this forum have continue with broken hands, fractured ribs among other things. In NZ David Tua fought Lennox Lewis with torn rib cartildge, Pea Wolfgramm fought in the Olympic Finals with a broken right hand, Jeff Fenech used to fight constanly with broken hands .... etc etc etc

And I'm sure everyone on this forum could think of ten examples in thier own country of fighters fighting on through serious injury and pain because they have the will and spirit to win.

I'd love to see Peter in becasue at least he has earned his way, may not be a raging favorite but the guy works bloody hard and has won the fights he needed to fight to win. He will give (if he gets the chance) Semi a hell of a time first up.

I agree with Felix - Abidi should be the one who gets the shaft, he sat on his butt to get in the final. I probably would have done the same thing given the opportunity but in terms of who earned their way there Graham has, Abidi hasn't unfortunately he is just not as bankable as Ernesto or Abidi.
