Ian Jacobs

[Eric t]

It was probably either

Briggs
Green
Oganov
bika

Maybe briggs!!!!

He is retired but who knows he might have had a sparr

I read that thomas adamek had a few broken bones in his face after his fight with briggs, brutal sport.
Floyd mayweather has the right idea, get hit as little as possible and make as much money as possible

Note on the schedule that Ian Jacobs is to fight William Hadlow in Logan Queensland in an eight rounder on September 19.

Jacobs seems to be a newcomer to boxing. Is anybody familiar with him? Was he a "kick boxer"?

The show had been Postponed/Cancelled

Ian Jacobs sustained fractured eye socket cheekbone and nose during sparring

Who was he sparring!!!!on east forum Alex Leapai & Ian jacobs are sparring partners both train together in the Brisbane City and just reading The Herald in the same gym Leapai & Haumono sparred last night.

Whoever it was he must have had some serious power, ian is a very tough guy, he went the distance with Gurkan Ozkan, he took some pretty good shots, mundine used ozkan as a sparring partner in preparation for his fight with antwun echols, he said that he is a lion

[Eric t]

Thanks for the info

He shouldn't be sparring big punching heavyweights who have no self control, if that is the case.

You don't throw bombs at a guy who you outweigh by 30 kilos

Was he wearing head-gear? If not.....WHY NOT??

[Captnhook]

Obviously too old and frail, should stay in retirement. Too old to try his hand in boxing and wouldn't go anywhere. Glory days (debatable as only a kickboxer) are over old man.

[Streets]

Ok, so I see that this topic has been left to die but has anyone got a new date for this sic match-up???

[buster007]

darchinyan was running out of sparring partners in oz, so it sounds like he has hurt another partner.

Where has this bloke gone, i know he came back with a different name, but once my sterling detective work came into play he disappeared again?

[colin russell]

He was sparing an 81 kg amature from Logan and yes he was wearing head gear.

[colin russell]

What the Adamheight you took 12 months to ask that question, and I think you know who it was anyway.

[dberry]

Well, please enlighten us, who was it?

[Hounddawg]

A guy i know trains at his Gym, says he doesn't allow head gear and no time is kept while sparring.

Sensible man, and I say this without a hint of irony as I too refuse to wear headgear for sparring and advise against it.

[Marlin]

Why's that daz? To make sure you're truly battle tested?

[dberry]

A paper was released calling for head gear to be banned in competition in the early nineties, and the AMA quickly buried it. I managed to obtain one of these through a friend studying human movement. The paper was from a study on the effectiveness of head gear and basically suggests boxers should not regularly use head gear as it increases the risk of brain damage and 'bleeds'. It was found that the padding offered no extra real protection from trauma, the the head as target is made larger, peripheral vision is reduced allowing more punches to sneak in and what would have been glancing blows with the glove sliding off a slippery head actually would grip (leather on leather) causing traumatic torsional rotation.

The paper also pointed out that in competition, cuts and one punch knock outs where less likely, meaning fights that would naturally be stopped due superficial damage or one concussive blow would keep going causing fighters to sustain continuous damaging blows.

[Marlin]

Wow, that is interesting. Perception is a funny thing...

Dberry's comment:

has been raised for decades by medical authorities, officials attempting to lessen the damage and the same conclusion was reached that padding does not really protect the brain and infact that deaths had been recorded where head gear had been worn.

I remember reading a book by Ray Mitchell written in the 1960s about death and safety in the ring and a whole chapter was devoted to safety improvements where the impact in reducing damage by wearing head gear was discussed and the conclusion was drawn that head gear and variations of head gear provided little value in protecting the brain.
