chose to continue with the bout. Briggs replied to the issue with "I haven't done anything wrong today. I've trained hard, I've come here, I've made weight. Easy as that." Controversy Briggs collapsed 29 seconds into the first round following a left jab by Green – which appeared to have glanced off the top of Briggs' head.
