All they had to do was ask for proof though. They just accepted a punishment willingly without a fair trial. That was irresponsible and being clueless in that regard isn’t much of an excuse. These are professionals (not Gigli and Blanc but the Agnelli’s, Elkunts, Montemerda, Zaccone, Franzo Stevens, etc.). That is why the theory holds up for so many. They didn't fight worth shit.
