Anyone else know or recognize the location ? Definitely not a Casino side door.

Is the cameraman about 3 feet tall ?

onviously fake

phil hellmuth has never said "no comment" in his life.

That was the fakest thing I've ever seen, and I'm not usually good at spotting fakes. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

why is it that noone mentioned the cameraman sounds like matusow?

pokernews just interviewed him and he looks fine so it is probably old or fake.

I doubt it's old because he's wearing his logo PH hat.

I vote stunt/fake.

I seriously doubt that is real. first of all, even if you get beaten badly, it takes a while to swell up, so the timing would have had to be perfect. Also, for him to be that badly swollen, he would either need to be attacked by a very competent fighter, or suffer a prolonged attack by a decent fighter. Both situations are unlikely. I call shenanigans.

whether the clip is real or fake i dont know, but it can only take one punch to look like that within minutes. Especially when its a bareknuckle punch. Some people swell/bruise/bleed more than others also, everyone is different.

We should get someone to beat Phil up and film him so we can
make up if it's a fake or not.

I am still amazed that people think the Nascar bit wasn't staged. It should occur to his handlers that the more they do this type of stuff the more people like ESPN will feel duped.

i think car incident was real. the beating incident doesnt seem real. if it was, it would be fairly big news. big enough that we would hear about it from big sources........possibly even big news channels. seriously, the bridge of his nose is pushed over. if it was real, it would be fairly big news. c'mon.......its phil helmuth for christ sake.
