Dallas HighSchool Staged Barbaric Cage Fights Between Pupils For Entertainment
 

South Oak Cliff High School in Dallas is being investigated for claims from a former teacher that it forced unruly students into cage fights in a basement locker room from 2003-2005. Head protection and boxing gloves were not worn by the students.

Fired teacher Frank Hammond said: "It was gladiator-style entertainment for the staff. They were taking these boys downstairs to fight. And it was sanctioned by the principal and security." Students were made to settle disputes in "the cage."

Donald Moten, principal at the time, denies the charges. "That's barbaric. You can't do that at a high school. You can't do that anywhere. Ain't nothing to comment on. It never did happen. I never put a stop to anything because it never happened."

South Oak Cliff... that whole community is barbaric.

When I was in high school, our coach would offer us the boxing gloves if we thought we had something to settle.

is that where this highschool is located? in what ways is it barbaric?

where the fuck did you go to high school? Key West?

Yeah that is where the HS is located. Its a horrible crime area, basically one of those places where you don't want to run out of gas or have something happen to your car, because when you return to it, it will be sitting on blocks with all of the windows busted out. Dallas has one of the highest crime rates in the country, and most of it occurs in that area.

Lasted for a long time,there were idiots on both camps

That's cool. I hope they filmed it too, they can make mad cash off those cage fighting vids.
