Very sad. Rip. It's why I will never call any fighter a bum no matter what level they are because at the end of the day they put their lives on the line every time they step through them ropes.Quote:

Mate, the video of the fight is on youtube (I didn't post it, as it may offend) but it's shocking. The stretcher, was basically a bit of canvas with handles that they lay the poor dude on and man handled out of the ring.Quote:

That's shocking, I've seen the video it wasn't nice. He didnt look from the knockdown that he took one big hit to end it, it's really sad what's happened though. RIP
I was watching it live on Monday...couldn't tell whether it was a stretcher or a body bag...=/Quote:

Tragic news. There didnt seem to be any medical assistance at all, just lump him onto a plastic sheet and drag him out of there. Insane.
