Scott Westgarth dead: British boxer dies after winning fight

[Batman]

It's sad news but when somebody makes a living getting punched in the head as hard as their opponent can punch for 10 rounds or so I am rather surprised that more boxers are not dying than the few we hear about.

It goes to show how tough the human head is.

It's terrible news though, I read that his last words on camera were something like 'I'm just glad I put on a good show for the fans'

Terrible news. It will happen again and boxing is statistically safer than other sports but still shocking when deaths occur.

As a fan you take it for granted the boxers will be safe.

Very sad news.

[Spicoli]

Tragic news. Yet another reason there are no "bums" in a ring. Win or lose punches collect on a guy.

[Fenster]

It makes me cringe when fans moan and complain about premature stoppages (not speaking about real premature ones when the ref has made a mistake, talking about when the corner throw the towel or the beaten fighter has been battered or down several times/has zero chance of winning).

My thoughts go to his family and friends.
