I do remember him being on sky a couple of times after his op with his trainer, saying he was helping out round the gym or something along those lines.

If the sanctioning bodies really cared about fighters and not the $£ fighters could be monitored more closely but it takes money and it could also mean cancelling fights if a fighters weight is not down safely enough AND the difference between them on fight night isn't too great, they won't do that.



















Yeah he took a beating in that fight and i still remember a weird bulge on his forehead prior to the 12th round.
Fighters need to be saved from themselves a lot of the time.
At the York hall in bethnal green they have got superb medical staff who (as soon as a fighter is Ko'd) are waiting with the Oxygen and always use it within seconds of someone going down heavily.
They just leap in,push the ref away and whack the mask on.
Good to see
