    Good luck and do your best.

    The fight didn't happen unforntatley ! I didn't sleep before the fight because of some drunk neighbour and I was nervous for the fight because I had won in 3 fights. I felt the pressure and I ended up walking into the ring and I collapsed and had a fit. I've just got out of hospital now. I had 3 brain scans and drugs tests and I was fine. I'm so gutted this has happened

    Take it steady mate. I know you're getting a lot out of this and the results of all your hard work are there to see. But your health comes first, take your time, don't set yourself a crazy schedule and if you get back in the ring make sure you're 100%.

    Tam look after yourself as that does not seem normal or healthy. Be careful and do not get into the ring until you know why it happened.

    As above.

    This is why I dont like these unlicenced, white collar, smoker set ups. No insurance and no fucks given for the fighters welfare. Just sell tickets!

    Wishing you a speedy recovery Tam. Rich is right, nothing is more important than your health. Maybe concentrate on your writing and think about training others. Would your degree not let you become a personal fitness coach? Good money and probably allow you to stay around boxing.

    Glad you're ok bud. No harm in taking a step back and taking a long break. You gotta be there well beyond the time you spend in the ring, for yourself and for the friends and family who care about ya. Cheers.

    I'm all good now guys, I would have been concerned if something came up on the brain scans but they were all clear. I'm going to speak to my coach when I'm back and see what he thinks. It's hard to just give something up that I love doing, I've felt nervous before and got through it but the lack of sleep on top of that was too much. Working stupid night shifts has messed with my body clock so badly, I don't sleep so good anymore. I'm going to look into getting a day time job asap! I probably can't box for a bit after this has happened anyway , I landed badly on my shoulder and it's sore. I will be taking time off to let that heal, I'll be back to training at least when I can because I'll be back at heavyweight in no time if I don't lol

    Do yourself a favour and if you want to continue boxing, do it in the safety of the amateur ranks for a bit. Im not saying what happened is due to any injury but it should make you realise should you not have been able to work because of it there would be no insurance to pay for you. If this were an amateur fight there would be insurance to cover you and you arent just looked at as a piece of meat to sell tickets.

    I should think your coach gains financially from you fighting in these things so maybe not the best person to talk to. Find a local amateur club and go and have a nose at their setup.

    Good luck anyway.

    My coaches are ABA coaches though and I go through the unlicensed out of
    Choice. We are an ABA gym ! I was looked after well in this fight and didn't have to pay anything. It was a professional show at the end of the day. I didn't have to sell tickets for this and they paid for the flights, hotel and I was going to get a purse for the fight too ! I get paid for every away fight I box on. It's just the home ones I don't, but you do make money selling tickets

    You might call it professional because you get paid but it wont be sanctioned by any professional bodies. Its unlicenced and the fighters wont be insured. The only insurance they can get for these shows if they even bother is public liability for the crowd.
