    Omar Henry- "This is for anybody who don't know or is confused on what's going on with me. I called my fight off a couple weeks ago because they found gallstones in my gallbladder and my eyes were yellow. Obviously gallbladder surgery does not take this long. I have been in pain for over a month now in the hospital. They eventually found out that I have a nasty rare cancer inside of me. Tomorrow now is my final operation to remove the cancer out of me. I pray all goes well. I hope everyone take a lesson out of this no matter how healthy you are don't take your health for granted because it can be taken from you in a blink of an eye. Please pray for me tomorrow this will be a huge operation. I pray no complication and God protects me. God bless and love you all!!!!"

    Wow.

    I was hyped about going to his fight just last month down here in S.Fla, and was bummed out when it got cancelled.

    Wish him the best during this trying time.

    My father had this. Its usually terminal by the time they find it as it is the most difficult to diagnose. Good luck to Omar.

    Isn't he only 25? Hope he gets well soon if true. Always wondered if he'd be a player at 154 in the future.

    if I remember biology correctly, the gall bladder makes bile, which cleans your intestines of waste, Not sure if you can go without it.

    But hey, He's done what few have, Sparred with the best fighter of the Generation.

    Hopefully Floyd can help him with the medical bills because this could run into $200K at least.
