    This is very sad hopefully he is alright. His corner should have stopped it, especially after he was asking about how swollen his face was because he couldnt close his jaw. He looked like he was having doubts at that point, his irresponsible corner just seemed to gloss over it and bank on the big shot landing.

    Now his life and career at risk.. very unfortunate, and very irresponsible of his corner.

    This is just one of two events over the past two months which make me re-asses how messed up it is to stick Rios in with Pacquiao... It's going to be brutal.

    Yeah I couldnt understand why the commentators were so focused with how good a fight it was when mago looked torn to shreds in there and it was clear his health was at serious risk.

    I knew he was going to suffer some repurcussions the next day. Felt very sorry for him.

    But please can people stop comparing this fight to the stevens fight, stevens never at any stage during the fight suffered any where near as much damage as mago.

    Have you ever tried to train a fighter?

    It's not the same as working a puppet. You can tell a guy and show a guy and work on it and work on it over and over and over ... and some fighters just won't do it. Or they do it in the gym and get in an actual fight and revert to old habits.

    I have no idea what Mago's people tried to teach him, but don't assume that the fighter always does what is taught or asked.

    As for the corner stopping it ... there was a live thread on here during that fight and not ONE person suggested it be stopped during the course of the bout, at least to my recollection. Hindsight is always 20/20.

    I'd imagine that's the least of his worries right now.

    Poor guy, hope he's OK.

    That corner should have stopped it much sooner, but I have to ask why didn't the ring side doctor step in? The doctor's concern has to be the boxer's health irregardless what the corner says. I don't remember the doctor even looking at Mago's jaw.

    Well, yes and no, I was put in an induced coma to aid recovery after serious pneumonia (which nearly killed me) but afterwards it was explained that they tried and failed on a number of occasions to end it and were virtually at the point of having to put me in a long term care ward.

    It's never a procedure without it's own risks, so is only used if the risks from anesthetia are less than the dangers presented by leaving a patient concious.
