    I don't get it, after what happened this past week with 2 young boxers Maxim Dadashev and Hugo Santillán....

    Jesus, after what happened to Blackwell I hope not. At the end of the day if he is medically cleared I’m not sure what can be done.

    Any word on how Blackwell's doing these days?

    I think (and hope) Skoglund's just doing this for fun. I'm glad to see he's bounced back so well

    It looks like he is more or less doing some PT the way he best knows how.

    Blackwell is doing well but he’s had a massive weight gain and no longer looks like his handsome model like former self. It’s a real shame because when he recovered from the Eubank fight he looked and felt far better:

    This is him now after he decided to spar again and went into another coma:

    Should surely serve as a massive lesson for Skoglund.

    From my understanding, Skoglund is doing this for physical rehabilitation. Plus he is still working in the gym with other boxers.
    He himself said he want's to get back to what he was before and then get even better.
    Boxing is a great way to rehab those muscles.
