Darren Mcdermott Brain surgery

Hi people,

I just thought that i would let you know that Macca underwent brain surgery on Saturday night and had piece of his skull removed - i wont go into details as i dont think thats fair on him or his family but it goes without saying that he will never box again. As a close friend of Darrens i am happy to say that he is now out of the critical ward and is doing well.

I would like to wish him all the best in what is no doubt the biggest fight of his life but one i know he will win!!!!

All the Best Mac


Over the last 2/3 weeks Macca has been sparring with Franke Gavin and Nathan Cleverlay - The surgeons presume that it has come from a blow to the head but nothing is comformed yet and tests are ongoing.

Im sure it will be out in the press soon.

Im hoping to see Darren in the next day or so, i will post then and let you all know how he his.


This was just posted by a close friend of Darrens on the boxrec forum sad news

 

Good luck Darren.

Thanks for the memories :good

 

Jeez, thats awful but it sounds like he's gonna hopefully be fine which is the main thing.

All the best Darren.

 

I bet Warren still wants him for Smith......but in all seriousness that is absoulutely terrible news, good luck for the future.

 

Good luck in the future to McDermott. Sad news though, was a talented fighter.

 

That's some sad news. All the best to him though, I'm sure he'll be fine in no time. :good

 

Best of luck in whatever he decides to do next.

 

good luck to mcdermott and thoughts with his family

on another note, i think its rather unfair to put gavins and cleverly name in the picture for causing it being so young in their careers

 

Ahh Bless him, lesson to all those who spar without headguards. They are thorough pro's and it still happened- presumably wearing all the right gear too. Best of luck to you Darren thank God it wasn't in a fight.

He always comes across as a real intellectual and i'm sure he'll go on to make something more of himself.

 

This is a bit of a shock, sounds like a very serious injury. Goes without saying but best wishes to Darren and his family.

 

Really sad news, I hope he gets on the mend and quick.. Best of Luck Daz..

 

Hope he makes a full recovery and wish him all the best in his future pursuits.

 

Hope for a quick recovery and wish you all the best.

 

Make a good recovery and all the best.

 

Best wishes to the guy and his family, I hope whatever he does in the future is a sucess
