Since his fight with Crolla, the doctors have said that he has long term brain damage and if he ever got a punch to the head again he could die. Terrible shame his career is cut so short, but most important thing is that he is fine and healthy
Terrible news. My heartfelt sympathies go out to him and his family. You're right though, the most important thing is that he has hsi health.
Really bad news, Thoughts are with him and family. Coldwell is standing by him as any promoter should and that's credit to Dave. Hope they can raise funds for him and family and let this be further evidence of the warriors these men are and the respect all fans should give them. Kieran has achieved a lot in sport and will be remembered for his efforts.
Good that he has his health and we're not speaking about something worse but that wouldn't be much consolation for him. He can be proud of his career, only one points defeat.
I hope this doesn't upset Anthony to much either. This type of thing can really affect fighters. Know he has massive respect for Kieran.
gutted for him,i knoiw how he feels in a little way. its hard for someone like me knowing i can't even spar to the head,i hate going to gym and watching sparring,so to someone like farrel it must be ****ing heart breaking . all the best to him for the future
All the best for the future m8 I know it's hard pal, just keep urself busy and anytime u want to chat come to my gym anytime 👍
I live in the same small town as him and my OH knows his girlfriend. Such a shame as he seems a good lad with plenty of heart. At least he got to step between the ropes and gave us a great fight with Crolla Chin up Kieran
I just thank it's nothing worse than that in some ways. Obviously a terrible thing but could have been so much worse.
Sad to hear this news, but at least Farrell is okay. He showed a lot of heart in that fight. Hope he has a happy and fulfilling future.
