    I remember reading he had a problem with his back that was keeping him from fighting, had no idea it was cancer.

    Obviously his health is the main concern, based on that article it seems like he's recovering well if they're talking about getting back in the ring and he's been sparring.

    Lance Armstrong beat it and went on to compete after. Hopefully they got this early and he can beat it

    That would explain his lengthy absence from the ring.

    All the best to him.

    Ah man that's gutting, shocking story. Horrible that this happens to someone so young and dedicated to a sport. Just glad that he patched things up with his godmother and she had the wherewithal to try and find him. Could have been an absolute tragedy.

    Also makes you a bit thankful for your own health and appreciate the NHS when I read things like this.

    Get well soon Danny, I really hope you can beat this.
