Very sad , hopefully he makes it out okay . Shows you the heart of some of these guys , he would of had to dig so deep to make it up in those last 5 seconds while his body was physically shutting down . Amazing what pride can do........too much at times .
You hit the nail on the head fighters and their managers have to realize that cutting to much weight to fast is extremely dangerous and this **** "death" is a possibility, if you drain yourself to make weight.. Fighters in the low weight classes should weigh in 4 hours before a match.
Choi announcement expected Former WBC light featherweight champion Yo-Sam Choi, who has been in a coma since winning a bout on December 25th in Seoul, South Korea, has tragically been reported as likely brain dead by AFP. The official pronouncement is expected later today. Wow. Very tragic what happened to him. R.I.P. Choi.
Yo-Sam Choi you have both my respect and my prayers may peace be with you and your family as you live a very honarable and couragous life.
it's a tough time to be a fighter at the lowe weights. they get beat up for chump change. a fighter from indonesia died a while back and it was discovered that he had dengue fever before he fought his last match
