    He had a bleed on the brain and is an induced coma now BUT hopefully he's gonna be alright, They have relieved the pressure from the brain so it's looking better for him.. God be with him..

    Thanks for the update, Tony. Sounds very serious and I, like everyone else who has posted in this thread, wish Jason the best of health and a very, very speedy recovery.

    Ive just spoken to Brian earlier and he is gutted at what has happened. It takes the shine of what was a good performance from Brian by all accounts. I missed it as Im working overseas b ut it sounded a good spectacle.

    He said he is going to visit Jason in hospital as soon as he is ok.

    Thoughts with all concerned and Wish him all the best and a spedy recovery.

    Thoughts with both the fighters. Very close to home this one, gutted for Brian too. If I hear anything else i'll pass it on.

    I was at the show in Bolton last night - terrible to hear such news (Thanks for the update Tony - although its a shame the news isn't better than it could be)

    Rushton fought quite well, but the knockdown looked like quite a heavy one. My thoughts are wish him and his family at this time, hope everything is alright.

    We realised there was somehting wrong when the McIntyre-Flourney fight was halted in the third or fourth - obviously the medical team had gone off with Rushton. After a bit of a confusing delay, the MC grabbed the mic and declared it a no contest. The all Scouse affair between Paul Edwards-Michael Robinson was presumably scrapped after this aswell.

    Hope Jason's OK, fingers crossed for some better news in the coming hours/days

    I was in Bolton last night and watched this contest. I hope that Jason is okay, I was only a few seats down from his girlfriend.

    My thoughts are with Jason and his family at this time.

    No mate, nothing as of yet.

    I have searched this morning and they say that the family have asked that no press releases be made at the moment. Apparently they put him into a drug released coma to try and stabilise him and will decide what to do before the weekend is out.

    Thoughts and Prayers go out to the man
