There should be a small portion of money donated out of each major prize fight to go to things like this, we need to form something like a boxers Union that will get these guys the help they need in times like this and after the sport such as Job assistance etc....
Delvin Rodriguez speaks! "I really feel bad about that whole situation," welterweight contender Delvin Rodriquez told Fightnews.com about the tragic aftermath of his brutal bout with Oscar Diaz on Wednesday night. "It was a big step in my career, but I haven't been able to enjoy my victory. I'm praying he'll come out of that OK." Rodriguez (22-2-1, 13 KOs) won the USBA title in the bout, but sadly Diaz suffered a life-threatening head injury. He underwent emergency brain surgery early Thursday morning and remains in critical condition
I just hate when **** like this happens and you have tons of fighters making millions of dollars they should be not forced but given the chance to do something good for the sport, but all too many fighters are too greedy when it comes to money, I think Promoters should have a mandotory % fee to go to such things as a Boxers Union Trust fund.
hold on brother .. fight all you can .. hope god looks out for the family .. feel terrible whenever this **** happens
It DOES. The key is to get more boxer's to join up and unite in solidarity to advocate for their rights: www.boxersunion.org/
Diaz is a hometown hero for us in SA. The kid had Delvin in big trouble with that right hand, unfortunate it ended the way it did. Just hate to see shiit like this happen to any fighter. Get well Oscar.
