He collapsed in the last 15/20 seconds of the last round. Initially people thought he fainted as it was very hot and he was being tended to by medics.. they tried to revive him and bring him back but could not. Matchroom did not announce it until the family wanted to which they did through the wbc. It is no one’s decision to stop the fight but the commission. There is zero reason for anybody to be having a pop at anyone in these tragic circumstances. Eddies own dad has suffered a heart attack twice and therefore he’s very sympathetic of the circumstances as it literally happened right in front of him.
Nobody is having a pop and the thread is aimed at informing people about the tragic news that unfolded last night together with expressing sympathy for the poor female fighter losing her husband.
Surprised that the event wasn’t cancelled after this. Bit crazy they carried out. To be fair it’s very brave Matchroom promoting in Mexico full stop. Need to keep many people happy I would imagine to go ahead with events.
A guy loses his life and people are most concerned about if Eddie Hearn tweeted about it or not. Absolutely pathetic.
