burgos in coma after boxing defeat

Victor Burgos, the Mexican flyweight boxer, is currently undergoing surgery to remove a blood clot in the brain.

He sustained this injury in his fight on Saturday night against the undefeated Vic Darchinyan of Australia. The bout was an IBF world title fight, which Burgos lost.

Burgos was carried out of the boxing ring on a stretcher and he was taken straight to hospital. Fortunately, the doctors say that he is showing good signs of recovery.

Don King, who is Burgos’ promoter said that, “He is a brave fighter. Now we need God’s help to see him back to health.”

Darchinyan said that he wanted to visit Burgos in hospital, but he had a scheduled fight back to Sydney and so he was unable to do so.

“I told the fans there cannot be a celebration of my victory, I don’t want it. Everybody is praying for Victor Burgos and we wish him good luck,” said Darchinyan.

Burgos’ wife, family and friends are at his bedside at the UCLA Medical Centre.

We wish him the best of luck to get well soon.

  2. If you ask me boxing is absolutely pathetic! It is dangerous, and i don’t see why the poor men should have to put their life in danger and risk a serious health issue to entertain the public!
