Murray is Stable After Being Hospitalized Following TKO Loss
By Elliot Foster
Gary Murray is said to be stable in hospital following his fight last Friday.
The previously undefeated Scot lost his unblemished ledger after being stopped by Paddy Gallagher of Belfast in a challenge for the Celtic welterweight crown.
The pair clashed on the undercard of Sam Sexton’s vacant British heavyweight title victory against Gary Cornish at the Meadowbank Sports Centre in Edinburgh, Scotland, exclusively live on BoxNation, with Gallagher stopping him in round 10.
Promoters MTK Scotland said in the aftermath that doctors "discovered an injury which required immediate attention" and revealed that the 30-year-old had been rushed to hospital.
But on Monday, they posted a more upbeat message by way of an update.
“We are pleased to let everyone know that he remains stable and in good hands in hospital.
“All signs are very positive and the doctors caring for Gary are happy with his progress.”
Further details regarding the health of Murray are set to be revealed in due course.
IN OTHER NEWS: Andrew Robinson is focused on the future as he goes in search of his 20th professional victory on BCB Promotions’ ‘The World Awaits’ show at Walsall Town Hall, sponsored by Grosvenor Casino Walsall, on Saturday, 14th October.
‘D’Animal’ is still smarting from his two contentious defeats last year and the wounded animal believes he will be at his most dangerous when he steps back into the ring.
The Redditch middleweight narrowly lost out on an English title to Lee Markham last November and as a result his chance at major titles slipped away. For the moment at least. However Robinson is still confident in his ability and is still on the hunt for the big time, starting with smaller prey in the Town Hall.
“I want to go out there and show people I am the best in Britain,” he told bcb-promotions.com. “That is what I believe I am. There is no one that can knock me out and there is no one that can beat me. I believe I have proved what I am about and I know I am number one and I will fight anyone. This fight gives me the chance to show my improvement and show how I am a new fighter. I am going to put out that I am the one to watch and get people talking about me."
