At the end of the german transmission from the great card in Hamburg tonight, the commentator said that Arslan was on his way to the hospital.
I hope it's nothing serious and perhaps only treatment of his wounds. I must say that the footagge from the dressingroom showed a completely spent man who could barely sit as the doc checked him.
comparison to louis is funny. anyway if it's not standard practice to take ko victims to the hospital it should be.
Maybe I was to quick on the trigger there. It's likely standard procedure over here as well.
Arslan is not a spring chicken - he's 37, the same age Joe Louis was when he fought Marciano.
Hopefully he'll be okay.

The latest out of Germany is that Arslan indeed was taken to hospital for treatment of his lower lip. It was cut so bad that he could not speak.
Could it be a broken jaw?

Good (not goos as in he cut his lip) at least it wasn't too serious. I think it procedure to take someone to the hospital after they get KO'd anyway or atleast to a get checked up. Getting KO'd is never healthy
Nothing to worry about. His lower lip suffered from a cut, that's why there was so much blood on his face. The ring doctor explained that it looked far more serious than it actually was.
They are always taking you to hospital if you got KO'd, at least in US.
I suppose after such a harsh fight he will likely spend a day or two in Hospital, just in case.
It's not usual over here. As I said Arslan looked completely spent in the dressingroom. I hope they just take him to the hospital as a precaution or treatment of his cuts.
I'll check for updates on the german sites.
