Not sure if this has been posted but Super Bantamweight Frankie Leal is in a coma and in critical condition after being KO'd against Raul Hirales, Saturday night :(
We all love this brutal sport and warriors like this step into the ring and provide us with entertainment and unfortunately severe injuries/trauma like this often gets overlooked. Please keep Frankie and his family in your prayers and hope he's okay and recovers.
Prayers to him and his family. That's awful. This is why I don't understand the mentality of some fighters that go out brawling with no care for a defensive strategy.
Noooo! There should be criminal charges if there was no oxygen or neck braces.
It did seem to take way too long for them to bring the stretcher out. They should of known what was happening ASAP as soon as he stood up and fell back down. his eyes rolled to theback of his head
Can't find an update on his condition just this article in Spanish from 6 hours ago is the latest I've found

there is no neck braces in mexico?
Yeah isn't neck stabilization the most important thing when something like this happens? I'm no expert but the medic was holding his head up and it looked like it kept slouching down
That was pretty hard to watch. His eyes rolling into the back of his head and the dr's trying to keep him awake. Was it that shot that hit him on the back of the head that did it? or accumalation of punishment throughout the fight
I didn't/can't watch the whole fight so I can't say if he took a beating throughout but that uppercut looked like it was sending him to the floor and then he got hit with two punches behind the head as he was going down, that's always an awful thing when you're already hurt and going down. Damn
Oh my god, absolutely horrific. I can't imagine how his family must feel. Please recover :(
This video shows the whole thing South, it's even worse then the one you posted. Damn man :(

he got up but then looks like he just fainted and fell in the corner, damn
This bout he got hit with a rabbit punch in the back of the head after a solid uppercut and he just went down, got up try to regain himself and just collasped back down.
pretty dramatic he had a blanked star and was unresponsive but awake.
Oh my god, absolutely horrific. I can't imagine how his family must feel. Please recover :(
