His gait looked horrible towards the end of the fight, one of the indicators of brain damage

The dark side of the sport we love!
I hope he recovers!

The sign i first notice around the 9th was the constant blinking yet no one said ****.

Prayers & well wishes for a recovery yet when do if please teach instead of ever competing again. We all know the risk though minute we know the risk is still there

The corner should have stopped it. They know him better than anyone. But no, they were pushing him to continue. I also believe that when he went down the first time in the twelfth round, the referee should have stopped it. I know he got up and put his hand up like he was really to continue, but he was taking so much punishment, the referee should of just stopped it. Protect the fighters from themselves. That’s part of the job.

Honestly bro I'm really surprised that guys like Bernstein and Farhood who I believe are some of the OGs of the game and very experienced made no mention of it.

That's greed. The trainer feels they can get rich if their fighter can still put it out. They're trying to keep him in the fight to get a chance to get rich. Money kills all.

Horrible.
It was all totally messed up there was no urgency to give him assistance or anything. Tragedies and all that happen but for me this could have been easily prevented and that is what really sickened me watching this.

Everything about it stank. Morrell who I am a big fan of and followed since an amateur was also wrong here taunting and celebrating like a prat even if he did half heartedly help him back to the corner it was clear as day his opponent was very badly hurt. Classless. I'm sorry but you don't celebrate when your opponent is in that shape. A ****show from top to bottom.

My thoughts go out to him and his family

EL PAC-MAN nailed it. Exactly what was going on in my mind
