I remember at the time, the injuries suddenly were brought up by the personal doctor of Golota (who took a car ride back from Detroit to Chicago), after there was talk of a lot of Golota's purse being withheld from him.
So there was some su****ion on how true it was.Comment

Andrew Golota remained hospitalised today after suffering a concussion and a neck injury in a fight against Mike Tyson that he quit after the second round.
A few lines from the article:
(Golota) sustained a concussion, a fractured left cheekbone and a herniated disc between the fourth and fifth cervical vertebrae
The 32-year-old fighter was fitted with a cervical collar and will need therapy.
After an MRI, it was thought there was a little bleeding in the brain, and that does appear to be the case, according to Yapor.
"It's not uncommon for people who sustain serious head injuries to have a cervical injury," said Yapor, explaining that all head injuries are considered serious.
Numbness in Golota's left arm led to an MRI that disclosed the herniated disc. An EEG was normal.
Asked if Golota could fight again, Yapor said, "That's a difficult question to answer. My goal is to get him to where he would have no restrictions."
"Everybody just assumed, well here you have a winner and a quitter," Mariola Golota said. "There was more involved."
"There's no question he sustained a concussion from head blows," Yapor said.
Golota was knocked down by a right to the head late in the first round. He also complained of several head butts by Tyson, one of which apparently opened a cut over his left eye.
"If he had sustained another serious blow to the head he could have become paralyzed," Yapor said. "There's no way I would have allowed him to enter the ring for the second round."
Don't know if all the "injuries" were manufactured as a means to save face for Golota but if they were indeed real I don't think anybody could question Golota for quitting. Tyson beat the f**k outta him. He must have saw Don King's face on Golota while he was punching LOL.Comment
