I'm glad to hear he is improving and I pray he is able to find peace and success in life after boxing.

"They took him back to St. Luke's where they did the initial surgery when they brought him in right after the fight. What they did in repairing his skull is that they used a three-dimensional printer to re-create an exact replica of that part of his skull that was removed, and they put that into his head," said Lewkowicz.

The wonders of modern medicine, very interesting.

Good to hear that Mago is gradually going in the right direction, hopefully the recovery continues so that he can still live a good and prosperous life.

The following article was written by Ring Magazine's Lem Satterfield, and was posted on January 31, 2014. It's the latest news I could find on Mago's condition:

After having had a portion of his skull replaced at New York’s St. Luke’s Hospital last week, Magomed “Mago” Abdusalamov is expected to soon return to the Helen Hayes Hospital, in West Haverstraw, N.Y., where he is undergoing rehabilitation, according to Nathan Lewkowicz, his former promoter.

Following a brutal 10-round unanimous decision loss on Nov. 2 to Mike Perez, the 32-year-old former heavyweight contender was placed in a medically induced coma by doctors until Dec. 10.

"They took him back to St. Luke's where they did the initial surgery when they brought him in right after the fight. What they did in repairing his skull is that they used a three-dimensional printer to re-create an exact replica of that part of his skull that was removed, and they put that into his head," said Lewkowicz.

"He's still there at St. Luke's, but they will be sending him back to rehab. He's improving, which is why they prescribed another month of rehab. It's been one month of rehab, and now, he'll do another month hopefully starting in a couple of days."

It's nice to hear Mago's "improving," but I wonder just how much....

Tanks for informing us. Hopefully he will be able to function a bit after rehab

Yeah, I found that pretty fascinating, too. It's wild to think, if humans are still around another hundred years or so, what lies ahead. With the advent of computers, advances in the sciences are increasing at an accelerating rate.

It's nice to know that Mago has a caring family, people that stick by him. He's got a long road ahead. He needs constant support. I hope Mago regains a reasonable level of health.
