    How does this happen without the kid having some underlying problem or just not being conditioned enough?

    This shouldnt happen if you are a healthy individual properly trained. First fight and not even a big punch.

      Yea to me it seems like he never got super damaged to the point of his injury so I'd bet there is a good chance there is more going on then just a boxing injury, but f#ckedup all the same obviously for him & his family + friends.

            I don't blame boxing. Some people are just more sucespitble to injury, or they have a dormant condition which could have easily occured outside the ring. In any case, it's tragic, feel sorry for his dad witnessing the whole ordeal.

                Everyone that supports boxing is responsible for this. Boxing is glorified bum fights. Peasants do not want to take responsibility for there actions but will be forced to on the next world.

                  If this incident occurred in June 2016, what has prompted boxingscene to report on this, now, over a year late?

                    Peasants? The peasants are responsible?
                    Excuse me for speaking out of turn, your highness, but this happened during YOUR WATCH! YOU are the one at fault. You damn aristoc**** are always trying to turn others into scapegoats for your own shortcomings.

                      Wishing for a speedy recovery.

                      Boxing/combat sports is no joke.
