    Glaser says Stevenson's condition has gotten worse

    People slam these fighters for "FIGHTING SAFE" when they themselves avoid fights... every fight and every sparring session can end these guys lives and all they get is "GET WELL SOON" on a boxing forum from the very same fans who slam them when they consider their own lives!!!... you can be on top of the world one day and fighting for your life the next in this sport!!!

    Is this legit or standard Glaser? Isn't he a known fibber &/or embellisher?

    But everyone knows boxing is dangerous. Its part of the sport. And its highly f#cked up when a severe injury or death happens, but gtfo with this "easy fight" theory on boxing. The sport of boxing is already weaker than it should be cuz mfers don't fight each other enough. Fair play to those who don't wanna risk severe injury or death, but I'm tired of this bs fight logic some fans have nowaways that sounds like some stockholm syndrome type sh^t.

    And if this news is true it might be for the best for Adonis. I've always said I'd rather die than live at the mercy of my loved ones & in a diminished state. If this injury is going to leave Adonis living like a shadow of who he was I'd bet if he could make the call he'd have preferred to have just died then to live like he may have to live from here out.

      This topic is barely being covered because boxing fears a negative backlash. a top tier boxer just became a vegetable and there hasn't been in depth coverage. with all these TV deals and exposure the sport is getting this will reignite calls to ban the sport. this tragedy is being swept under the rug.

          He still has a fighting chance to recover. Even if he was on life support which I don't believe he is.

            People slam Adonis for being a trash human being - and he was/is

            "Fans" slam fighters because those guys are making millions of dollars for fighting 2-3 fights per year...so its technically only (up to) 108 minutes (36x3) of work in 365 days. That does not include training or sparring at all, but fighters aren't paid for that unless they have sponsorships.

            Boxing just attracts morons and immature inbreds like DramaShow Spoon23 and Boksfan (as well as DOZENS others) that just sit around and hate on others for literally no reason

              It doesn't take a medical degree to surmise that it's not looking good. A severe traumatic brain injury plus over a week in a coma doesn't typically result in the individual waking up like nothing happened.

                    Then they shouldn't fight if they feel like that. I never had a amateur fight despite spending years training cuz I was concerned with the risk of brain injuries. I made that choice, why can't others make a similar choice?

                    Plenty of things are dangerous. And we have the freedom to do those things or not do those things. These cats who box KNOW boxing is dangerous & have accepted that reality.
