So sad, this reminds of prichard colon. Especially the way we left the ring.

Washington Post reporting that ambulance changed hospital destination after he lost consciousness in the ambulance.

He is at University of Maryland Prince George’s Hospital Center. Send good energy there.

McGirt revealed that early on in fight, Dadashev spit out all attempts to take water.
Seems like fighter gave signs that it should have been stopped sooner.
I know... hindsight.
Very sad.

"At 2:25 a.m., neurosurgeon Mary IH Cobb told Dadashev's manager Egis Klimas and trainer Donatas Janusevicius that the boxer had suffered a brain bleed on his right side, that his head was shaved and his scalp opened up, and that he was showing signs of severe brain damage. He had been given medication to decrease swelling."

That's from ESPN now: https://www.espn.com/boxing/story/_/...n-surgery-loss

But his neurologist Dr Mary Cobb added: "...that some who sustain subdural hematomas can make a relatively strong recovery.

"I wouldn't give up on him," she said."

IDK dude its really tricky literally the entire point of the sport is to punch the other guy in his brain. Maybe train these refs,trainers, ringside physicians much better in identifying the symptoms of brain trauma.

Yeah I'm not sure what is required for a ref or trainer to get licensed but I'm sure there isn't as much required training in the area of concussion/trauma signs as there could be. They should definitely have more training for them.

It’s easy to look back however with this fight there was no point in which this fight should have been stopped other than the very last round in which it was noticeably clear. Even then Buddy McGirt had to have it stopped. Minus what the bogus scorecards May show it was actually a very close fight. Not until the last round was anyone saying yup it’s time to stop it.

Feeling so torn about this. I was in awe of his courage and effort when the fight was clearly not going his way. Dadashev fought so hard in there, yet it was that mindset of giving it all he had that has him in critical condition right now.

Heartbreaking to know that he was fighting to provide for his family back in Russia and now his life will never be the same after last night.

Hoping his family gets to have him back and that he recovers from this event. We know the man can fight. Keep swinging Dadashev!

Every venue were there is fights should have a small room prepared to treat the fighters.
The time that it takes to get the to a hospital is crucial.
