Really didn't want to wake up to this.
Thoughts are with his family but also Dale Evans who doesn't deserve this either.

Rip Mike!
Feel for his family, but also feel so much sympathy for Dale Evans he must feel terrible 'although this is not his thought at all'. So sad all round

Not gunna lie, I shed a tear last night .
I didnt know him personally, just watched the fight live like many others on the STV website.
Knowing now that I was watching the last moments of a young mans life is upsetting.
RIP Mike

I had the pleasure of working on two of Mike's bouts and he was a fantastic guy. I'm just devastated by this and feel so bad for his family, friends and team.
Re: Mike Towell dies after injuries sustained in Evans fight.
Very sad to hear. Thoughts are with his family and friends. I hope Dale Evans can recover from this too. Have to spare a thought for Victor Loughlin also, he's had a rough year with this and the Blackwell - Eubank fight.

Terrible news, this can be the most brutal of sports. Sometimes posters need to remember this when they are quick to mock and disrespect fighters.

Re: Mike Towell dies after injuries sustained in Evans fight.
Is BBBofC responsible for this tragedy? Are there any investigations?
