Derrick Jefferson fighting for his life

Post by Jaywheel »

Been put in an artificial coma after getting the Corona Virus.

Late starter to boxing after having to stop playing basketball when he was shot in the leg. He had good scalps against Harris and Izon.

Yeah, Hearing more and more about famous (or not so famous) sports stars. Larry Merchant made him famous. Doesn't sound good on his prognosis.

He had a good scalp in Obed Sullivan when Sullivan was a contender.
