I just saw this on the news, he has a bleed on the brain after loss to Hopey Price last week, wish him a speedy recovery.

Hope he can recover to have a normal life away from the ring. I’d imagine that’s his boxing career done with. Very tough lad.

[golden_labrador]

yep. hopefully he's in good hands and gets fixed up soon.

i was watching that fight and was hoping the towel would come in at the end there. never an easy call for an unbeaten fighter though. he's tough, that's for sure, and it wasn't fun viewing the last two rounds

Awful news, evidence again what a hard sport it is, in one way it's difficult to understand why someone is willing to get punched in the head for a living, I suppose it's just in us.
Get well soon mate

Wish him all the best. He fought like a warrior vs Hopey Price.

Awful news. Best wishes to him for his recovery and life after boxing.

[Spud]

Its such a cruel world.

I hope the lad wins the greatest battle of his career.

Doesn’t seem too dreadful.
No collapse, was discovered after complaining of headaches and second scan shows improvement and likely home today or tomorrow

That sounds encouraging. Here's to a speedy and full recovery.

I only say this out of concern but I think lessons should be learned from the Nick Blackwell situation. Blackwell was just such a warrior that he couldn't be kept away from the sport despite his injuries.

Not all bleeds are equal but certainly that was a shit show

true, the chap who sparred him post-injury Karkardi should be ashamed too.

From Reddit:

"As you guys may know, Connor Coghill suffered a bleed on his brain after gruelling 12 rounds with Hopey Price on Oct 7. Unfortunately, this means he can't do anything for 6 months and has to retire as a boxer mean his income will deplete.

His manager Stefy Bull has put together a go fund me to assist with his income and it would be great if the Boxing community could contribute/share as every little helps."

it's raised over £5k so far, fair play
