Felt unwell after sparring, has had to have another procedure to reduce pressure on his brain apparently

Why was he even allowed to spar?

Stupid that he was sparring, even if it was incredibly light sparring.

Really not sure, I know he's stayed closely involved and maybe thought he'd be fine with headgear and big gloves

Silly really cos headgear rattles the brain more than without headgear in my opinion, a head guard does nothing for the brain, it just stops cuts
