After losing a hard fought unanimous decision to Cuban Heavyweight Mike Perez on the undercard of Gennady Golovkin vs Curtis Stevens this Saturday night, Magomed Abdusalamov was taken to the hospital for a broken hand and nose. After his arrival Magomed complained of bad headaches and was not feeling to good,  it was then discovered that he had a small blood clot on the brain. Doctors at Roosevelt Hospital immediately placed him in an induced coma to reduce any chance of complications.

    Magometh, I am a Mexican fan. Hope you come out of this well! I want to take this time to thank all of the fighters out there that risk it all for their fan’s. Sometimes as fans we ask for more without considering the sacrifice that fighters put them selfs through. I just want to give you guys a big THANK YOU!
