This was on the undercard to the Hopkins-Wright fight.

Excellent fight btw, probably a fight of the year contender....

Hope he's alright, he seemed like he was going to be another great Filipino fighter....

Sadly, however, Amonsot is currently in the hospital with a brain bleed. The 21-year old was sent immediately after the fight, as ringside physician Jeff Davidson was concerned about the head shots that he took during the bout. It turned out that Amonsot suffered a small subdural hematoma, which will more likely than not end his career, though thankfully it is not life-threatening. These things happen in boxing, yet it's never something that I become desensitized to. It puts into perspective just how tough these fighters are, and how risky a career choice they've made. God bless them for making it and entertaining us all, and Bad Left Hook sends our best wishes to Czar Amonsot and his loved ones.
