Boxer Patrick Day in critical condition after knockout loss to Charles Conwell in New York

Patrick Day is fighting for his life after suffering a serious brain injury following his fight against Charles Conwell this past weekend in New York.

Day, 27, lost to Conwell by tenth-round stoppage in their DAZN streamed fight on Saturday’s Oleksanar Usyk vs. Chazz Witherspoon undercard. In the bout, Day was knocked out by a big overhand followed by a left hook from Conwell that left the fighter unconscious before even hitting the canvas.

Never regaining consciousness after being knocked out, The New York Daily News reported the junior middleweight underwent emergency brain surgery after suffering multiple seizures on the way to the hospital.
