Wanderlei Silva provided an update on his condition after being brutally knocked out during a wild post-fight brawl.
The UFC legend made his boxing debut on Saturday at Spaten Fight Night 2 in São Paulo. What was scheduled to be a simple exhibition bout against former WBA and WBO world champion Acelino ‘Popo’ Freitas descended into utter chaos moments after Silva was disqualified for an intentional headbutt.
During the scuffle, both teams rushed into the ring and began throwing punches, one of which connected cleanly on Silva’s chin, sending him crashing to the canvas.
