Stop this blame culture he knew the risk it’s Boxing he fights on reflex and got knocked out simple

Having seen the fight I don't remember it being especially dirty and with so many rabbit punches. I also remember that Lopez hits his head hard when knocked out and that also can be a cause of head injury. In any cause, I wish the boxer will get well and suffer no trouble for his future life, outside the ring (the way it is exposed I think he may not return)

Have never seen Leo fight dirty, he uses a lot of pressure but doesn't lead with the head or hit low. Just rewatched the highlights and didn't see any rabbit punching either. Lopez hit his head hard on the canvas, it bounced up and then down again. His manager shouldn't be making these accusations.

Money.
What a messed up thing to do , pressure a fighters team NOT to take care of the fighters health. The commissioners should be fired.
