Really don't know but I actually think he'll probably withdraw now.

Probably Allan Green.

Maybe he should. That's three pretty bad KO's. A shame, hope he's okay.

['Sugar' Freddi]

Damnn it!! I hope he's okay. I hate hearing news like this.

[boxasmash]

He's got Kessler next too right?

[George W Bush]

Wow if JT dies before unhealthy Dan Rafael I give up on life.

[King Koopa]

He shouldn't have been in the tourney to begin with...I hope he recovers

But he should definetly withdraw

Allan Green, Winner of Bute-Andrade 2, or Sakio Bika could all take his place

[MELLY-MEL...]

3 brutal ko's....he needs to retire so he can not suffer anymore damage. class act, and i enjoyed his career, but he needs to hang the gloves up.

Andre Ward........

I'm sorry it has to happen this way for Jermain, but in the long run this will hopefully get him out of this sport. You cannot take multiple KOs like he has and live a normal life.
