listening to a BBC podcast with Malignaggi and Bunce, Paulie said he was close to being put into a coma? A doctor told him this, I'd very much like to see if there's an article out there that states this or if it's Paulie exaggerating as of course he brings up the Porter drug testing thing for a good 5 minutes and how Brook has to be careful.

Wladimir Klitschko
Mired in Lawsuit
Over Injured Boxer

8/15/2014 8:17 AM PDT BY TMZ STAFF
EXCLUSIVE
0815-waldimir-magomed-tmz-getty-2.jpg

Heavyweight boxing champ Wladimir Klitschko is in the middle of a bizarre legal fight ... involving a boxer he signed who suffered massive injuries during a recent bout.

Magomed Abdusalamov -- a boxer who was signed by Klitschko's company, K2 Boxing Promotions -- suffered permanent brain damage in a November, 2013 bout at Madison Square Garden.

The fight went the full 10 rounds and there was no question ... Mike Perez won. In fact, he beat Abdusalamov so badly, he ended up having brain surgery and suffered a series of strokes. He may never walk or talk again.

Abdusalamov's wife has sued Klitschko's company ... claiming the champ and his people should have stopped the fight when it was clear her husband was badly injured. She also claims there was a delay in getting him medical attention.

Klitschko's company has put a claim in to his insurance company ... to cover any judgment in the lawsuit, but the insurance company has now asked a judge to declare the policy ONLY covers injuries like sickness, disease or death outside the ring that would cause cancellation of the fight.

The insurance company says there's a specific exclusion from injuries resulting from the fight itself.

A judge has yet to rule.

:what:

nikka was a pimp.

Expect ruthless pimps to be gentlemen brehs. :mjlol:

but on some real shyt...Stevenson needs to make a big fight happen already. He brought so much momentum from last year and now he's taken a back seat to other fighters even though he's the champ of the division. Dude is barely relevant now.

Nah he doesn't make as much as Ward, although I know your just clowning. When I saw that Ward made 1.9 million against Rodriguez, I just know there are always gonna be issues when it comes to facing better competition regarding money. It's basically "if I made this much fighting Rodriguez, why would I fight _______ for this much."

One could argue he currently makes more than Ward, since you can't make money if you aren't fighting.
