A professional Aussie boxer was in a critical condition after being knocked unconscious by a \u201cwhistling big right hand\u201d during a bout in south west Sydney.<\/p>\n
Davey Browne Jr<\/strong>, a father-of-two, sustained significant head injuries in the 12th and final round of the match at Ingleburn RSL.<\/p>\n The Campbelltown man was fighting Filipino<\/strong> Carlo Magali<\/strong> for the IBF Pan Pacific Junior-Lightweight title, which would have seen Browne attain a world ranking.<\/p>\n Browne Jr\u2019s legs were shaking in the 6th and 11th rounds after copping a number of heavy hits.<\/p>\n John McDougall, the president of the Australian National Boxing Federation, said this is the first serious injury in NSW in 30 years.<\/p>\n He said Browne, who was ahead on points before he went down, told referee Charlie Lucas he was okay to fight on into the last round.<\/p>\n Mr McDougall also defended the decision for the fight to continue.<\/p>\n \u201cPeople will say in hindsight the corner shouldn\u2019t have let him come out,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n \u201cBrowne turned and looked at a bit of loose tape of his glove, took his eyes off his opponent, and unfortunately this whistling big right hand hit him flush, he fell down.<\/p>\n \u201cHe was out cold before he hit the floor. The crowd of 500 were quite distressed.\u201d He died shortly in hospital.
