DEFENSIVE AWARENESS FOR RINGSIDE PHYSICIANS
(by wbanews.com - May 15, 2012 - 8:54:02 AM)
As ringside physicians, the safety of the athlete is our overwhelming objective. We need to be sure that things go right, but we also must be sure that things do NOT go wrong. The rules, laws and conditions of each country and state may vary. Our professional and basic duty to protect the athlete is universal.
I personally reviewed 19 fatal or catastrophic boxing/martial arts injuries and served as an expert medical witness in three legal proceedings. Important points must be highlighted from these case evaluations. In some of these cases there was no oxygen at ringside. A significant delay in the administration of oxygen represents a serious FAULT.
The failure to properly transport (or failure to arrange for rapid, efficient transport of an injured athlete to an appropriate medical facility) is also a significant matter. Timely medical care is a must. Many times it is useful to make pre-arrangements with ambulance companies or hospitals in the area so they are aware that an athletic event is being planned. Every Second after a serious injury will be anal7yzed and scrutinized.

WBA middleweight champion Gennady Golovkin (23-0, 20 KOs) destroyed Makoto Fuchigami (19-7, 10 KOs) in the third round on Saturday night at the Ice Palace “Terminal” in Brovari, Ukraine. The overmatched Fuchigami was cut by a punch in round one and dropped in round two by a hard Golovkin right hand. Golovkin really unloaded on Fuchigami in round three, putting him down again and it was waved off shortly after. The World Boxing Association has ordered that current “Super Champion” Felix Sturm and Golovkin must fight by September 30, 2012. Golovkin stated after the fight that he wants Sturm next. “If he calls himself a true champion, he must fight me,” said Golovkin.
