Charles Conwell has vowed to use Patrick Day as motivation to become world champion as his fellow American fights for his life after suffering a traumatic brain injury in their bout on Saturday.Day was knocked out by Conwell in the 10th round of the super welterweight fight in Chicago and remains in an "extremely critical condition" in Northwestern Memorial Hospital following emergency surgery on Sunday.Conwell has written a poignant letter to his fellow American, stating it will be the last time he comments on the situation out of respect for Day's family and friends, himself and the sport of boxing.

#8Damn, RIP. With how much backlash the NFL gets, I'm surprised the UFC is still growing and boxing is still alive and well. No way these sports can last much longer without adding headgear.Comment -

#11You know boxing isn't rigged when people are dying left and right from it. Might be the only sport that isn't WWF at this point. RIPComment -

#20Ya I'm not saying ban the sport but all amateurs wear headgear so why not the pros? Safety measures usually trickle up in sports (OHL juniors wore helmets long before the NHL and then visors too).Comment -

#23Nobody wants to watch pro boxing with headgear. Humans are genetically programmed to enjoy two people knock each other out. If you can't handle the heat, stay out of the kitchen. In boxing world, these fighters dying is just collateral damage.
Having said all that, it was hard to watch Patrick Day fall on the ground with his eyes rolled back, taking a deep breath. Something was majorly wrong...Comment -
