British Boxer Connor Coghill Forced to Retire After Suffering Bleed on Brain

Devastating Blow

British boxer Connor Coghill has been forced to retire from professional boxing after suffering a bleed on the brain. The 28-year-old got the injury during his fight against Hopey Price last month, where he lost his WBA continental belt after a 12th round technical knockout defeat.

Health Scare

Following the fight, Coghill complained of headaches and was admitted to the hospital, where a scan revealed the brain bleed. His trainer, Stefy Bull, released a statement updating fans on his condition, stating that Coghill is stable and resting.

Retirement and Support

Bull has since confirmed that Coghill has been forced to retire from professional boxing. To support Coghill financially during his recovery, Bull has set up a fundraising page. The goal is to raise funds to help Coghill start his own amateur boxing club and obtain his professional licenses to train future champions.

Positive Response

The GoFundMe page has already raised over £5,200 of its £20,000 target, demonstrating the support and belief in Coghill's ability to make a successful career transition.
