Boxer Patrick Day dies four days after being knocked out during his bout with Charles Conwell
Day, 27, succumbed to a traumatic brain injury he suffered that night, according to a statement from his promoter, Joe DiBella of DiBella Entertainment. "He was surrounded by his family, close friends and members of his boxing team, including his mentor, friend and trainer Joe Higgins," DiBella said in a statement.
DiBella said that Day didn't need to box as he came from a good family, was educated and could have made a living in some other way. "He chose to box, knowing the inherent risks that every fighter faces when he or she walks into a boxing ring," DiBella said."Boxing is what Pat loved to do. It's how he inspired people and it was something that made him feel alive."Conwell was in control of the fight in Wintrust Arena from the beginning, according to ESPN.
