Heavyweight prospect Magomed Abdusalmov is in a New York City hospital, in stable condition after being placed into an induced coma following a unanimous decision loss to Mike Perez at the Madison Square Garden Theater on Saturday night. The 32-year-old Russian-born boxer, who lives in Florida, absorbed heavy fire from his Cuban-born foe on the undercard of Saturday's card headlined by the Gennady Golovkin-Curtis Stevens middleweight title bout. The news leaves fight game followers a bit stunned and more than a bit saddened, coming so close on the heels of the death of Mexican boxer Frankie Leal.
