Warren issues positive update on Limerick boxer Reeves

Promoter Frank Warren has reported positive updates on the condition of Limerick boxer Lee Reeves, who was hospitalized following his defeat by Gary Cully in Dublin on Saturday. Initially described as having critical but stable circumstances, Reeves' situation has shown signs of improvement, according to Warren's team. The 31-year-old fighter is making progress, according to Warren, who expressed gratitude for the positive developments.

Warren likened Reeves' experience to that of British boxer Raven Chapman, who also faced a severe injury in Denmark last weekend. Both have endured traumatic situations, but Warren emphasized that time plays a crucial role in the recovery process. He reiterated his prayers for Reeves' well-being and the prompt reunification with his family.

Reeves was removed from the ring on a stretcher after the final punch and has remained in the hospital since the fight.
