A few days ago, the International Boxing Association announced that Jordanian boxer Rasheed Al Swasat, who was injured in the World Youth Boxing Championship on April 16, local time, died unfortunately after being admitted to the hospital for several days.

  According to foreign media, Rashid Al Swasat was only 18 years old. At the end of the third round of the match, he was hit by his opponent and fell onto the ring and fell into a coma.

  After the accident, he received first aid at the scene and was subsequently taken to the hospital.

And after the emergency operation, he was sent to the intensive care unit for treatment.

  But even such timely treatment still failed to save Swasat's young life.

  The person in charge of the medical institution said: “It is not uncommon for neurosurgery to deal with serious cases, but every time such a young person suffers pain, it touches all of us.”

  This shows that Rashid Al Swasat's situation may be very bad at the time.

  In the end, this young life came to an end here.

After the ring fell, he had to bid farewell to this beautiful world forever.

  Why did Rashid Al Swasat get so badly injured?

The International Boxing Association has not disclosed more detailed information.

According to foreign media reports, it is still unclear whether the injury was caused by the match or whether it has already existed.

  The International Boxing Association’s eulogy stated: “We learned with deep sadness that Jordan’s Rashid Al-Swasat’s death. Rashid is in our hearts and in our prayers. We ask him My family, friends and teammates extend my sincere condolences."

  The Jordan Olympic Committee also confirmed this unfortunate news and expressed condolences to the athletes' families.

The organization wrote in a statement on its social media: "The Jordan Olympic Committee expresses its sincere condolences to his family, colleagues and friends."

  For this unfortunate news, many netizens expressed their condolences.

Some people are also concerned that a lively life just disappears. What is the specific cause of death?

  Some people feel that boxing is really a dangerous sport. What is its beauty?

Why not ban it?

  Some netizens explained that boxing exists because it is ornamental and has great commercial value.

  In fact, there are widespread claims that boxing can cause brain damage to fighters.

  Among them, boxing champion Ali is often used as an example.

Ali was plagued by Parkinson's disease in his later years. At the opening ceremony of the 1996 Atlanta Olympics, the scene where he tremblingly lit the Olympic torch was deeply imprinted in the memories of a generation.

  There are some reports that Ali's Parkinson's disease is related to the blows he received in the ring.

  However, Xu Can, China's only current world boxing champion, has different opinions on this statement.

He once responded to this question on his video media platform, and he believes that there is no direct evidence that boxing can cause Parkinson's disease.

  Of course, on the fierce fighting ring, there may indeed be accidents such as brain damage.

Xu Can reminded that during boxing, the back of the head should never be hit. Otherwise, there will be a concussion in the slightest, and it will lead to such a serious consequence of cerebral hemorrhage.

  The 18-year-old young and lively life disappeared in such an accident, and anyone who heard it couldn't help but feel heartache.

  Although it may be difficult for us to come into contact with such intense sports as boxing in our daily lives, the risk of sports injuries still exists at all times.

  When participating in sports, let us remember this saying: There are thousands of roads, and safety first.
