Shadasia Green Receives Medical Attention for Brain Hemorrhage Following Loss to Lani Daniels
Following her defeat to Lani Daniels in New York, Shadasia Green underwent treatment for a brain hemorrhage. The bout, which took place at the Madison Square Garden Theater, saw Green compete against Daniels, a former heavyweight titleholder, for the unified IBF and WBO super-middleweight championships. The fight was halted in the ninth round after Daniels landed a series of shots, prompting the referee to stop the contest and Green to be stretchered out of the ring. Green took to social media to share an update on her condition, stating, "I lost consciousness due to a brain bleed. However, I am currently in the ICU and on the path to recovery. I will return to claim what is mine, 100 percent." Green had previously gained recognition as a unified world champion after defeating Britain's Savannah Marshall in an upset last year, making her a potential opponent for US star Claressa Shields, a multi-weight undisputed champion. Green expressed her gratitude, saying, "I want to thank everyone who showed concern and even those who noticed something was wrong during the fight." She also appreciated the support from her promoter, Nakisa Bidarian, and Most Valuable Promotions, who were by her side in the hospital. Most Valuable Promotions released a statement saying, "We are working closely with Shadasia and her family. Together, we would like to thank the New York State Athletic Commission, Madison Square Garden, and the hospital for their guidance and care."
