Former WBC light-heavyweight champion Adonis Stevenson truly is an inspirational man. He’s completely living up to his ‘Superman’ nickname.
Stevenson seems in full possession of his physical and cerebral means, who was plunged into a coma for three weeks following a major brain operation in December 2018.
“It’s fine, it’s fine. There are people who tell me, you still talk, you talk fast again. You remember me?” Stevenson said.
“There are always consequences. When you have a concussion, in the brain, there are always consequences. The important thing is to work so that they disappear and very important to work on my memory.” Stevenson added.
On August 21st of this year, Stevenson revealed that he’s now jogging, a remarkable story in its own right.
“Hello everybody. I starting jogging. Thank you. I saw the fans support me. Thank You. Superman is in the building,” Stevenson said.
The Haitian-Canadian was kind enough to come back to this famous fight of December 1st, 2018, against Oleksandr Gvozdyk.
Facing Gvozdyk at Centre Videotron in Quebec City, Stevenson was stopped in the eleventh round of a fateful contest.
“This preparation, I was not at my 100%. I had these ailments and they caught up to me at the end. I can’t spit on boxing, it saved my life. These are accidents that happen.” Stevenson said.
“The best I can do is preventing it so that these accidents don’t happen. And that’s why the Champion of Hope, I’m here for that.
“This belt means a lot to me. It is being able to help people who have suffered concussions. I have this belt so I can help people who have problems.
“God brought me back to help. Boxing saved me. She saved me from the streets. How could I regret something that made me feel good? It was an accident that happened.” he added.
