British boxer Jerome Wilson was left in a critical condition following a head injury sustained during a fight in 2014. The Sheffield fighter was knocked down by Serge Ambomo in the second round, and the fight was stopped in the sixth. His partner, Michelle Boyce, 17-year-old son and three-year-old daughter were at the fight. Michelle remembers watching the fight "through one eye" whilst protecting their daughter. "It got to the sixth round and I was thinking just get it over and done with," she told 5 live Sport. "And then the next thing I just remember someone shouting he was down. "[The doctors] said to us: 'If he makes to through the next 24 hours then we're doing well.'" This clip was first broadcast on 5 live Sport on Thursday 8 December 2016.
