21-Year-Old MMA Fighter Isaiah Abels Suffers a Cardiac Arrest During Fight
Earlier this month, a young fighter suffered a medical emergency during a fight at The Coliseum in downtown Evansville, Indiana.
Amateur MMA fighter Isaiah Abels, 21, was rushed to the hospital after suffering a cardiac arrest shortly after landing a second-round takedown during a fight, Express reported.
Medical personnel rushed in and were able to restart Abels’ heart before he was taken to the hospital.
According to the doctors, Isaiah experienced brain damage due to a lack of oxygen to his brain for several minutes.
Abels’ brother Zach posted an emotional message on Facebook explaining how the incident occurred during the second round after he landed a takedown.
Last night Isaiah Abels engaged in battle. It went two rounds. First round went to him with beautiful striking. The fight transitioned into the second round. Isaiah continued to pick his shots and maintained his pace and distance.
Unexpectedly he was countered with a lead hook. He responded with a takedown and continued to pressure his opponent against the fence to recover from the hook. Isaiah then disengaged from the clinch and went to press forward. As he continued to pressure his opponent something ominous happened.
Isaiah took a step forward and collapsed to his knees. He was going into respiratory arrest. Soon after the fight was stopped. The ref had no idea what really happened thinking it was a typical stoppage. Clearly it wasn’t. Isaiah wasn’t getting up because he was also going into cardiac arrest.
Once the doctors and medics accessed the situation. They got his heart going as they assisted his breathing. We rushed to the hospital. A hour or so later Isaiah was stabilized.

Amen, why feed the moles.
Putting lipstick on a pig. I guess living in a deep blue state you have to find something, anything to justify living in a filthy immoral state.
Gee he must have been uit in the chest at the exac6 millisecond between heartbeats. OR his blood is full of clots for some reason.
Yeah, you always hear of boxers getting knocked out and going into cardiac arrest.
Yaaawn boring namecalling.
Ah. I love hitting the nerve of truth.
Hope it happens for you some day.
