The boxing star Charles Conwell, who has given his opponent a traumatic brain injury has allegedly written a heartbreaking letter to the fallen star who was hospitalized after a devastating final round knockout in USBA Super-Welterweight Title fight on Sunday.
Conwell could not celebrate the victory as the opponent Patrick Day collapsed in the ring during the fight.
