Becky Zerlentes - the first female boxer to die in fight in US

🤕 the thing that really bothers me is how some of these boxers just kinda... forget about the long-term effects of all those blows to the head. I mean, you'll see them doing interviews months or years after a big fight and they're still like "I'm fine, no issues" but then you look at their faces and it's clear something's off.

it's not just the boxers themselves who need to be aware of the risks, though - we as a society need to step up and support them when they do start showing signs of problems. I mean, Amy Lavelle's story is heartbreaking and it's a reminder that these kinds of injuries can have devastating consequences for people and their loved ones.

it's crazy that some boxers can just keep on fighting while they're already dealing with mental health issues or whatnot... maybe we need to rethink the whole "you're tough, you can handle it" mindset that surrounds sports. 🤦‍♀️
 
I'm still getting chills thinking about Amy Lavelle's story it's just so heartbreaking 🤕... I mean, I know boxing is a tough sport and all, but what's the point if you're just gonna end up like that? It's not just Davey Jr.'s life that was ruined, it's also his wife's mental health - she's still dealing with depression and anxiety from watching him suffer 🤒... I think it's super unfair that these athletes have to go through all this because of a sport they love. And yeah, the whole wealth thing is a bit messed up too... like, is all that money really worth risking your brain for? 🤑 I wish more people were talking about this stuff and pushing for better safety measures in sports... it's just not right 💔
 
I think it's wild that people still don't take sports injuries seriously enough... 🤯 Like, yeah we get it, winning a championship is cool, but at what cost? 💸 I mean Amy Lavelle's story is heartbreaking, and it's crazy how many athletes have to deal with long-term mental health issues because of head trauma. It's not just about the physical damage either, it's like, your brain can't even function properly, and you're stuck dealing with depression and anxiety... 🤕

It's like, if boxers knew what was at stake from the start, maybe they'd think twice before taking those brutal blows to the head. 💪 And yeah, athletes do get that quick burst of cash, but is it worth risking your brain for a few months of fame? 🤑 I don't think so... it's time we take sports safety seriously and make sure our young athletes are aware of the risks they're taking on. 🔒
 
OMG I cant even imagine what Amy Lavelle is going thru 😩💔 her hubby's brain injury is so tragic, i mean we all know that boxing isnt exactly known for being safe, but still it's heartbreaking how the physical toll affects mental health too 💡 i think its time for sports orgs to step up and educate athletes about head injuries before they start competing - its not just about winning or fame, its about their overall well-being 👍
 
I'm so worried about these boxers and football players 🤕. It's crazy how they can get hit in the head all that time and still think it's no big deal 💥. I mean, my old mate got knocked out by a rugby player when we were at school and he just shook it off, but now I know about all these concussions and whatnot 🤯.

It's not just the physical stuff, either – mental health is super important too 💔. My cousin's sister has depression and anxiety from watching her brother play football when she was a kid 😢. It's just not worth it, you know? All that cash they make isn't worth risking their brains for 🤑.

We should totally be teaching these young athletes about the risks before they start playing – it's common sense, innit? 🤓
 
Wow 🤯 this is crazy I mean, you think playing sports is all fun and games but it can literally change your life like Amy's story with her husband Davey Browne Jr... it's just devastating thinking about the brain damage they suffered and how it affected them mentally... the fact that athletes make money quickly but don't really know what they're getting themselves into is wild... we should definitely be making them aware of these risks before they start playing sports... Interesting 😔
