He left the arena on a stretcher

Lucas Browne was brutally knocked out in the sixth round of Saturday night's clash with Dillian Whyte and carried off on a stretcher by paramedics after his face was left streaming with blood from a barrage of heavy blows.  Panic ensued when Browne lay unresponsive on the ground after the fight had finished. It has since been reported that the 38-year-old is ok, having not sustained any serious damage beyond cuts and bruises. The former WBA World champion has boarded a plane to Sydney and is "feeling good", according to Ben Damon. https://twitter.com/ben_damon/status/977825261055102976 Browne also posted a message from his own Twitter feed, thanks his supporters for their love and support, reassuring them that he is "all good", and "will be back." https://twitter.com/lucasBrowne/status/977789978389266432 As for Whyte, he identified WBC heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder as a potential opponent this summer. "Hopefully Lucas Browne's OK. He showed up and he tried but I knew this was going to happen," Whyte said in his post-fight interview. "Hopefully he's well but, listen, Deontay Wilder where you at?"
