The rising stare reportedly suffered a brain hemorrhage after going up against Jason Facularin in an eight-round match on Saturday, May 6, according to TMZ. The fight occurred on the Filipino weekly boxing show Blow by Blow, which was created by eight-time world champion Manny Pacquiao.
The incident — which took place at the Imus Sports Gymnasium — was caught on camera. Sporting black shorts and a black T-shirt, Egano was helped into a chair by his coaching staff and was given an oxygen mask. Though he won the match, he was rushed to the hospital and placed in an induced coma before the results were announced.
Pacquaio, 44, for his part, offered to cover Egano’s medical expenses, as well as paid for flights for the athlete’s parents to visit him in the hospital, according to the Filipino news outlet The Inquirer. “There is nothing more precious than human life,” the former Filipino senator said of the news at the time.
He added: “Boxing is truly a dangerous sport and the boxers deserve nothing but respect as they put their lives on the line. Other sports you play, but you don’t play boxing.”
According to the Daily Mail, Egano’s opponent posted an emotional message in honor of the late boxer. “I didn’t expect that this will happen when we did our best,” Facularin wrote
