Gritty, hard-punching lightweight Braulio Rodriguez (20-4, 17 KOs) is fighting for his life in his native town of La Romana in the Dominican Republic against the Coronavirus. Rodriguez, a WBC Latino Champion, has crossed gloves with unbeaten quality adversaries like Christopher Diaz and Ryan Garcia but the deadly virus is undoubtedly his most frightening foe. Fightnews.com® wishes him the best in his battle with this unseen enemy.
Praying for a full recovery ✝️
Good luck Braulio!
Ok, “fighting for his life”? Is he having complications? Intensive care? If not, then I think that would be an overstatement.
Prayers…
Rodriguez is dispelling two myths about the virus: that young, healthy people don’t have such harsh reactions when inflicted, and it doesn’t thrive in warm climates. I pray for a full and speedy recovery for him and everybody else. Can’t wait for this to run it’s course and the world to return to it’s normal, chaotic self!
This whole pandemic thing is a work in progress. Information changes daily due to many variables. Personally, I have seen many age groups get sick with this new strand of virus and a few deaths during the days I work in a hospital. Actual final analyses of the characteristics behind COVID-19 may take months to a few years before studies are finalized and made conclusive in evidence-based research. However, research is always changing or they keep building knowledge onto existing conclusions. I do chuckle at all the conspiracy theorists, pseudo-medical experts, and those with theories with no actual evidence-based research. We are all entitled to our opinions so no need to argue. No offense to anyone.
