Wisconsin fighter Dan "The King" Kiser is in critical but stable condition after an MMA bout in Detroit Lakes, Minnesota: http://www.mixedmartialarts.com/news/444222/Wisconsin-fighter-in-critical-but-stable-condition-following-title-fight/

Scary deal. My thoughts and prayers go out to him and his loved ones.

What do you think? One of those freak things that can happen on a choke out? The article stated that surgey was performed to relieve pressure on his brain. Scary, for sure.

This is unfortunate and I wish him and his loved ones the best. I think that this is one of those things that happens sometimes. The athletes know the risks and take every precaution but things happen. Luckily, he seems to be stable and will hopefully wake up soon.

According to articles posted on www.mnmmanews.com, Kiser is recovering: http://www.mnmmanews.com/minnesota-mma-news/1266-update-kiser-continues-to-improve.html

The main question right now is how much rehab he is going to need to do. It appears that the bulk of the damage was done by a few upkicks he received during the bout.
