Dadashev and Matias were fighting in an IBF junior welterweight title eliminator on July 19, 2019, at the MGM National Harbor in Oxon Hill, Maryland. Both fighters were undefeated heading into the fight.
The fight was stopped in the 11th round due to the brain injuries Dadashev suffered in the ring. He later died on July 23, 2019, from his brain injuries. Dadashev was 28 years old. This is a very sad day in the boxing world today.
It is a constant reminder that the sport we love called Boxing can be beautiful, yet brutal at the same time. This is Dana L. Miller, Founder of Potshot Boxing (PSB) sending condolences to the Dadashev family.
