Indonesian boxer dies after surgery

AN Indonesian boxer died in hospital yesterday after undergoing brain surgery following a title fight last week.

Muhammad Afrizal died at the Christian University Hospital in Jakarta, said Anton Sihombing, chairman of the Indonesian Boxing Commission. He said Afrizal, a former featherweight champion, was rushed to the hospital when he vomited one hour after a junior-lightweight bout. The 30-year-old Afrizal was knocked down once during the 12-round bout against countryman Irvan Marbun, who won in a unanimous decision.
