JAKARTA - Boxer Aidosynuly fell into a coma after undergoing surgery due to a brain hemorrhage following his loss to David Morrell.
Yerbossynuly's assistant coach, Emmanuel Savoy, said he wanted his students to give up during the fight.
"I'm holding a towel," Savoy was quoted as saying by Marca, Tuesday.
"(But) Aidos wants to continue and the coach wants him to continue. He judges Aidos and says there's nothing wrong with him.
"He convinced the referee. He looked up and said, 'yes,' he wanted to continue.
"Looking at it from the corner, I think he still wants to fight."
Yerbossynuly (16-1-0, 11 KOs) and Murrell (8-0, 7 KOs) fought for the world title of the super world Boxing Association (WBA) on Saturday night.
As a result, the 24-year-old Cuban left-handed boxer, Murrell, won the duel with a knockout that battered the Kazakh fighter Yerbossynuly very badly.
The defeat was the first in Yerbossynuly's career, and it came after the fight was stopped in the 12th round.
Previously, Yerbossynuly fell twice in the last round before referee Tony Weeks intervened and stopped the game.
The boxer was then taken to hospital consciously before a series of tests were carried out.
More than 70 percent of the punches Yerbossynuly received were on the head, then also suffered injuries to the nose and right cheekbones that were badly swollen.
