Boxingtalk salutes English super middleweight Umar Sadiq who announced his retirement from boxing with a record of 11-2: "I sustained a subdural hematoma (blood between the brain and its outermost covering) in Russia. Medical professionals tell me I’m lucky to be healthy. So I’ve decided to completely lean into my childhood dream, stepping out of the boxing ring and in to the stage of acting." Sadiq participated and won a fight after the fight in Russia. Boxingtalk wishes Sadiq well in his post-boxing endeavors.
