Irish boxer Lee Reeves remains in "critical but stable" condition in hospital after being knocked out in the 10th round of his vacant BUI Celtic super-lightweight title bout against Gary Cully at Dublin's 3Arena on Saturday.

The 31-year-old Limerick fighter was stretchered out of the ring following the contest and transferred to hospital for further treatment. A spokesperson from Queensberry Promotions confirmed Reeves' condition on Sunday, stating that "Lee Reeves is still in hospital, in a critical but stable condition" and adding that "we will know more in the coming days, and our thoughts and prayers remain with Lee and his family."

Speaking after the fight, Cully expressed his concern for his opponent, saying that his "prayers and thoughts" were with Reeves. "Hopefully he's okay," Cully said. "He came in there as a big underdog after fighting relatively at a lower level up until now, but he really showed that he can operate at a higher level. Huge credit to him."

Queensberry promoter Frank Warren also shared his support on social media, writing that "everyone at Queensberry is thinking of him and we're in constant contact with his team regarding his condition as we hope for positive news."

The bout formed part of the undercard for the Pierce O'Leary versus Mark Chamberlain contest, which saw the home fighter lose via knockout in the 10th round.
