Simone "Sisi" God, issued a statement via social media saying the fighter was awake. Boxing promoter Yvon Michel said on Thursday that Stevenson was still in a medically induced coma and on life support. God's statement gave no indication of when Stevenson emerged from a coma. Michel posted on Twitter Saturday saying "Great News" adding that he had spoken with God and "things have evolved enormously". After unbeaten 31-year-old Gvozdyk finished him off with a crushing right hand that left Stevenson leaning awkwardly against the ropes, Stevenson was taken by ambulance to a nearby hospital.
