R&B singer Ray J remains under medical observation in Las Vegas after a frightening knockout during Adin Ross’ Brand Risk 14 event.
The entertainer suffered the loss against internet comedian Supa Hot Fire on May 23 during a highly publicized amateur MMA matchup at UFC Apex. According to reports, Ray J checked himself into a Las Vegas hospital roughly two hours after the fight ended.
Doctors are reportedly monitoring the 45-year-old for a possible concussion and signs of bradycardia, a condition linked to an abnormally slow heart rate.
The medical scare quickly sparked concern online because of Ray J’s previously disclosed health struggles. Earlier this year, he spoke openly during emotional Instagram Live broadcasts about serious heart complications and years of substance abuse affecting his physical condition.
At the time, Ray J revealed his heart was functioning at approximately 25 percent capacity.
Despite those concerns, the singer agreed to participate in one of the internet’s most talked-about crossover fights through BrandRisk Promotions.
