Consultant neurosurgeon John Sutcliffe, who operated on 23-year-old boxer Bradley Stone who died after collapsing after a fight, says there should be an observation period in hospital for boxers after a head injury so any problems can be picked up early. He says it is not up to the medical profession to recommend banning the sport. Male interviewer not identified.
