Former UFC heavyweight Tim Hague passed away on Sunday as a result of knockout loss he suffered from a boxing match last week.
Hague, who made his boxing debut in 2011, was 34-years-old.
Hague was taken to an Edmonton hospital in critical condition with a "serious brain injury" after being knocked out by Adam Braidwood at the Shaw Conference Centre in Alberta, Canada on Friday. According to Fox Sports, Hague remained on the canvas for several minutes following the knockout and later went into a coma. He was knocked down several times during the fight, but it wasn't until Hague was reportedly unconscious that the referee called for a finish.
