Big Lex Beats Tesehki by Unanimous Decision to Win Baddies Championship

Q: How did Ray J secure medical clearance to brawl just weeks after a devastating knockout landed him in the hospital?

Ray J appears to have been cleared through the standard pre-fight medical process, but there is no public evidence showing exactly what tests or findings allowed him back into the ring so soon. Reporting tied to his earlier Supa Hot Fire bout said Ray J had undergone a physical and received medical clearance before that fight. After the knockout, he was hospitalized in Las Vegas for several days, with reports saying doctors were evaluating a possible concussion and concerns about a slowed heart rate. He later said he was “getting better,” and subsequent coverage noted he was still committed to future appearances and fights. What is missing is any detailed public explanation from Ray J, his camp, the promoter, or the Georgia regulators about how he satisfied return-to-competition requirements after the hospitalization. No document in the available reporting lays out whether he passed neurological screening, served a suspension period, or obtained specialist signoff following the knockout. The most likely answer is that he was examined again and approved by the relevant medical and regulatory officials for the Atlanta boxing event. But based on the information currently available, the clearance process itself has not been transparently disclosed, which is why his quick return has drawn questions.
