Just four days later, Chapman – who has been promoted by Warren in the past – was airlifted to hospital following a sparring session in Denmark. Warren said: “Well my team have been in touch with Lee Reeves’s team and he’s making progress and that’s what we’re hearing and thank the Lord for that. “And hopefully with him and with Raven, it’s all about time. Time hopefully is a healer. They’ve both had traumatic experiences. “I’ve been aware of what’s happened with Raven, she was with us two years ago when her last fight with us was a couple of years ago. “But I’ve been in touch with her and her family and they gave us regular reports… “It’s just about time. That’s what it is and we just keep praying that they’ll be okay and can get back home in her case and with Lee, get back to their families as soon as possible.” Most read in Sport The Home of Boxing in 2026 There's a massive year of boxing ahead!
