[Singapore] - Steven Lim’s Muay Thai opponent dies hours after
bout
Although Pradip seemed in better shape than Lim, he took several
blows to the head during the match. The referee stopped the bout
during the second round after Pradip was knocked down, and ended
the match. Lim was awarded the victory by technical knockout.
“We are deeply saddened to share the news that Mr. Pradip
Subramanian, Exhibition Match-Up fighter and President of the World
Bodybuilding and Physique Sports Federation of Singapore (WBPF) has
passed away at the Singapore General Hospital (SGH) on 23rd
September 2017 at 21:00 hrs.
We are in close contact with the medical staff at the
hospital to ascertain the cause of death and request that during
this difficult time we should come together and extend our support
to Mr. Subramanian’s family, friends and associates and refrain
from any speculation.
An official press conference/statement will be held in due
course.
Mr. Subramanian’s project, the AFC Physique Championships
(APC) which is scheduled for 24th September 2017 will be cancelled
as a mark of respect.”
