The next several hours are critical for featherweight boxer Oscar Gonzalez, who lies in a hospital in Mexico displaying partial brain activity as a result of injuries he suffered during Saturday's 10th-round stoppage loss in to Jesus Galicia in Mexico City, according to ESPN Deportes.

Upon her arrival on Sunday, Gonzalez's wife, Magaly Avalos, was informed by a physician that only "part of" the fighter's brain is working, according to the report. El Nuevo Dia reported Gonzalez to be "in a coma" and "in serious condition."

Avalos will reportedly spend at least until Monday determining how to proceed medically regarding her husband.
