Irish boxer Lee Reeves was knocked out in the tenth round by Gary Cully during the BUI Celtic super‑lightweight title bout at Dublin's 3Arena on 1 August 2026. The knockout secured Cully the title and left Reeves stretchered from the ring.

In the following days, updates confirmed that Reeves was taken to hospital in a critical but stable condition. Promoters and local officials expressed concern and support, noting Reeves' role as a soldier and suicide‑prevention ambassador.

Further reports on 2 August confirmed that Reeves remained in a critical but stable state after being rushed to hospital. Queensberry Promotions and promoter Frank Warren offered thoughts and prayers, while local councillor Sarah Beasley and the Limerick Treaty Suicide Prevention group highlighted his community work.

Reeves underwent surgery and was placed in a medically induced coma. A GoFundMe campaign launched by his former trainer raised over €87,000 to cover medical and recovery costs. The Limerick community held a vigil at Harvey’s Quay, and Warren later said Reeves was “making progress” and his condition remained stable. The case continues to draw attention to boxer safety and community solidarity.
