BOXER Z ?The Dream? Gorres? post-op neurologic status continues to improve three days after the tragic aftermath of his points victory against Luis Melendez of Colombia.
ALA Promotions patriarch Antonio Aldeguer has been getting regular updates from his son Michael who is with Gorres in Las Vegas.
As 6:30 a.m. yesterday, Gorres made a thumbs up sign on his right hand to trainer Edito Villamor when asked and opened his left eye a bit to him.
About noon, Gorres was able to follow commands.
He opened his eyes on his own a few times and moved his both legs on command.
He also moved his left arm when given a painful stimuli. His neck collar was taken off after he was cleared from neck injuries.
Aldeguer said Gorres? improvement was miraculous, and asked Filipinos to continue praying for the brave Cebuano fighter.
Gorres suffered a knockdown late in the final round in a fight that he was clearly winning. He won through unanimous decision but collapsed after the verdict was announced.
He was rushed to the hospital for an emergency surgery to relieve pressure brought about by a blood clot on the left side of his brain.
Gorres' mother Zeta cried upon learning the latest development of her son.
Zeta said the family had been attending more than one Mass daily for her son.
Gorres may not be able to fight again but according to his wife, Datches, what matters most is for him to come home and be with them during Christmas.
