Over £2,500 has been raised in less than a day to support a boxer who was hospitalised after fighting on Saturday night's big boxing bill at the SSE Arena.
Ludumo Lamati collapsed after his bout with Nick Ball on the undercard of Michael Conlan's world title clash with Luis Alberto Lopez.
The 31-year-old received treatment inside the ring before being stretchered out of the arena and taken to Hospital.

Lamati had been under sedation in hospital, but the most recent update posted on Tuesday said that results from latest scans had been "positive".
A Go Fund Me page has been set up by Hugh O'Halloran of Belfast Boxers, raising over £2,500 since it was launched on Wednesday.
It is hoped the money can help cover travel costs for Lamati's family to travel to Northern Ireland.
Hugh's fundraising page said: "Professional Boxer Ludumo Lamati is from South Africa he fought a 12 round contest on Saturday night at SSE Arena Belfast.
