No fewer than six kungfu fighters participating in the ongoing Garden City Games 2011 in Port Harcourt , Rivers State , have been admitted for intensive treatment at the Braithwaite Memorial Hospital, BMH.

Vanguardsports gathered that 30 of the sportsmen have so far been referred to the BMH from the City Hall, Moscow Road, while it was learnt that the admitted kungfu men where stretched out of the arena after their bouts.

It was observed that the “Bruce Lee” men and women are usually given first aid by the medics at the venue immediately after the flying and kicking bouts before being referred to the specialist hospital.
