The fighting dreams of an 18-year-old Fort McMurray man were drowned in blood Friday after he collapsed in a Winnipeg mixed martial arts (MMA) ring. A severely shattered nose caused internal bleeding in Dean Lewis’s head, said the young scrapper’s Fort McMurray-based coach. The 135-pound fighter was having trouble breathing because of the copious amounts of blood he had breathed into his lungs. Doctors and paramedics had to feed a breathing tube down Lewis’s throat. Lewis passed out immediately after the three-round slobber knocker that left both fighters bathed in each other’s blood. Lewis suffered at least one seizure after the match, said coach Sandy Bowman.
