Fighter Ott Remmer involved in serious accident will not compete in The League 11
Ott Remmer, a fighter involved in a serious car accident while traveling to coach children, confirmed he will not compete in The League 11 due to injuries sustained in the crash.
Last Tuesday, a severe traffic accident occurred near Rakvere, Estonia, involving two cars, one of which was driven by notable fighter Ott Remmer. He was en route to Sõmeru to give training to children when the crash happened. The other vehicle involved was an Opel, and the collision has resulted in serious injuries for Remmer. Reports indicate that he has sustained a compression fracture in his back, which will prevent him from participating in the upcoming fighting event, The League 11, scheduled for March 14.
Kevin Renno, the head organizer of The League, has confirmed that due to Remmer's injuries, they are currently searching for a replacement competitor. In his statement, Remmer expressed his disappointment at missing the event, emphasizing that while he is alive and recovering, he must avoid any physical activity for the time being to focus on his health and recovery. His previous appearance at The League's superfight, where he triumphed over an Italian opponent, has generated significant interest in his upcoming matches.
The implications of this incident stretch beyond just the immediate personal impact on Remmer; it raises concerns about road safety and the potential long-term effects of injuries sustained in such accidents on an athlete's career. Fans and followers of the sport will undoubtedly feel the absence of a fighter like Remmer at The League 11, adding a layer of uncertainty to the event already marked by a significant loss.
