He sadly went into a coma for 221 days, but has since been looked after at Brooks Rehabilitation Hospital in Orange Park, Florida.

His mother now regularly shares updates of hid progress as he works towards recovering as much as he possibly can.

She recently shared a video of Colon on his 31st birthday where she gave him a cupcake with a candle on it.

He also received a signed boxing glove from rapper Daddy Yankee.

There is always outpouring of support and love for Colon whenever Nieves shares new updates on his progress.
