Knighton's injuries are serious, but not career threatening. He plans to make several visits to doctors to check on his recovery progress and to make sure that his vision is not compromised because of this injury.
Details are still coming out about the fight that caused his injury. Tony Fleming, Knighton's agent, claims that Knighton suffered the injury while attempting to stop the fight, which involved his friend Tommie Weatherspoon. However, a report from an off-duty police officer who was at the nightclub for extra security claims that both Weatherspoon and Knighton threatened to shoot people in the club, a claim that Fleming denies.
