Wayne McCullough was today discharged from the Southern General Hospital in Glasgow following his defeat to Scott Harrison in a WBO featherweight title fight in the city last Saturday night.
McCullough was admitted to hospital suffering from dehydration, with his camp denying rumours he collapsed immediately after the fight.
The Ulsterman miraculously stayed on his feet despite taking almost constant punishment from Harrison before losing unanimously on points.
McCullough said today: "I am grateful for all the interest shown by fans and am thankful to the hospital staff who have assisted in my speedy recovery."
The British Boxing Board of Control (BBBC)refused to give McCullough a license three years ago when a cyst was found on his brain and the Irishman moved to America where he eventually got clearance from several doctors.
The BBBC consequently relented and McCullough was cleared to fight again last September 14 when he beat Johannes Maisa.
McCullough will now spend some time with his wife and daughter before planning his next move.
