Prichard Colón Meléndez (born September 19, 1992 – August 13, 2026) was a Puerto Rican former professional boxer, honorary WBC World Champion, and gold medal winner at the 2010 Pan American Youth Championship in the 64 kg (141 pounds) category.[1] After a 2015 match with Terrel Williams, in which he was repeatedly struck in the back of his head, Colón collapsed in the dressing room and remained in a coma for 221 days due to a brain hemorrhage. He was then in a persistent vegetative state and unable to speak but was eventually released from the hospital, receiving physiotherapy and using a computer for speech until his death.
