Boxing legend Roberto Duran, aged 72, underwent a successful pacemaker implant surgery after being hospitalized over the weekend due to health issues related to an atrioventricular blockage. His family shared the positive news on Duran's Instagram account, expressing gratitude for the successful procedure.
According to Duran's son, Robin Duran, the decision for the pacemaker was made as his father's heartbeats were slightly irregular due to an artery obstruction. Despite concerns about a potential heart attack or mortality risk, Robin Duran reassured that his father was stable upon arrival at the hospital in Panama City, where medical examinations revealed the blockage.
