According to reports, the pair were riding on motorbikes when they were involved in a crash with a vehicle travelling in the opposite direction.

Terrible news as both would have been looking forward to competing in the major indoor athletics events next month (UK Indoors in Sheffield and the Muller Grand Prix in Birmingham). Hope you guys come back stronger.

Fans will be wishing Kell a speedy recovery and hoping that  this doesn't affect plans for his next fight - currently scheduled for 6th December at the MotorPoint Arena, Sheffield.
