Mike Brown Hurt

Motocross legend Mike Brown was injured in a crash while practicing earlier this month. The 53-year-old sustained several serious injuries, including a concussion, a broken neck, a mini stroke (TIA), and a swollen artery due to bone trauma. All of these required immediate attention, and Brown underwent cervical spine surgery on June 5, during which a screw was placed in the C1 vertebra, along with metal plates on C5 and C7. He is currently recovering but continues to experience symptoms related to his injuries, including neurological and vascular complications. While long-term recovery will depend on the progress of neurological and physical therapy, doctors remain cautiously optimistic.

Motocross legend Mike Brown was recently injured while training and has a long road to recovery ahead of him.

“I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to my entire Triumph Racing team for their unwavering support from day one,” Brown added. “I’m especially grateful to my manager, Jeremy [Coker], for standing by my side and ensuring that every medical decision was handled swiftly and with care. I owe a huge thank you to Dr. Ifeanyi N. Nzegwu for the successful surgery and outstanding care. I’m truly grateful for his attention, support, and expertise every step of the way. To my family and friends—thank you for your constant love, strength, and encouragement during this difficult time. Your support means everything.”
