Rugby league personality Paul Kent is being treated in hospital for a suspected collapsed lung and as many as five broken ribs after a street fight in Sydney’s inner west on Saturday night.
Kent, the Fox Sports NRL 360 co-host and Daily Telegraph columnist, has been stood down by his employer News Corp while it reviews his involvement in the melee.
A 35-year-old man has been charged with affray over the incident with Kent, vision of which was captured on a phone camera and posted on social media.
The man was subsequently left with a head injury after a bystander intervened**.**
On Tuesday, it emerged that Kent had also been badly hurt and admitted to hospital after the altercation.
Kent’s lawyer, George Elias, told this masthead that he was undergoing tests in hospital to determine whether he had sustained a collapsed lung after he was flung into a roadside tree by the man he squared up against.
Kent also has between four and five broken ribs, he said.
“He’s been in hospital since after the incident,” Elias said. “I’m just concerned about his health and wellbeing
Kent got what he deserved. He was the aggressor, had plenty of time to back off. From the video evidence and no doubt from witnesses who will testify against him, Kent will lose any reputation he has and hopefully be charged and found guilty.Kent in hospital and the guy who threw him at the tree is lawyered up. Real get your popcorn out story.

Probably woke up hungover then realised how much pain he was in when the hangover started wearing off, to the hospital he goesComfusing part of those 2 stories is the list of people that visited him at his house on Monday… but then his lawyer says he has been in hospital since the night with broken ribs and a punctured lung.
From the above story the guy who threw him into the tree has been charged with affray. And Kent has no charges?????
