A 25-year-old man has admitted his part in a fight outside a Perth pub that led to the death of a New Zealander and erupted after a Danny Green versus Anthony Mundine boxing match had been screened.
Diego Hulton, 37, was in a coma after the assault outside the Brook Bar and Bistro in Ellenbrook in February last year and died four days later.
Hulton was originally from Rotorua. It is believed he was trying to help his brother Jorveth, who was involved in the brawl.
A murder charge against Salvatore Aaron Raimondi was dropped in Stirling Gardens Magistrate's Court on Wednesday but a fresh charge was laid - doing an act that resulted in life, safety or health being endangered - which he pleaded guilty to.
Raimondi will be sentenced in the District Court on May 25.
