I have been a part of MMA/Boxing in some way or another close to my entire adult life, and it has always been shocking how badly we treat concussions or blows to the head.

I've seen Olympic hopefuls being KNOCKED out and given the okay to compete by doctors. The macho attitude doesn't help. One personal anecdote I've seen, time and time again, that has helped is oxygen post-knockout.

every person I've spoken to who has gotten oxygen after a knockout or a hard match told me that they felt much much better vs the times they haven't. Not sure why or how.
