If We're Going to have Fights without Attendance, Hold them in Famous Gyms

I like it! They could also try for interesting or historic or famous locations.

Like the Mayweather gym or the Kronk gym in Detroit. Empty arenas or ballrooms would be depressing. This would give it a gritty club fight feel, only with the best in the sport. Would love to hear the reactions of the coaches and few observers. The optic would be great my opinion. Great idea. ......

I like the idea a lot.

Sounds like a really good idea to me...in fact I may steal this idea, make a separate thread, and take the idea for my own. You're an insider, aren't you?

Yup, good call, I think mentioned that in another thread when someone was talking about innovations to how shows are produced - maybe it could bring some different type of venues/settings. We've seen the old school gym setting for fights in the first season of The Contender. It had a couple of small bleachers for maybe 50 select "fans", family, etc.

Gyms do not have the ability or camera setups to properly broadcast a major fight. You can’t just have someone broadcasting from their iPhone
