    Seriously, I think if you are a athlete today, you should get vaccinated, you got to make sure it doesn't hurt your pocket. He just lost 3+ million.
    (Assuming he hadn't been vaccinated) I'm surprised there wasn't some kind of stipulation that both fighters be vaccinated, either by the athletic commission or by clause in the contract.

    It's also possible he had been vaccinated and popped positive for some variant.

        I think he is asymptomatic cause he looked fine this week and yesterday he was talking lively shadow boxing telling people lets get it.

        The majority of covid are asymptomatic or mild symptoms, but im wondering why Teo and Kambosos didnt get vaxxed?
        According to ESPN, he tested positive and was symptomatic. I have no clue what those symptoms were and to what degree, but that's what is being reported.

        I'm assuming Teo wasn't vaccinated, but it's possible he was and contracted a variant. I hadn't heard anything regarding Kambosos being vaccinated or not but I imagine he was since he left Australia at some point and came to the US.

            That's assuming Triller hasn't shut down by then. Remember Tyson and Roy were already complaining about pay.

              Assuming of course, I'm in health care so I understand there's a possibility even with it, but I'm going to assume he's probably not vaccinated, just because the risk is very low if you are.

                This is really bad to be in shape ready to go so close to fight time and got to put it on hold for another 8 wks, George without a handbrake is a prime candidate to be over-trained.

                    That is very unfortunate, first of all Hopefully Teofimo is good and it is just some Asymptomatic stuff that eventually goes away over the next week or so

                    Also think this might be a blessing for Triller because this event was going to perform very poorly so now this gives them more time to really promote it better because clearly this fight wasn't tracking well
                    I am su****ious that is what actually happened here. They have this fight in a ballpark and I'm in Miami and I am not hearing a whole bunch of buzz about the fight. I wonder how ticket sales have been?

                    I am not sure this is an outdoor ballpark fight to begin with.

                    But maybe that's too Machiavellian of a move and I am just being overly su****ious.

                      That Covid reeks havoc on the lungs. I hope he’s ok and will be ok in two months. I didn’t even have it that bad and I got short of breath very easy. He should taken off the next 6 months.
