          It doesn’t matter, fights don’t get made anyway. We only get like 2-3 requested match ups from promoters a year anyway. Now promoters have an extra excuse not to make good fights. “The corona virus”.

            it makes more sense for the promoter to actually cancel the event. If they go forward with no audience, they have to refund the tickets.

            If they just cancel the event alltogether, then they can recoup the expenses via their cancellation insurance.

                  Good article and basically what I was saying yesterday in different words.

                  Throw in some old fights and hunker down when and where possible. Outside of gym and work, I'm at home, period.

                      More people die of the common flu every year about 17000, if the real panic got out it would be scary . This is mostly media hype vs a real contagious but manageable virus that is more damaging then the actual virus itself which is media .
