Wouldn’t this be the best time to have a fight?

Obviously not any fight but a fight with a household name like canelo, fury, lomachenko, crawford or joshua. Fights rely mostly on ppv money anyway beyond gate money. It can easily be promoted with social media press conferences over live. And the only people that need tests would be the two fighters, the referee, the cornermen, paramedics and cameramen. So it shouldn’t be too controversial on that front. With this being the only live sporting event going on the ppv would make an enormous amount of money. Plus if the fight goes well it would be lightning rod of enthusiasm for the sport.

That’s what Dana White wanted to do with the UFC only to be shut down by the big boys at Disney
I kind of agree with them on this one
It seemed like a heist of sorts
With the chit that’s going on all over the world , imo , it would seem selfish and arrogant to stage a show which your definitely right , it would be of huge magnitude

Yes I can see them not wanting to do it because they’re owned by Disney. Maybe a cbs/showtime production might work out better.

I doubt it very much

This would be the best time for a fight, but between no gate revenue and, rightfully so, our super cautious approach to this virus, it's not gonna happen.

This is what I've been saying.

MMA/Boxing are the two sports that could easily go back in business.

Just test the fighters & corners, refs, and camera men.

Judges won't even need to be anywhere near the actual fight. They can watch on monitors along with the broadcast team.

I don't think it's selfish.

We need things in our lives to keep our minds off the virus.

Domestic violence & suicide rates are going up all over the world because of this shxt.

We have to have some normalcy back, even if it's something small like boxing, MMA, golf, NASCAR, and the few other sports that don't require 50, 60 people.

I've stopped going on Twitter just because it's such bad news all the fxcking time & it makes it hard to sleep/function, especially with less work, bills, etc. . .piling up on you at once.
