Thurman is right. People will still watch of course, maybe even higher ratings, but the crowd element will take away some excitement. They'll have to really dress up the production, let's see what UFC does.

True..... It will feel like sparring a rival gym or something

Boxing isn’t wwe....the crowd wills the fighters. Great matches always have great fan presence. It’s apart of the overall experience. Of course I’d watch fights that were on network tv...ie ESPN, fox, fox sports, and showtime/ESPN+ because I have the apps....but I wouldn’t be intersted in any ppv attempts until normalcy

BOXING IS BORING WITHOUT ONE TIME THURMAN ALSO....

Rumors continue to swirl of boxing executives exploring the possibility of in-studio shows without fans in attendance, in best efforts to comply with CDC (Center for Disease Control) regulations while being able to resume a somewhat healthy schedule.
