This FÛÇKING Corona Virus is playing us all. This is a FÛÇKING mess.

If it safe and there are not health risk, then I support this plan all in. Like Gilberto Mendoza said, boxers in the lower ranks need help, because is their only income and the help of fighting, increase the ranks and profile, help them further.

They're super fit athletes in the prime of their lives. You really think they'll be getting that sick from a disease with a newly reported 0.06% mortality rate? I'd settle down. This was a manufactured crisis. We were total ****ing idiots panicking like I said this was since the beginning.

I agree, but is a boxer or someone of the team healthy catch a virus, while not knowing, there is a risk to infect another person who is vulnerable for reasons of age and health and then die. I am more preoccupied for the vulnerable ones, especially the elderly.

another con job from Gilbertcito.....hes going to fatten his pockets before giving money out.

I got into an argument with this fool online....told him his org is a joke for having damn near 44 belts in 17 weight classes. He responded i didnt know what i was talking about, so i screen shot a pic/list of "cahmpions" in each weight class, according to espn. ONLY weight class that didnt have more than 1 'ba belt was straweight lol. He never responded.....fcuk that maricon!

I feel sorry for the poor bum who is known among boxing fans but are not a household name or have crossover superstar appeal among the casual fan.

This pandemic is taken its toll and is really hitting them the hardest. If they can't fight/work then how are they are going to eat or feed their families?

No one should be around them in the first place so why should that be a concern?

Because there are people who is infected and still don't know they are carriers and can infect a vulnerable one without knowing. Today in my country died a 29 years old who look healthy. He tried to get tested two times and they negate him the test. He felt weak and lose the smell sense. When he go a third time, he tested positive and they had order him to stay in the house. Various days, he died in his house. Now they are searching the last peoples who was near him for testing. Maybe I am a carrier and I don't know, but I take precautions to stay far of the vulnerable ones of my family for prevention.

Since most people who've had it are unaware they did, as I said, it's just common sense not to near the elderly or immunocompromised if you're sick or not. That's what social distancing was for. If you haven't paid attention to that from the beginning and think you're okay as long as you don't have symptoms, you haven't been paying attention and those people will likely suffer anyway.
Cancelling events for a fear of accidentally spreading it in a time when we should've been taking those measures already not to spread it is not the right measure to take at all.

I know about social distancing, the health guide lines very well and know how to proceed. I believe my explanation answers the questions. What I don't understand is why you are saying something I know in the first place.
