To be fair to Thomas Hauser, the issue of how safe UFC's process is/was has direct ties to the question of whether boxing can safely resume.

I thought it was a well-researched article that does a good job of showing there's a bit more to it than the success story that is being spun by White.

Espn+ offers Top Rank Boxing and comes with an immense library of classic fights from boxing’s more golden eras. It has big american sports on it that Americans actually want to see. So why is it close off to half the price of the deadzone which offers snooker, darts, etc etc?

We can't live in fear and stay in our basements. Life must go on. We take our chances in life, just as we always have driving a car, crossing the street, or especially those who risk their lives in the brutal prize fighting business.

If it's dangerous to you or you are in an immunocomprimised group it's best you stay home. It's your choice.

People with COPD, morbidly obese, etc. should take extra precautions. If you are going to keep Walmart open, you should be able to stage fights where at least the participants are tested.....

One of the best article by Thomas Hauser and excellent research.

Thomas Hauser is right, people are underestimating this Corona Virus issue. I am angry with my countrymen who also are disrespecting the health guide lines and to add insult, they are throwing trash in the beaches, also they found two manatee dead, because for one anchor of a boat and a ran over from a boat. Mother Nature is going to punish more to us for disrespecting our Beauty Blue Planet, The Earth.
