The show will go in Santo Domingo, even if not this weekend. Efforts to proceed with Saturday's planned closed-doors boxing event in the Dominican Republic capital city were eventually thwarted by the nation's government and Ministro de Deportes (Ministry of Sports). Former two-time 115-pound title challenger Norbelto Jimenez was due to face countryman Eliezer Aquino in a rematch that was to air live on ESPN Deportes from Coliseo Carlos Teo' Cruz, only for a decision made on Thursday from higher above to postpone the card and suspend all activities in D.R. until June 3.

I hope with the backing of ESPN, this card go on in another date sooner in June, 6 Saturday, If they lift the lock to boxing.

Sounds like they were pretty vigilant in their approach and still very optimistic and positive despite the bad news of the delay. Crowd or no crowd, I look forward to live fights at pretty much any level of the sport.

The one ShoBox prior to the pandemic shutting everything down was still enjoyable even without a crowd.
