    Comments Thread For: Boxing is Back, But Will It Hold Its Own?

    The Sweet Caroline soundtrack might be absent and the crowds might be nowhere to be seen, but make no mistake boxing is returning to the UK market this summer. Both Frank Warren and Eddie Hearn have unveiled their ideas as the sporting schedule creeps out from behind the guard imposed by the British Boxing Board of Control in light of the worldwide pandemic. Warren's fighters will box in the East London studios of his broadcaster BT Sport while Hearn's shows will go on in the grounds of Mascalls, the headquarters of Matchroom and the former Hearn family home.

    I love the boxing atmosphere in UK.

    Very excited that boxing in UK is near. Very curious about the fights of Matchroom in the Mansion that is beautiful outside and inside.

        I got a feeling just a gut feeling that the fights will stack up better then the fights in the USA in "the bubble". I hope I am right. But it could all be the same as is here in the USA. They are still in the hype stage the promo stage but as is mentioned they have competition already in other sport so that may act as a motivator and boxing is bigger in the UK then in the USA overall. Just more devoted fans in numbers and supporters. Not that fight fans in the USA are not solid fans just smart enough to know what they are being feed less then good cards, and told how do you say less then the truth. Will be watching the results. Thanks for the article was it Tris ? he is solid in the UK beat. One of the platforms is going to hit it hard. Still got Showtime and then FOX PBC to take there shot at the fight game. Who knows. ? The fans will know when a good run of fights hit the screen.
