In Nevada, there are currently at least 6152 confirmed Covid-19 cases, or maybe I am mistaken about the amount of data, I just hope that everything will remain safe so that the sport or match played is completely safe. I personally do not really want to rush but if that is the choice and maybe to restore the economy etc., I don't think it will be a problem and hopefully this news will be a motivation for every player and many people to rise from this epidemic.

I don't imagine there will be any major fights on any of these cards.

I'm not somebody who watches lower tier fighters (e.g. undercard fighters). I typically only watch the main event and sometimes the 1 or 2 fights before that.

Realistically, I don't know too much about the boxers that fight earlier on most cards, so I wouldn't be inclined to bet on them either way.

That, plus the fights will likely be held in an empty arena—not exactly great for watching, considering the crowd and atmosphere is part of the show.

I'll probs stay away from boxing until the events are back in full force, unless we see some big name fights.

As what the title of this thread we may bet online on boxing if this ambitious plan of Bob Arum pushes through.

Quote
Arum: We'll Do Four-Fight ESPN Cards Two, Three Times A Week Starting In Early June

This may sound ambitious but knowing the connection of Arum in the boxing world, i hope he can pull this one and this is good for us bettors too  Smiley.

Quote
“We have contacted most of our fighters,” Arum told co-hosts Gerry Cooney and Randy Gordon. “We plan to launch the first week in June in a safe, secure way. We’re gonna initially launch in Nevada.

What are your thoughts on this guys?

There are upcoming fight between Kubrat Pulev and Anthony Joshua. Even if they are just under card, they still have something on their sleeves. It makes me excited to watch their fight and their records makes me more excited because Kubrat Pulev or "Cobra" has a record of 29 matches 28 wins 1 lose and 14 knockouts while Anthony Joshua or "AJ" has a record of 24 matches 23 wins 1 lose and 21 knockouts. They are both using an orthodox style so the fight will be fair and not easy to predict who is going to win the fight.

For the undercard boxers, it would sound very fair now that there will be no cheerers and shouting.

But you still can't see how they could make money without gate receipts. 3 fights a week is fair. This will be like UFC. Arum has many friends I'm sure he knew Dana White too which he probably asked regarding how to make this possible.

The UFC made a successful return where they tested everyone who is participating in the event and they will be continuing to put up fights this months and if the boxing promoters can learn from them on how to carry on with the event during a pandemic, then they can really learn from the UFC president and carry on putting up good events for the fans sitting at home.
Maybe a fist promoter will evaluate about it when the pandemic will continue to run like the UFC, but all this must be reconsidered because in the middle of a pandemic there must be a level of vigilance where they fear being infected by the crowd.

But I'm sure boxing fighters will start again in the near future and those of their lovers will certainly be more happy to bet inside the house while watching it.

As expected this will be an empty arena for fans out there, they'll surely provide extreme security measures over this kind of event. Since Nevada state was one of the state that has less cases of the virus, my hunch tells me this will really gonna push through. Bettors? For sure they'll love it.

If this is really true then it is a good news for those who were waiting for a long time to bet. There is still a month left in June and if the situation of coronavirus become more worse then this match can be postponed too. Nothing can be said with surety if these matches will be held as scheduled.

Maybe if this goes through a lot of adjusment will be made such as extreme precaution and testing for fighters and staff that would be present during the fights. This maybe allowed of no audience will be present and the fight will onle be avilable via telecast. This won't be bad at all.

The most important words "safe and secure way" from Arum. .I'm hoping it will happen, I know they can give a safe fight that will not result to any infection and it's still gonna be fun even if we are watching it in live TV.. what I really like is that I can again bet on sports.

great news bisdak.. I'm so positive this will take place.

I think this would happen, he would not be too confident saying that if he cannot make it happen.
With all the necessary measures in place, a boxing event could be possible, if they did it with UFC, it could also be possible with boxing.

I will certainly look forward to this, I've been missing betting since NBA stopped or pause the season.

There's nothing wrong and it's good that sports events are slowly resuming again. But of course, strict regulations would be implemented in this event since we are not sure how long this virus will take. Probably even in June, there's still no vaccine yet. So it's better to not allow fans to watch the boxing game live to prevent creating a crowd.

Before doing the event, I bet they have already made a plan to protect everyone and secure their safety. Just like us, they also need to make a living (although they already have so much money). Personally, I see nothing wrong about making this event, as long as they can implement restrictions. Hoping that they won't allow live fans, they could just make it available online or on TV. I believe it's not only them who wants to play again, even other athletes as well.

I really am not a fan of all this sport resuming with no fans. Fans and the atmosphere they produce is what makes sport. I guess it’s better than nothing though, I’m so bored, I can’t wait to see sport resume.
Fans make the sports, yeah, that's the case, we may experience it but this will just for a while, consider this as the new normal. What I am anticipating to see of sport event was basketball. There are other sports will surely to resume are those sports that has no direct physical contacts like: tennis, golf, etc.

The fighters that he contacted would love to have the match asap. Businesses and livelihoods were postponed and that's why they will surely take the fight as Arum contacts them.

It seems that many sporting events will be on this new normal setup.

Even me Im really like to see again a boxing fight but they need to think what is better to do if they open boxing again this June or not.
But once they open it I think better to not have any audience so the virus will not spread to more people but without audience the sports activitiee or the fightd are boring to watch .

I dont see any merits in doing it they should just wait until a vaccine is officially created rather than popular and high skilled boxers gets infected by the disease. We surely dont want to see that happen because even medical professionals due to human error some of them got transmitted by the disease.

I think that up until June nothing will have changed significantly regarding the pandemic.If boxing happens and we all would welcome such move I am sure it will be in an empty arena without fans as even with fans sitting within 2 meter distance of each other there is still a big risk of a wave of contagions happening.

Yes, there is still a risk of virus however we need to continue with our lives, quaranteene and lockdown can't last forever.
Of course, if some sport events continue that will happen with special safety and hygene measures, maybe even without fans. Still I'm not against boxing or any other sport event to start in June. I think we will need to learn to live with risk, at least until  vaccine or cure will be discovered.

life is already risky after all so we humans are already get used to this risky situation   .

we need to continue living because if not then we will be in great hunger  .  i think that is more worster than being potentialy exposed to corona virus  .   boxing can still be continued too of course but they should only limit the people that can go inside , just like what other sport events are doing recently    . i heard boxers on this event are legends so this one is too important to be cancelled  .

There is still a risk of getting the virus, why is it that people aren't following what the government asked them to.
I can't agree with you more! There is no doubt that Bob Arum can make this event possible in the Boxing scene since he does have a lot of connection. The thing is, I am a bit worried on the aftermath if the event will take place under the pandemic circumstances.

Furthermore, I've shared the article to my father since he is an avid fan of boxing. He says that we're gonna be expecting low level class matches which is understandable since if TOP Rank showcases a real and exciting matches live on TV via Pay-per-view, they will likely going to lose gate revenue. More importantly, there are many things that needs full attention first due to the viral outbreak  Roll Eyes.

If he can make it happen why not, he is a top promoter he can do this thing, he see the other away around he see that he can make money out of it, because he knows there are millions of people in lock down that wants to see sports events and it's a right time to make huge in the pay per view, and the betting public, I hope it materialize.
