I don't understand why they are really forcing something like this, I get that the matches are usually bringing in millions of dollars and stopping that would ruin many peoples careers and financial situation however is it really worth it because the other side is health, we are talking about health of some people as well.

I can understand if they go fully young people who are under 40 years old as well but even that is not going to stop it. Island or no island there should not be a fight, UFC is out of their minds if they are actually doing this and I would be categorically against it.
It is all about the money I think, there should be fight in UFC anymore because of the threat of the covid-19. Even though they know how deadly it is, they still want to continue it because of the millions of dollar bets in the fight. I am a online bettor but I'm against with the UFC decisions. Even though they will fight in isolated island, it is still not right after all.
Yes they cant stop because of money. Well its their decision to continue despite of the situation we are in now, I think what matter for them is money not their health. We cant do anything about it since they already made a decision, its just that its not acceptable to risk your health for money regardless of the reason.

@Asuspawer09, it seems like nothing can stop UFC here, even the virus.. well, what about the fans, there will be no fans for this one? and we are just going to watch the PPV at home?

What are your thoughts? Is this safe  Grin Try social distancing in an Island  Grin

very safe if there's no fans watching this,.. and they might as well build some quarantine place in the Island, just in case someone will be infected.

I guess if one people have coronavirus is on the island it's about 80% that is on the Island is going to be infected too, Somehow social distancing could could depending on the size of the Island.

But I really doubt it even the fighters could spread coronavirus to the opponent so there is always a risk, I guess making this decision they are already expecting it so I guess they are already prepared for it.

In an island there are few people in there, they need to make sure there is no infected with covid-19 in an Island before they bring the fighters and other people so it's gonna be safe, now, if the test kit is accurate, there's no way people will be infected as they got tested before going into the Island.

Like you said, I don't think that this will happen too because the health of the fighters is more important than the money. Fighters will not risk their lives because they might be infected too with the virus. I'm not expecting this too happen and maybe he is just bluffing Cheesy.

They won't be infected because they will be taken in an island, all of them will be check, and therefore they can assure that no positive with covid-19 will be taken. the only way these people can gain an audience is through live streaming and this would be possible if maybe will subscribe in a PPPV which I think people would do be more interested now as they are just staying at home.

Somehow, I remember about Mortal Combat movie that has a competition on an island. The audience is watching the match on their home, while some of the people betting for who will win. I think that will be like that so people could still have entertainment, and they can place their bet to their favourite players. I guess that feels the same if we bet on the gambling website like usual, and perhaps, that can attract more people to watch the match in these situations. If many people like that show, they will watch and bet for that.

Mortal Kombat was a movie in the gore category as far as I remember with fatalities in the end of the fight.People betting from home to a death fight can only be entertaining only in a movie.If this ever happens in the real world it means humanity has lost its values so I hope this never happen.

To bet on soccer is good even if it happens in an isolated island but anything that surpasses the borders of normal betting to anything extreme like dog fights should be stopped at all cost.

Organizers of events like that is also doing their safety precaution especially on what is happening in our world right now. There are sports that can possibly resume even there is an outbreak like this, For example, esports tournaments, Esports tournaments are still happening now and It is quite ok conducting the tournament online. Though there aren't a major events.

I don't know why still UFC is not postponing one of their events fight, Maybe having both of the players fight without any crowd is their plan and safely check all of the people in the said event one by one. It's a great risk and it is the decision of the fighters if they will outstand the fight on this kind of situation, understanding that they will accept the risk on what they want to do.

This a step too far even if it was either true or considered feasible. The idea that a corporation would go to these extreme lengths just for the sake of real (or acting/theatrical) sporting events during these very testing and very troubled times is just patently absurd.

I am sure I speak for many when I say we really need some form of normality and entertainment after being under so many days of lock down but this is all too much to expect or even want.


How about this?

It can affect the fighters because of the climate of the island itself Cheesy but if this will really happen then they will need to work hard for this to happen since most of the countries are in a lockdown. Where should the fight happen Cheesy.

Now that almost all sporting events all over the world are cancelled, those wanting bet of sports events are left with having to find alternatives. What are the majority doing?

Are some giving up and trying to become reformed gamblers?

Are some gambling on casinos instead?

What are alternatives most sports betting users are now switching to?

They have several medicines are on test right now and hopefully one of those we get a positive result so that all of the affected person will be healed for the said disease and the economy will back on track, but expect this will take long since professionals need more time to get a perfect solution and will not create disaster if the medicine malfunctions

so for now maybe we should take a rest on our favorite sports since there are still few running right now and if you are me familiar with them then bet with them for fun only 😄
It is also my wish now that the drug and vaccine for this virus will be discovered to end the hardship and fear it has caused.

Let's not think too much about sports betting because we can't do anything about it. Let's just cool down until this problem is over.

If you like, first try the online gambling casino sites here on the forum so that you may be lucky, there are also new ones being advertised.

Some sports may come sooner than others. The ones with larger TV viewers and advertising revenue would probably start operating in empty fields while the ones that are depended on real viewers would need to wait at least till the end of the year.
The current situation would surely bring an economic depression, as in depression, the gambling could get a boost for just after they open but would be affected for year to come as people would have less money to spend on gambling.
The only indication here is for how long will the virus last, or if some organization could finally found the antidote or cure for the virus. The longer the outbreak it takes will severely affect the economic status around the globe, wether we learn to adopt until it is over or a catasthropy will befall us. If this takes longer than we expected, people will lose money for their needs, and might take longer to get back on the gambling track.

I wonder will there be a rush when it comes back on? I mean people haven't been gambling on sports for so long now, probably never gave any break this long considering even during summers there are games going on either EURO or World cup or Olympics or something eventually happens so people do not stop for this long usually, if nothing else people can bet on friendlies at the very worst.

Considering this pandemic will continue for at least another month, we are talking about games not happening until may, probably June, hell maybe some of them will not happen at all? So, when eventually games come back and people start playing sports again, will there be like a HUGE rush that will result with x10 or maybe more wagering going on during the first weeks?

We can wish that the next event in each sport will not be a rush. That will not good for the match because if they make it a rush, the game will not be exciting to watch. I hope that the World Cup or Olympics or the other big sports event can cancel the game until the situations can back healthy so people can watch directly without fear of the distance. They can reschedule the game without having a rush.

It is okay if the sports games still on the delay or cancel because of this pandemic because we want to be safe from the virus. We don't want to get infected while we watch the match. The online gambler is not getting infected because they can bet in their homes. But the player, the audience who watches on the stadium, can be the potential to get contaminated from other people. People will attract to watch the match like before because they don't see a live game for a long time, so that can be a trigger to see more people will get infected.

I guess we have no choice but to follow the rules that the government makes it would be very risky and for sure not allowed to make sport events at this time of COVID-19 virus pandemic.

Surely the gambling sports event would also stop operating because there will be no events or sports to bet on or gambling on, I guess the only best alternative or option to gambling or is just the typical gambling websites here. Because I think event Esport events are also canceled because it have a large crowd but I guess Esport might adjust to the situation or just make it live but I doubt it.

Screen time on the computers is increasing at this time that we have a pandemic virus spreading so for sure in the coming months or years everything is going to adjust in the situation we are in.


Today there are a lot of sports games getting canceled because of the pandemic outbreak today the coronavirus and it feels sad because out favorite teams will not play but still, it is good because they can take a rest for a while and also as a fan it is better to keep them safe and now until the virus are still active but still some in the esports industry they are still continuing the battle against different teams with the help of LAN games or just online battle or party and some of them today made a charity fund on their streams and games to help other people affected by the outbreak happens.
