BBBofC suspends boxing again

Post by Scott1 »

The BBBofC have once again suspended all boxing in the UK due to the coronavirus pandemic. As a result of the recent rise in cases, they won’t allow any fights in January

Do we see the same happening in other sports?

Boxers and teams,live production teams,commentator bubbles etc are tested very regularly. I can only put this down to the BBBoC worries of using ringside doctors/paramedics when they are needed elsewhere and the worries of someone getting sadly hurt with the ICU overload at present. If that is the case then rugby could be thinking alongside the same lines with on field paramedics/medical teams they have to use too.
