The coronavirus pandemic has turned the world upside down. Sports, including boxing, have been no exception.

Fight cards have been canceled worldwide to help slow the spread of the virus and it appears nothing will change for the time being, leaving boxers without income and fans without fights to watch.

One possibility being discussed is staging shows without spectators at ringside but televising or streaming them as usual.

DAZN commentators Chris Mannix and Sergio Mora discuss the feasibility of that idea on Jabs with Mannix and Mora.

“If you want to be entertained by sports, this is a way to go. You’re going to have to scale down,” Mora said.
