Promoters and other players in boxing have had to be creative when selecting sites for their cards during the coronavirus pandemic.
Eddie Hearn suggested he might set up a ring in the garden adjacent to his office outside London. UFC’s Dana White plans to use an island. An amphitheater in Croatia has been thrown out. And Bob Arum already is using a tightly controlled ball room in Las Vegas.
Promoter Dmitry Salita came up with a new potential site: the famous Kronk Gym in Detroit.
In this episode of The Ak & Barak Show, courtesy of DAZN, hosts Akin Reyes and Barak Bess speak with Salita about his plans to use one of boxing’s shrines for boxing cards.
The Ak & Barak Show is available on DAZN and Sirius XM Fight Nation, Channel 156.
